His- torical BPVC interpretations may also be found in the Database. CODE CASES ‘The Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code committees meet regularly to consider proposed additions and revisions to the Code and to formulate Cases to clarify the intent of existing requirements or provide, when the need is urgent, rules for ‘materials or constructions not covered by existing Code rules. Those Cases that have been adapted will appear in the appropriate 2017 Code Cases book: “Boilers and Pressure Vessels" or “Nuclear Components” Supplements will be sent or made available automatically to the purchasers of the Code Cases books up to the publication of the 2019 Code.FOREWORD™ In 1911, The American Society of Mechanical Engineers established the Boiler and Pressure Vessel Committe to for- smulate standard rules forthe construction of steam bollers and other pressure vessels In 2009, the Boiler and Pressure ‘Vessel Committee was superseded by the following committees (@ Committee on Power Boilers (1) (@) Committee on Materials (11) {@) Committee on Construction of Nuclear Facility Components (I) (@) Committee on Heating Bolles (1V) {) Committee on Nondestructive Examination (V) @ Cormittee on Pressure Vessels (VIN) (@) Committee on Welding, Brazing, and Fusing (1X) (h) Committee on Fiber-Reinforced Plastic Pressure Vessels (X) (@ Committee on Nuclear Inservice Inspection (XI) @) Committee on Transport Tanks (XH) (4) Technical Oversight Management Committee (TOMC) Where reference is made to “the Committee” inthis Foreword, each of these committees is included individually and collectively ‘The Committee's function is to establish rules of safety relating only to pressure integrity, which govern the construction™ of boilers, pressure vessels, transport tanks, and nuclear components, and the inservice inspection of nu- clear components and transport tanks The Committee also interprets these rules when questions arise regarding their Intent. The technical consistency ofthe Sections of the Code and coordination of standards development activities of the Committees is supported and guided by the Technical Oversight Management Committee. This Code does not address other safety issues relating to the construction of boilers, pressure vessels, transport tanks, or nuclear components, or the inservice inspection of nuclear components or transport tanks. Users of the Code should refer tothe pertinent codes, standards, laws, regulations or other relevant documents for safety issues other than those relating to pressure integ rity. Except for Sections XI and Xil, and with a few other exceptions, the rules do not, of practical necessity, reflect the likelihood and consequences of deterioration in service related to specific service fluids or external operating environ- rents. in formulating the rules, the Committee considers the needs of users, manufacturers, and inspectors of pressure vessels. The objective ofthe rules ist afford reasonably certain protection of life and property, and to provide a margin for deterioration in service to give a reasonably long. safe period of usefulness. Advancements indesign and materials and evidence of experience have been recognized ‘This Code contains mandatory requirements, specific prohibitions, and nonmandatory guidance for construction ac- tivities and inservice inspection and testing activities. The Code does not address all aspects ofthese activities and those aspects that are not specifically addressed should not be considered prohibited, The Code isnot @ handbook and cannot replace education, experience, and the use of engineering judgment. The phrase engineering judgment refers to technical judgments made by knowledgeable engineers experienced in the application of the Code. Engineering judgments must be consistent with Code philosophy, and such judgments must never be used to overrule mandatory requirements or specific prohibitions of the Code. ‘The Committee recognizes that tools and techniques used for design and analysis change as technology progresses and expects engineers to use good judgment inthe application of these tools. The designer is responsible for complying With Code rules and demonstrating compliance with Code equations when such equations are mandatory. The Code neither requires nor prohibits the use of computers for the design or analysis of components constructed to the ‘The information contalned inthis Foreword is not part ofthis American National Standard (ANS) and has not been processed in acordance ‘with ANSTs requirement for an ANS. Therefore, this Foreword may contain material that has no been subjected to public review ora con- ‘Sensus process. In addition, it does not contaln requirements necessary fr conformance to the Code. Construction, as ured inthis Foreword an all-inclusive term comprising materials desig, fabrication, examination Inspection, testing, certieation, and pressure rele.requirements of the Code, However, designers and engineers using computer programs for design or analysis are cau- tioned that