B 31.3 is an ASME code for Process piping, Multiple time we come across situation, where we need to calculate the design pressure for a pipe. In such cases, ASME VIII-Div-1 seems helpless, and B 31-3 comes for rescue. Clause 304.1.2 talks about Straight pipe under internal pressure, Where, P > […]
Scope & Responsibility: Let’s start with comparing the scope & Responsibilities for various codes. Following table will give an overview Characteristics ASME VIII-Div-1 EN 13445 GB-150 Scope Ref ASME VIII-1 U-1 Pressure Not exceeding 20 MPa U-1(d) Design by Formula Minimum pressure 15 psi (g) [1 bar(g)] Minimum -ve pressure 15 psi (g) [1bar(g)] […]
With my next feeds, I’ll be comparing following Code on various aspects European Code : EN 13445 American Code : ASME Section VIII Div. 1 German Code: AD : 2000 Chinese Code: GB: 150 Keep watching!
After getting my self stablaized in new company… now i’m evaluating the world around. Filtration is the business, which is common to many needs, and hence it has been seen across the continent Which brings me to todays discuss, short but sweet, and as usual with a promise to update you more as i learn more about this. From Pressure […]
We talk about type of welds & weld joints, the talk on welding will be incomplete if we don’t talk about weld defect! Some weld defects are visible, some are visible with aide & some are invisible and need extra process to reveal them. Before we go into process of different methods to see those […]

Learning Welding doesn’t stop only at knowing welding process. Followings are more important things selecting welding process : 1. What? What are we welding (Metal type, thickness, chemistry)2. How ? How are we welding (Welding Position)3. Where ? where are we welding (e.g in water, near sea shore, inside, outdoor) We will discuss this in […]
if you are new… visiting vendor’s place or going for some technical discussion.Following abbreviation will help you what “geek” talk they are doing 🙂

10 year ago after completing my degree in mechanical engineering , when i joined the industry, as a fresher Fabrication & Pressure vessel both were new to me. I took help of good old hand books from Dennis Moss and Megyesy. Thought they where great tool.. I understood one fact hard way, if you ignore […]
