Introduction to ASME Section VIII Div 1 (2025 Edition) | Pressure Vessel Safety

Описание: The ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code (Section VIII, Division 1) is the global standard for safety. But with over 600 pages of rules, where do you start?

In this overview presentation, we break down the 2025 Edition of the Code into its essential components. Whether you are a student, a fabricator, or a seasoned engineer, this 5-minute crash course covers the structure you need to know to design and build safe pressure equipment.

📘 In this video, we cover:

The Scope (U-1): The "15 PSI" rule—when does a tank become a pressure vessel?

Code Structure: Navigating Subsection A (General), B (Fabrication), and C (Materials).

Design Fundamentals: Introduction to Hoop Stress (UG-27) and Head Selection (UG-32).

Fabrication & Welding: Understanding Joint Categories and Efficiency (Part UW).

Testing: The rules for Impact Testing and the final Hydrostatic Test (1.3x).

🎓 Ready to Master the Code? This video is just the introduction. We have created a full, step-by-step video training series that goes deep into every calculation and rule mentioned here.