they are responsible forall technical assumptions inherent in the programs they use and the application of these programs to their design. ‘The rules established by the Committee are not to be interpreted as approving, recommending, or endorsing any pro- prietaty or specific design, or as limiting in any way the manufacturer's freedom to choose any method of design ar any form of construction that canforms to the Code rules, The Committee meets regularly to consider revisions of the rules, new rules as dictated by technological development, Code Cases, and requests for interpretations. Only the Committee has the authority to provide official Interpretations of this Code. Requests for revisions, new rules, Gode Cases, or interpretations shall be addressed to the Secretary in writing and shall give full particulars in order to receive consideration and action (see Submittal of Technical Inquiries to the Boiler and Pressure Vessel Standards Committees). Proposed revisions to the Code resulting from inquiries will be pre sented to the Committee for appropriate action, The action of the Committee becomes effective only after confirmation by ballot of the Committee and approval by ASME. Proposed revisions to the Code approved by the Committee are sub- ‘mitted to the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) and published at http://go.asme.org/BPVCPublicReview to invite comments from al interested persons. After public review and final approval by ASME, revisions are published at regular intervals in Editions of the Code. ‘The Committee does not rule on whether a component shall or shall not be constructed to the provisions of the Code. ‘The scope of each Section has been established to identify the components and parameters considered by the Committee tn formulating the Code rules. Questions or issues regarding compliance of a specific component with the Code rules are to be directed to the ASME Certificate Holder (Manufacturer). Inquiries concerning the interpretation of the Code are to be directed to the Commnit- tee, ASME is to be notified should questions arise concerning improper use of an ASME Certification Mark, When required by context in this Section, the singular shall be interpreted as the plural, and vice versa, and the fem- {nine, masculine, or neuter gender shall be treated as such other gender as appropriate.STATEMENT OF POLICY ON THE USE OF THE CERTIFICATION MARK AND CODE AUTHORIZATION IN ADVERTISING [ASME has established procedures to authorize qualified organizations to perform various activities in accordance ‘with the requirements of the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code. Its the aim of the Society to provide recognition of organizations so authorized. An organization holding authorization to perform various activities in accordance with the requirements of the Code may state this capability in its advertising literature. Organizations that are authorized to use the Certification Mark for marking items or constructions that have been constructed and inspected in compliance with the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code are issued Certificates of ‘Authorization. Itis the alm of the Society to maintain the standing of the Certification Mark for the benefit of the users, the enforcement jurisdictions, and the holders of the Certification Mark who comply with all requirements. Based on these objectives, the following policy has been established on the usage in advertising of facsimiles of the Certification Mark, Certificates of Authorization, and reference to Code construction. The American Society of Mechanical Engineers does nat “approve “certify” “rate” or “endorse” any item, construction, or activity and there shall be no state ‘ments or implications that might so indicate. An organization holding the Certification Mark and/or a Certificate of Authorization may state in advertising literature that items, constructions, or activities “are built (produced or per: formed) or activities conducted in accordance with the requirements of the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code,” cor “meet the requirements of the ASME Boller and Pressure Vessel Code." An ASME corporate logo shall not be used by any organization other than ASME. ‘The Certification Mark shall be used only for stamping and nameplates as specifically provided in the Code. However, facsimiles may be used for the purpose of fostering the use of such construction. Such usage may be by an association or a society, or by a holder of the Certification Mark who may also use the facsimile in advertising to show that clearly spe- cified items will carry the Certification Mark, General usage is permitted only when all of a manufacturer's items are constructed under the rules. STATEMENT OF POLICY ON THE USE OF ASME MARKING TO IDENTIFY MANUFACTURED ITEMS The ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code provides rules for the construction of boilers, pressure vessels, and nuclear components. This includes requirements for