INTERPRETATIONS VOLUME 61 — SECTION VIII-2

Replies to Technical Inquiries January 1, 2010 through December 31, 2010

FOREWORD
GENERAL INFORMATION
This publication includes all written interpretations issued between the indicated dates by the ASME Staff on behalf of
the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Committee in response to inquiries concerning interpretations of the ASME Boiler
and Pressure Vessel Code. A contents is also included that lists subjects specific to the interpretations covered in the
individual volume.
These interpretations are taken verbatim from the original letters, except for a few typographical and editorial
corrections made for the purpose of improved clarity. In some instances, a review of the interpretation revealed a need for
corrections of a technical nature. In these cases, a revised interpretation is presented bearing the original interpretation
number with the suffix R and the original file number with an asterisk. Following these revised interpretations, new
interpretations and revisions to them issued during the indicated dates are assigned interpretation numbers in
chronological order. Interpretations applying to more than one Code Section appear with the interpretations for each
affected Section.
ASME procedures provide for reconsideration of these interpretations when or if additional information is available
that the inquirer believes might affect the interpretation. Further, persons aggrieved by an interpretation may appeal to
the cognizant ASME committee or subcommittee. As stated in the Statement of Policy in the Code documents, ASME does
not “approve,” “certify,” “rate,” or “endorse” any item, construction, proprietary device, or activity.
An interpretation applies either to the Edition and Addenda in effect on the date of issuance of the interpretation or the
Edition and Addenda stated in the interpretation. Subsequent revisions to the Code may supersede the interpretation.
For detailed instructions, see "Submittal of Technical Inquiries to the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Committee" in
the front matter.

SUBJECT AND NUMERICAL INDEXES

Subject and numerical indexes (if applicable) have been prepared to assist the user in locating interpretations by
subject matter or by location in the Code. They cover interpretations issued from Volume 12 up to and including the
present volume, and will be updated with each volume.

 SECTION VIII-2 — INTERPRETATIONS VOL. 61

Interpretation: VIII-2-10-02

Subject: Section VIII, Division 1; Appendix 10; Division 2, Annex 2.E; Division 3, Mandatory Appendix 2: Record Retention
(2007 Edition, 2008 Addenda)
Date Issued: January 11, 2010
File: 08-1207

Question: Is it required by the rules of ASME Section VIII, Division 1, Appendix 10, para. 10-13, or ASME Section VIII,
Division 2, Part 2, Annex 2.E, para. 2.E.13, or ASME Section VIII, Division 3, Mandatory Appendix 2, para. 2-121 that
records as required by the aforementioned sections be maintained in a paper form?
Reply: No.
NOTE: This interpretation also appears as VIII-1-10-13 (in Section VIII, Division 1) and VIII-3-10-1 (in Section VIII, Division 3).

Interpretation: VIII-2-10-03

Subject: Section VIII, Division 2; 5.5.2.4 (2007 Edition, 2008 Addenda), Query on Fatigue Analysis Screening, Method B
Date Issued: March 24, 2010
File: 10-228

Question: When using the Method B exemption from fatigue analysis rules of 5.5.2.4(e), the maximum temperature
difference must be determined between any two adjacent points on the vessel during normal operation, and during
startup and shutdown. The term “adjacent points” is as defined in 5.5.2.3(d). When considering a vessel on a support skirt,
is it required to consider, as an adjacent point, that part of the support skirt that is within distance from the vessel
shell?
Reply: Yes.

Interpretation: VIII-2-10-04

Subject: Code Case 2235-9(i)(3), Section VIII, Divisions 1 and 2; Use of Ultrasonic Examination in Lieu of Radiography
Date Issued: April 30, 2010
File: 09-573

Question: When implementing Code Case 2235-9, may a flaw that was detected during the initial computerized
examination be evaluated using a supplemental manual technique for acceptance?
Reply: Yes, provided the supplemental manual technique has been qualified and demonstrated to size similar flaws at
similar material depths.
