A Code is a standard that has been adopted by one or
more governmental bodies and has the force of lawe.g. o e.One can refer ASME Code as ASME Standard when it
.Code will not retroactive, except errata.

What is Standard?
Standard is a set of technical definitions and guidelines,
“ how to” instructions for designers, manufacturers andusers.Standards promote safety, reliability, productivity andefficiency in almost every industry that relies on engineering
.Standards can run from a few paragraphs to hundreds ofpages, and are written by experts with knowledge and
Standards do not enforce of law but become mandatory
when they have been incorporated into a business contractor ncorporate nto regu at ons.Their use is voluntary because they serve as guidelines.

Only ASME BPVC can issue interpretations.
They are official opinion of ASME BPVC, starting in 1977.Written replies, explain or clarify rules to inquiriesconcerning interpretation of technical aspects of the Code.
.Interpretation do not establish new Code rules.Used to ublished semiannuall Jul and December until2004 and issue annually in July beginning with 2004 Edition.Not a part of the Code, to receive the paperback volume of

Formulated by ASME Code committees for “ special situation” so called a Case.Clarify existing Code requirements.Provide rule for new materials and new form of cons tructions when not covered by
, .Code case have a limited life, usually 3 years, unless the Committee reaffi rms them foranother 3 years or may also be annul led at any time by the committee.Using Code cases is not mandatory. They are permissive only (“ It is the opinion of thecommittee that……). They are an extension of the Code.When a Code Case is used, the Code Case number must be list ed on the Data Report.Effective immediately upon ASME approval. (to provide for the early implementation ofnew or revised Code rule since it need only two or three months to approve it!!! ).Can be become a part of the Code after gain experience over a period of time with new

Based on historical data and experience which hasbeen a lied to the Code rules over the eriodfrom 1911 to the present.Therefore, the Code are not design Codes but
rather, a set of checks and balances to be appliedto the design once formulated.Is written as if one were viewing a finishedconstruction.

Allow mixing of different measuring units.Only one system is expected in all aspect of design. However, the local customary units may
be used to design and document of that component. Similarly, for proprietary components. .When separate equations are provided for both units (SI unit or US customary unit), otherlocal customary units may be converted and used in that equation. The result obtained fromexecution of these equations may be converted to other units.Production, measurement and test equipment, drawings, welding procedure specifications,we ng proce ure an per ormance qua ca ons, an o er a r ca on ocumen s may e n
U.S. Customary, SI, or local customary units in accordance with the fabricator's practice.When values shown in calculations and analysis, fabrication documents, or measurement andtest equipment are in different units, any conversions necessary for verification of Codecompliance and to ensure that dimensional consistency is maintained, shall be in accordancew e o ow ng:
(a) Conversion factors (found in non-mandatory Appendix GG) shall be accurate to at leastfour significant figures.
(b) The results of conversions of units shall be expressed to a minimum of three significant. All entries on a Manufacturer's Data Report and data for Code required nameplate markingshall be in units consistent with the fabrication drawings for the component using U.S.Customary, SI, or local customary units. It is acceptable to show alternate unitsparenthetically.