materials, design, fabrication, examination, inspection, and stamping, Items constructed in accordance with all of the applicable rules of the Code are identified with the official Certification Marke described in the governing Section of the Code. Markings such as ‘ASME,’ “ASME Standard,” or any other marking including “ASME” or the Certification Mark shall not, be used on any item that is not constructed in accordance with all of the applicable requirements of the Code. Items shall not be described on ASME Data Report Forms nor on similar forms referring to ASME that tend to imply that all Code requirements have been met when, in fact, they have not been. Data Report Forms covering items not fully complying with ASME requirements should not refer to ASME or they should clearly identify all exceptions to the ASME requirements.SUBMITTAL OF TECHNICAL INQUIRIES TO THE BOILER AND «, PRESSURE VESSEL STANDARDS COMMITTEES 1 INTRODUCTION (a) The following information provides guidance to Code users for submitting technical inquiries to the applicable Boller and Pressure Vessel (BPV) Standards Committee (hereinafter referred to as the Committee). See the guidelines ‘on approval of new materials under the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code in Section II, Part D for requirements for requests that involve adding new materials to the Code. See the guidelines on approval of new welding and brazing ma- terlals im Section I, Part C for requirements for requests that involve adding new welding and brazing materials ("con- sumables") to the Code, ‘Technical inquiries can include requests for revisions or additions to the Code requirements, requests for Code Cases, or requests for Code Interpretations, as described below: (1) Code Revisions. Code revisions are considered to accommodate technological developments, to address admin- istrative requirements, to incorporate Code Cases, orto clarify Code intent. (2) Code Cases: Code Cases represent alternatives or additions to existing Code requirements. Code Cases are writ- ten asa Question and Reply, and are usually intended to be incorporated into the Code ata later date. When used, Code Cases prescribe mandatory requirements in the same sense as the text of the Code. However, users are cautioned that not all regulators, jurisdictions, or Owners automatically accept Code Cases. The most common applications for Code Cases are as follows (a) to permit early implementation of an approved Code revision based on an urgent need (6) to permit use of a new material for Code construction /e requirements prior to incorporation directly into the Gc) to gain experience with new materials or alternat Code (3) Code interpretations (-a) Code Interpretations provide clarification of the meaning of existing requirements in the Code and are pre: sented in Inquiry and Reply format, Interpretations do not introduce new requirements, (2) If existing Code text does not fully convey the meaning that was intended, or conveys conflicting require- ‘ments, and revision of the requirements is required to support the Interpretation, an Intent Interpretation willbe issued in parallel with a revision to the Code. (2) Code requirements, Code Cases, and Code Interpretations established by the Committee are not to be considered as approving, recommending, certifying, or endorsing any proprietary or specific design, or as limiting in any way the freedom of manufacturers, constructors, or Owners to choose any method of design or any form of construction that conforms to the Code requirements. (@) Inquiries that do not comply with the following guidance or that do not provide sufficient information for the Com rmittee's full understanding may result in the request being returned to the Inquirer with no action. 2 INQUIRY FORMAT ‘Submittals to the Committee should include the following information: (@) Purpose. Specify one of the following: (2) request for revision of present Code requirements (2) request for new or additional Code requirements {@) request for Code Case (2) request for Code Interpretation (®) Background. The Inquirer should provide the information needed for the Committee's understanding of the In- ‘quity, being sure to include reference to the applicable Code Section, Division, Edition, Addenda (if applicable), para- graphs, figures, and tables. Preferably, the Inquirer should provide a copy of, or relevant extracts from, the specific referenced portions of the Code.(0) Presentations. The Inquirer may desire to attend or be asked to attend a meeting of the Committee to make a for- mal presentation or to answer questions from the Committee members with regard to the Inquiry. Attendance at a BPV Standards Committee meeting shall be atthe expense of the Inqutrer. The Inquirer's attendance or lack of attendance at ‘a meeting will not be used by the Committee as a basis for acceptance or rejection of the Inquiry by the Committee. How- ever, ifthe Inquirer's request is unclear, attendance by the Inquirer or a representative may be necessary for the Com- mittee to understand the request sufficiently to be able to provide an Interpretation. Ifthe Inquirer desires to make a presentation ata Committee meeting, the Inquirer should provide advance notice to the Committee Secretary, to ensure LUme will be allotted for the presentation in the meeting agenda, The Inquirer should consider the need for additional audiovisual equipment that might not otherwise be provided by the Committee, With sufficient advance notice ta the Committee Secretary, such equipment may be made avatlable. 