asme VIII
When a newly manufactured pressure vessel is to be certified from ASME AI (Authorized Inspector), the AI stamps a form called "ASME U1A Form" with signature certifying that the vessel fabrication has been done according to the rules laid down by ASME Section VIII.
ASME Section XIII does not define a minimum design pressure. Many vessels are designed for full vacuum according to the requirements of the code. A storage tank (API 650 or API 620) can be used in place of a pressure vessel provided that the gage pressure is not more than 15 pounds per square inch.
An ASME "U" stamp designates a vessel as a "pressure vessel" as defined and regulated by ASME codes
ANSI = American National Standards Institute ASME - American Society of Mechanical Engineers ANSI is mainly a standards-keeping institution. ASME issues standards, but has other activities also (they publish a magazine, for instance).
The BS equivalent of ASME B30.9, which pertains to slings used for lifting, is BS 7121. This British Standard outlines the requirements for the safe use of lifting equipment and accessories, including slings, ensuring proper design, manufacture, testing, and maintenance for safe lifting operations.
Yes as per ASME section IX the PQR is required to be qualified as per requirements but there is no relation with root opening.
Secret NDT Method which ASME don't want to shear
To calculate the minimum source to object distance per ASME Section V, you need to refer to the specific requirements of the examination method being used (e.g., Ultrasonic Testing, Radiographic Testing, etc.) Each method has its own criteria for the minimum source to object distance which must be followed to ensure accurate testing and reliable results. Refer to the appropriate standard or procedure outlined in ASME Section V for the specific details applicable to your examination method.
Yes - Cold bending is allowed by ASME B31.3. The requirements are detailed in Section 332. Generally the most difficult aspect of cold bending to ASME B31.3 standards is the requirement that the pipe not exceed 8% of the outside nominal diameter for internal pressure and 3% for external pressure. Thin wall tube and pipe generally require a mandrel bend.

It Deals the liquid penetrant test. and its principal is capillary action
The ASME U stamp designates an unfired pressure vessel of more than 35 gallons (4.68 cu. ft.) has been built to ASME Code specifications, under ASME Code section 8. A U-1 form must be filed and signed by the authorized inspector for each and every pressure vessel built. The ASME U2 stamp is for unfired pressure vessels not built to ASME section 8 div. 1 standards, but under the alternative rules, has been inspected and found to comply with acceptable construction methods. A U-1 form signed by an authorized inspector must be filed for each such vessel, along with a description of the methods of construction used. The ASME U3 stamp is for high pressure (over 600 psi?) unfired pressure vessels. The ASME UM stamp is for pressure vessels less than 35 gallons capacity.
ASME was created in 1880.
What is difference between ASME B16 & ASME B16.5 Flange
The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) Section IX covers the topic of Welding Procedure Qualification and Welder qualifications. This particular section of ASME does not address Non-Destructive Testing (NDE) personnel. To find the NDT recertification requirements for ASME applications, refer to ASME Section V (Nondestructive Examination), Article 1, T-120(e). This article will direct you to The American Society of Non-Destructive testing (ASNT). ASNT-SNT-TC-1A and/or ASNT CP-189 which are the primary documents that govern the certification and recertification of NDT personnel for each level of certification (Level I, II, and III) for each inspection process (PT, MT, RT, etc.). ASNT recommended maximum recertification intervals per ASNT SNT-TC-1A (9.5) are: Levels I and II= three years. Level III = five years. These recertifications can be completed by evidence of training or when deemed necessary by the empolyer's NDT Level III personnel. The certification and recertification guidelines are included in the employer's written practice documents.
