PublicReview= Revisions to invite com- ments from all interested persons. After the allotted time for public review and final approval by ASME, are published annually in Addenda to the Code. ‘Code Cases may be used in the construction of compo nents to be stamped with the ASME Code symbol begin: ning with the date of their approval by ASME. ‘fier Code revisions are approved by ASME, they may be used beginning with the date of issuance shown on the Addenda, Revisions, except for revisions to material specifications in Section II, Parts A and B, become manda. tory six months after such date of issuance, except for boilers or pressure vessels contracted for prior to the end Of the six-month period. Revisions to material specifica tions are originated by the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) and other recognized national or international organizations, and are usually adopted by ASME. However, those revisions may or may not have ‘any effect on the suitability of material, produced to earlier editions of specifications, for use in ASME construction, ASME material specifications approved for use in each. construction Code are listed in the Guidelines for Accept able ASTM Editions in Section Il, Parts A and B. These Guidelines list, for each specification, the latest edition adopted by ASME, and earlier and later editions considered. by ASME to be identical for ASME construction. ‘The Boiler and Pressure Vessel Committee in the formu- lation of its rules and in the establishment of maximum design and operating pressures considers materials, con- struction, methods of fabrication, inspection, and safety devices. ‘The Code Committee does not rule on whether a compo- rent shall or shall not be constructed (o the provisions of the Code, The Scope of each Section has been established to identify the components and parameters considered by the Committee in formulating the Code rules. Questions or issues regarding compliance of a specific component with the Code rules are to be directed to the ASME Certificate Holder (Manufacturer). Inquities con- ‘cerning the interpretation of the Code are to be directed to the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Committee. ASME is to be notified should questions arise concerning Improper use of an ASME Code symbol The specifications for materials given in Section If are identical with or similarto those of specifications published by ASTM, AWS, and other recognized national or intems- tonal organizations, When reference is made in an ASME material specification to a son-ASME specification for which a companion ASME specification exists, the refer- cence shall be interpreted as applying to the ASME material specification. Not all materials included in the material specifications in Section II have been adopted for Code use, Usage i limited to those materials and grades adopted by atleast one of the other Sections of the Code for applica- tion under rules of that Section, Al! materials allowed by these various Sections and used for construction within the scope of their rules shall be furnished in accordance with ‘material specifications contained in Section Il or referenced inthe Guidelines for Acceptable ASTM Editions in Section TL Parts A and B. except where otherwise provided in Code ‘Cases or in the applicable Seetion of the Code, Materials covered by these specifications are acceptable for use in items covered by the Code Sections only to the degree indicated in the applicable Section, Materials for Code use should preferably be ordered, produced, and documented ‘on this basis: Guideline for Acceptable ASTM Editions in Section If, Part A and Guideline for Acceptable ASTM Editions ia Section Hl, Part B list editions of ASME and year dates of specifications that meet ASME requirements, land which may be used in Code construction.

Itis the aim of the Society to provide recogni- tion of organizations so authorized. An organization bold ing authorization t perform various activities in accordance with the requirements of the Code may state this capability in its advertising liverature, Organizations that are authorized to use Code Sy for marking items or constructions that have bee structed and inspected in compliance with the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code ate issued Certificates of Autho- ication, Itis the aim of the Society 1o maintain the standing of the Code Symbols for the benefit of the users. the ‘enforcement jurisdictions, and the holders of the symbols who comply with al requirements Based on these objectives, the following policy has heen established on the usige in advertising of facsimiles of the symbols, Certificates of Authorization, and reference to Code construction, The American Society of Mechanical Engineers does not “approve,” “certify or nbols endorse” any item, construction, or activity and there shall be no statements or implications that might so indicate, An ization holding a Code Synibol and ora Centiticate of tate in advertising literature shat items, constructions, or activites “are built (produced or por formed) or uetivities conducted in accordance with the requirements of the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code.” or “meet the requirements of the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code” ‘The ASME Symbol shall be used only for stamping and nameplates as specifically provided in the Codie. However, facsimiles may e used for the purpose of fostering the tse of such construction, Such usage may be by an associa tion oF a society. or by a holder of a Code Symbol who Uso use the facsimile in advertising show that clearly specified items will cary the symbol.