3 CODE REVISIONS OR ADDITIONS Requests for Code revisions or additions should include the following information: (a) Requested Revisions or Additions. For requested revisions, the Inquirer should identify those requirements of the Code that they believe should be revised, and should submit a copy of, or relevant extracts from, the appropriate require: ‘ments as they appear in the Code, marked up with the requested revision. For requested additions to the Code, the In- quirer should provide the recommended wording and should clearly indicate where they belicve the additions should be located in the Code requirements (2) Statement of Need. The Inquirer should provide a brief explanation of the need for the revision or addition. (©) Background Information. The Inquirer should provide background information to support the revision or addition, including any data or changes in technology that form the basis for the request, that will allow the Committee to ade- quately evaluate the requested revision or addition. Sketches, tables, figures, and graphs should be submitted, as appro- priate. The Inquirer should identify any pertinent portions ofthe Code that would be affected by the revision or addition and any portions of the Code that reference the requested revised or added paragraphs. 4 CODE CASES Requests for Code Cases should be accompanied by a statement of need and background information similar to that described in 3(b) and 3(0), respectively, for Code revisions or additions. The urgency of the Code Case (e.g. project un derway or imminent, new procedure) should be described. in addition, itis important that the request is in connection ‘with equipment that will bear the Certification Mark, with the exception of Section XI applications. The proposed Code Case should identify the Code Section and Division, and should be written as a Question and a Reply, in the same format as existing Code Cases. Requests for Code Cases should also indicate the applicable Code Editions and Addenda (if ap- plicable) to which the requested Code Case applies. 5 CODE INTERPRETATIONS (a) Requests for Code Interpretations should be accompanied by the following information: (1) Inquiry. The Inquirer should propose a condensed and precise Inquiry, omitting superfluous background infor- mation and, when possible, composing the Inquiry in such a way that a “yes” or a “no" Reply, with brief limitations or conditions, if needed, can be provided by the Committee. The proposed question should be technically and editorially correct. (2) Reply. The Inquirer should propose a Reply that clearly and concisely answers the proposed Inquiry question. Preferably, the Reply should be “yes” or “no,” with brief limitations or conditions, if needed. (3) Background Information. The Inquirer should provide any need or background information, such as described in 3(b) and 3(0), respectively, or Code revisions or additions, that will assist the Committee in understanding the proposed. Inquiry and Reply, If the Inquirer believes a revision of the Code requirements would be helpful to support the Interpretation, the In- 4uirer may propose such a revision for consideration by the Committee. In most cases, such a proposal is not necessary. (2) Requests for Code Interpretations should be limited to an Interpretation ofa particular requirement in the Code or in a Code Case. Except with regard to Interpreting a specific Code requirement, the Committee Is not permitted to con- sider consulting-type requests such as the following: (1) review of calculations, design drawings, welding qualifications, or descriptions of equipment or parts to de- termine compliance with Code requirements(2) request for assistance in performing any Code-prescribed functions relating to, but not limited to, material selection, designs, calculations, fabrication, inspection, pressure testing, or installation (3)a request seeking the rationale for Code requirements 6 SUBMITTALS (a) Submittal, Requests for Code Interpretation should preferably be submitted through the online Interpretation Sub- rittal Form. The form is accessible at http://goasme.org/InterpretationRequest. Upon submittal of the form, the In- quirer will receive an automatic e-mail confirming receipt. If the Inquirer is unable to use the online form, the Inquirer may mail the request to the following address: Secretary [ASME Boller and Pressure Vessel Committee ‘Two Park Avenue New York, NY 10016-5990 Allother Inquizies should be mailed to the Secretary of the BPV Committee at the address above.
