Up Topic Welding Industry / ASME Codes / Copy of B31.3
- - By SammyShine (**) Date 03-16-2010 17:03
We are looking at a Job that requires welding to Spec B31.3. I was wondering if anyone has a copy we could borrow to find out what this spec entails. Or if someone has a used copy we could purchase ASAP.
Thanks

Hi SammyShine!

To clarify, ASME B31.3 is a construction code and NOT a welding code since ASME Section IX is the welding code... Now, in the contract documents and specifications, there would be a list of specifications such as the construction code specification you referenced... Is there a year that goes along with "ASME B31.3" after wards... in other words, is there a year written right after B31.3??? If there isn't, then you will more than likely need to acquire the most recent edition of ASME B31.3...

If this is indeed the case, then you will have to purchase B31.3 directly from ASME:

http://catalog.asme.org/Codes/PrintBook/B313_2008_Process_Piping.cfm

Here's a book and a short course to help you become more familiar in navigating this code:

http://catalog.asme.org/Education/ShortCourse/B313_Process_Piping.cfm

http://catalog.asme.org/books/PrintBook/PPG3ED_Process_Piping.cfm

Now as far as purchasing a used  code book for any previous editions, you may want to try Ebay. ;) And I don't know of anyone who would let you borrow their book unless you know someone else that is an inspector and is willing to do so! ;) In any event, good luck! ;)

Respectfully,
Henry
