| Zusammenfassung: | The two most important of the standards which specify safety during the design, manufacture, test and installation of pressure vessels and piping systems are the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code and the American National Standard Code for Pressure Piping. This article (1) presents the basic safety theory behind the pressure vessel and piping system codes and (2) clarifies the use of the terms "safety factor" and "design factor" as currently used in pressure system design. |
