ASME B31 - Standards of Pressure Piping
Introduction:
A survey of one of the most important pressure pipe
codes - ASME B31, earlier known as ANSI B31
B31 Code for pressure piping, developed by American Society of Mechanical
Engineers - ASME, covers Power Piping, Fuel Gas Piping, Process Piping,
Pipeline Transportation Systems for Liquid Hydrocarbons and Other Liquids,
Refrigeration Piping and Heat Transfer Components and Building Services
Piping
...


B31
...
This code prescribes
minimum requirements for the design, materials, fabrication, erection, test,
and inspection of power and auxiliary service piping systems for electric
generation stations, industrial institutional plants, central and district heating
plants
...


B31
...
1, but B31
...


B31
...
This Code contains rules for piping
typically found in petroleum refineries; chemical, pharmaceutical, textile,
paper, semiconductor, and cryogenic plants; and related processing plants
and terminals
...

This Code applies to piping for all fluids including: (1) raw, intermediate, and
finished chemicals; (2) petroleum products; (3) gas, steam, air and water; (4)
fluidized solids; (5) refrigerants; and (6) cryogenic fluids
...


B31
...

Piping consists of pipe, flanges, bolting, gaskets, valves, relief devices, fittings
and the pressure containing parts of other piping components
...
It does not include support
structures such as frames of buildings, buildings stanchions or foundations
Requirements for offshore pipelines are found in Chapter IX
...




B31
...

Users are advised that other piping Code Sections may provide requirements
for refrigeration piping in their respective jurisdictions
...


B31
...
This Code also covers
safety aspects of the operation and maintenance of those facilities
...
8S- Managing System Integrity of Gas Pipelines
This Standard applies to on-shore pipeline systems constructed with ferrous
materials and that transport gas
...

The principles and processes embodied in integrity management are
applicable to all pipeline systems
...

The processes and approaches within this Standard are applicable to the
entire pipeline system
...
9 - Building Services Piping
This Code Section has rules for the piping in industrial, institutional,
commercial and public buildings, and multi-unit residences, which does not
require the range of sizes, pressures, and temperatures covered in B31
...

This Code prescribes requirements for the design, materials, fabrication,
installation, inspection, examination and testing of piping systems for building
services
...

ASME B31
...
11 - Slurry Transportation Piping Systems
Design, construction, inspection, security requirements of slurry piping
systems
...


Conclusion:
The ASME B31 Code for Pressure Piping provides comprehensive guidelines
to ensure the safety, reliability, and efficiency of piping systems across
various industries
...

The code covers essential aspects such as material selection, design criteria,
fabrication methods, and inspection procedures
...
Compliance with ASME B31 not only enhances operational safety
but also ensures environmental protection and regulatory adherence
