ABOUT ASME
ASME was founded in 1880 as a non-profit educational institution to provide a setting for engineers to discuss the concerns brought by
the rise of industrialization and mechanization. – Core values include:
• Embrace integrity and ethical conduct• Embrace diversity and respect the dignity and culture of all
people• Nurture and treasure the environment and our natural and man-
made resources• Facilitate the development, dissemination and application of
engineering knowledge• Promote the benefits of continuing education and of engineering
education• Respect and document engineering history while continually
embracing change• Promote the technical and societal contribution of engineers

History of the ASME Stamp
• June 24, 1915– Case No. 10: Erie City Iron Works asked
where the stamp specified in para. 332 might be obtained
– Stamps could be obtained from ASME at a Price of $3.00
• March 2, 1922– New certificates and a consecutive number
were issued to each company holding a stamp for the purpose of registration
![Page 11: GLOBAL CHANGE: HOW ASME RESPONDS TO THE … · global change: how asme responds to the needs of the pressure equipment industry ... •code case 2695 to use section viii,](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022011801/5ade14917f8b9aeb668dd472/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)

History of the ASME Stamp
• April 25, 1924– Registry shows a total of 222 stamps were
issued• October 26, 1928
– Form of stamp changed from a clover leaf with an “S” for all vessels to a clover leaf with S, L, H, M, or U in Center
• July 1, 2011– Code revisions published for the use of a

What and Why?
• ASME had 28 conformity assessment marks– 25 BPV “Code Symbol Stamps”– Certified companies in 74 countries
• Registered as trademarks in the U.S. and many other countries– Registration is a lengthy process requiring
“demonstration of use” in each country– Registrations must be renewed, showing continued
use, generally on a ten-year cycle• Full protection requires registration in 100+
countries where stamped products are used• Failure to protect the marks could result in
loss of trademark status

Solution: Create a Single Mark
• Single mark to be used for all product certification programs– Boiler & Pressure Vessel Code– Reinforced Thermoset Plastic (RTP)– Bioprocessing Equipment (BPE)
• Link established to construction code through “Certification Designator”– U, S, PP, RTP, etc.
• Slight modifications to nameplates

ASME & The PED
General:•ASME Standards do not give presumption of conformity like EN standards do•ASME Standards do provide coverage of most of the Essential Safety Requirements•ASME published 2 Guides for ASME Stamp Holders to assist in identifying areas where additional steps must be taken to meet the rest of the ESR’s (being updated later this year)

ASME & The PED
General:•When using ASME standards, it is the Manufacturer’s responsibility to demonstrate to the notified body that the ESR’s have been met•There are several notified bodies operating around the world who are familiar with ASME standards and know that the key areas that need to be addressed are……

Key Areas to be Addressed
•Permanent Joining•Non-destructive Tests•Materials
![Page 38: GLOBAL CHANGE: HOW ASME RESPONDS TO THE … · global change: how asme responds to the needs of the pressure equipment industry ... •code case 2695 to use section viii,](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022011801/5ade14917f8b9aeb668dd472/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
38
ASME & The PED
Permanent Joining•Personnel approvals must be done by “…examinations and tests as set out in the appropriate harmonized standards or equivalent examinations and tests…”•Users of ASME standards in Europe generally already had their personnel qualified through a notified body or an RTPO•Not much of a burden
![Page 39: GLOBAL CHANGE: HOW ASME RESPONDS TO THE … · global change: how asme responds to the needs of the pressure equipment industry ... •code case 2695 to use section viii,](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022011801/5ade14917f8b9aeb668dd472/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
39
ASME & The PED
Permanent Joining•Non-European Manufacturers generally had to requalify their personnel through a notified body or an RTPO•A significant short term cost, but not a long term obstacle
![Page 40: GLOBAL CHANGE: HOW ASME RESPONDS TO THE … · global change: how asme responds to the needs of the pressure equipment industry ... •code case 2695 to use section viii,](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022011801/5ade14917f8b9aeb668dd472/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
40
ASME & The PED
Non-destructive Tests•“…must be carried out by suitable qualified personnel….approved by an RTPO…” (for categories III & IV)•No mention of “harmonized standards or equivalent” as with joining•Again, non-European manufacturers had to requalify their NDT personnel using an RTPO –another one time expense

ASME & The PED
Materials•Three ways to use materials in pressure equipment:
– Harmonized Standards– European Approval of Materials– Particular Material Appraisal

42
ASME & The PED
Materials•ASME material specs are not harmonized standards•ASME worked with a French manufacturer to apply for European Approval of Materials for some commonly used ASME materials – the application was denied by the European Commission

43
ASME & The PED
Materials•Article 11, para 5: “The notified body which issued the European approval for pressure equipment materials shall withdraw that approval if it finds that it should not have been issued for (sic) if the type of materials is covered by a harmonized standard.”•No EAM’s have been issued•ASME materials are used only through PMA’s, which are performed between the Manufacturer and the notified body.

ASME & The PED
Some Steps taken to Align•Code Case for Guaranteed Material Properties
– Guideline 7/24 relates to the material manufacturer guaranteeing the design values contained in the material specification.
– Code Case 2556-2 links the design values in Section II Part D to the material specification guaranteed by the material manufacturer

ASME & The PED
Some Steps taken to Align•BPV Task Group formed to look at global NDT qualification procedures.
– Goal is to develop performance based criteria for knowledge and skills to perform NDT

CLOSING REMARKS
ASME BPV Committees meet four times a year to take action on revisions introducing new
technologies, Code Cases providing alternative rules, and official interpretations of Code rules.
Requests for these actions come directly from users of the ASME Code – a circle of
information exchange that benefits the global pressure equipment industry.
