2010 Edition 2010 Edition, 2011 Addenda

Recent Code Cases A Review of Recent Interpretations

New Publication Schedule


2011 Publication
ASME p published complete p reprints p (white ( pages) p g ) for all B&PV Code books Some books were published with their old software and some with new software (xml) Even though it is a complete reprint, it is considered an Addenda
On Data Reports, 2010 Edition and 2011 Addenda would be listed, not like when the 1998 Edition came out

Whats New in ASME ?

Next publication will be the 2013 Edition


No Addenda in 2012 Code Cases will still be published quarterly Errata will be published on ASME website as soon as approved Special Safety Notices may be published on website Can subscribe to notifications on website

ASME Standards Workshop Latest Developments May 22, 2012 in ASME Section VIII, Divisions 1 and 2, 2010 Edition

Whats New in ASME ? ASME Single Mark


Code Symbol Stamp
phased h d out t separate t stamps t ( (such h as th the U) for f each h Code Moved to a single mark for all codes new term: "Certification Designator or Designator defines the area in which the Certificate Holder is certified by ASME For example, for VIII-1, "U" , "UV" or "UD marked on the nameplate directly under the Certification Mark Non Non-nuclear nuclear Code Case for 18 month transition

Numerous errata in 2011 Addenda ASME posted FAQs regarding use of the new Mark.

2710 (I, IV, X, XII), 2714 (VIII) See Code Services Discussion database postings for further details

Whats New in ASME ? Temporary Shop Certificate


Code Construction at Location Other than that Listed on Certificate
Certificate Holder may request ASME to authorize code construction at another location
Intended for situations where Cert. Holder needs additional production space to handle overflow work, or perhaps access to a larger crane

Certificate Holder would apply to ASME requesting permission to fabricate at additional location (temporary shop) ASME would request AIA to audit Temporary Shop and verify that it is suitable for intended construction activity Following receipt of the AIAs audit report, ASME may issue a Letter authorizing temporary use of a new shop location for a period of not longer than one year or to the time the Certificate Holders Certificate will expire

Whats New in ASME ? Temporary Shop Certificate


Temporary Shop Used by Certificate Holders (cont.)
ASME accepts AIA audit report and $1,305 fee ASME will issue to the Certificate Holder a Letter Upon expiration of the letter, further extension to allow the temporary shop to continue operation will require equ e a full u ASME S review e e p prior o to t the e expiration of the authorization No more than one temporary use Letter issued to a Certificate Holder at any one time and no more than two temporary use letters issued during a three year period

Whats New in ASME ? Temporary Shop Certificate


Temporary Shop Used by Certificate Holders ( (cont.) )

If two temporary use letters are issued during the three year period they must be for different temporary shop locations (i.e. during the three year period a temporary shop address would be eligible for only (1) one-year temporary use letter). AIS m must st indicate in their thei report epo t how ho the Certificate Holders assigned AI/AIS will perform inspections at the temporary Code shop, when the temporary Code shop is located a distance greater than 200 miles from the Code shop

Whats New in ASME ? Temporary Shop Certificate


Temporary Shop Used by Certificate Holders ( (cont.) )

The address, Certificate Number and expiration date of the Manufacturer to be listed on the Data Report would be that of the Certificate of Authorization, not the temporary location. This new policy does not affect work done at a temporary, intermediate site location, where the intermediate part of that statement means a ship dock, rail yard, etc. where pieces of the pressure vessel are further assembled before being shipped to the final location.
The Temporary Location Letter expiration date could (but is not required to) be listed in the Remarks.
