ASME Boiler & Pressure Vessel Welding Standards - SteamWorks

Boilers have to withstand extreme pressure and stress. The swing of pressure will put the vessel and its material and construction to the test. The ASME or American Society of Mechanical Engineers sets regulations and standards that have to be followed for the construction and repair of these steam and hot water boilers. From the manways, tube installations, vessel construction, tube sheet, and all structural components the construction of a boiler relies on these welds. Today on SteamWorks, Edward is going to talk about some of these regulations and standards required for the code welding of boilers and pressure vessels.

That was interesting. I completed a Boilermakers Union apprenticeship in England in 1980. I immigrated to Sacramento, Ca and joined the Sheet Metal Workers LU 162 for 20 years then we merged with LU 104 for a dozen more years.. I retired last year with 5 welding certs and 34 years in the industry, all Union. I enjoyed your video and do remember "walking the cup" on Tig welds many a time but mostly used E7018 on structural work in the80's and 90's then a lot of flux-core ,.045 with dual shield gas on structural parts too. I had D9.1 Stainless Steel overhead tri-mix. .125 to .250; D9.1 same range 75/25 gas with ASTM A 653 Steel overhead; D1.1 .125 to 0.750 Flat, Overhead, Vertical E70T-1 75/25 gas.; D1.1 E7018 Flat, Overhead , Vertical .125 to .750. Steel A36.Think my 5th cert, was Tig Stainless Overhead .125 to .750 . Now I am 58 and retired and enjoying your videos.

Thanks!

Especially here in Sacramento with seismic work. All inspected and signed off.

[@stephenhope7319]

All my welding was inspected, either in shop or later when I went to install.
