Recent Code Cases• A Review of Recent Interpretations
What’s New in ASME ?New Publication Schedule
• 2011 Publication– ASME published complete reprints (white pages) for all B&PV Code p p p ( p g )
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
• Next publication will be the 2013 Edition– No Addenda in 2012
4
– 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

What’s New in ASME ?ASME Single Mark
• Code Symbol Stamph d t t t ( h th U) f h– phased out separate stamps (such as the U) for each
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-nuclear Code Case for 18 month transition
U

Non nuclear Code Case for 18 month transition• 2710 (I, IV, X, XII), 2714 (VIII)• See Code Services Discussion database postings for further
details– Numerous errata in 2011 Addenda– ASME posted FAQ’s regarding use of the new Mark.
What’s New in ASME ?Temporary Shop Certificate
• Code Construction at Location Other than that Listed on CertificateCertificate– 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
6
– ASME would request AIA to audit Temporary Shop and verify that it is suitable for intended construction activity
– Following receipt of the AIA’s 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 Holder’s Certificate will expire

What’s New in ASME ?Temporary Shop Certificate
• Temporary Shop Used by Certificate HoldersTemporary 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 a full ASME review prior to the
7
equ e a u S e e p o to t eexpiration 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
What’s 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 st indicate in thei epo t ho the
8
– AIS must indicate in their report how the Certificate Holder’s 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

What’s 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.
• The Temporary Location Letter expiration date could(but is not required to) be listed in the Remarks.
This new policy does not affect work done at a

Important Revisions in 2010 EditionSection VIII, Division 1
• UG-19(a)(2) – design temperature for “common element” (e.g. ( )( ) g p ( gH/X tubes) based on mean wall temperature– Paragraph first published in 2006 Addenda– Result of Intent Interpretation VIII-1-04-68– Later review of paragraph and interpretation identified problems
with wording– Interpretation was revised: VIII-1-04-68R– New words in UG-19(a)(2) [Note, paragraph number was also
15
changed to UG-19(a)(3) ] “When mean metal temperature design is used, the maximum common element design temperature determined in accordance with UG-20(a) may be less than the greater of the maximum design temperatures of its adjacent chambers; however, it shall not be less than the lower of the maximum design temperatures of its adjacent chambers”
UG-19(a)(3) Example
16
• Tubes – SB-359 Mean wall design temperature = 145°F, based on heat transfer calculations
• Therefore, Appendix 23 may be used to establish maximum allowable external working pressure

Important Revisions in 2010 EditionSection VIII-1
• UG-116(j), UG-120(b), UHX-19– Marking and data report rules revised based
on the clarifications to Paragraph UG-19(a)(3). UG-116 REQUIRED MARKING(j) Either of the following arrangements may be used in marking vessels having two or more independent pressure chambers designed for the same or different operating conditions. Each detachable chamber shall be marked so as to identify it positively with the combined unit.(1) The marking may be grouped in one location on the vessel provided it is arranged so
as to indicate clearly the data applicable to each chamber. This includes the following,
17
y pp g,as applicable:
(a) for differential pressure design, the maximum differential design pressure for each common element [see UG-19(a)(2) and UHX-19.2.1(a)] (b) for mean metal temperature design, the maximum mean metal design temperature
for each common element [see UG-19(a)(3) and UHX-19.2.1(b)].
Important Revisions in 2010 EditionSection VIII-1
