21、sign and Retrofit of Piping Systems . 63Index 67ivFOREWORDThe need for a national code for pressure piping became increasingly evident from 1915 to1925. The American Standards Association (ASA) initiated the B31 Project in March 1926 to meetthat need. The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (AS

22、ME) proposed the work and hasserved as sponsor since its inception.The first edition was published in 1935 as the American Tentative Standard Code for PressurePiping. To keep the Code abreast of developments in design, welding, and of new standards andspecifications, as well as of developments in se

23、rvice conditions, new or supplementary editionswere issued as follows:B31.1-1942 American Standard Code for Pressure PipingB31.1a-1944 Supplement 1B31.1b-1947 Supplement 2B31.1-1951 American Standard Code for Pressure PipingB31.1a-1953 Supplement 1 to B31.1-1951B31.1-1955 American Standard Code for

24、Pressure PipingIn 1955, a decision was made to develop and publish separate Code Sections for variousindustries. The current Sections areB31.1 Power PipingB31.3 Process PipingB31.4 Pipeline Transportation Systems for Liquids and SlurriesB31.5 Refrigeration Piping and Heat Transfer ComponentsB31.8 Ga

25、s Transmission and Distribution Piping SystemsB31.9 Building Services PipingB31.12 Hydrogen Piping and PipelinesIn 1969, ASA, renamed the United States of America Standards Institute (USASI), became theAmerican National Standards Institute (ANSI), and the B31 Sectional Committee became theB31 Standa

26、rds Committee. In 1978, ASME was granted accreditation by ANSI to organize theB31 Committee as the ASME Code for Pressure Piping, with Code Sections designated asANSI/ASME B31.Need for a separate Building Services Section of the Code for Pressure Piping was recognizedfor several years. This new Code

27、 Section, ASME B31.9 Building Services Piping, first issued in1982, was developed to fill that need.The Code has intentionally been written on a conservative basis in order to avoid the necessityfor complex design, fabrication, and inspection criteria. For this reason, application of this Codeis exp

28、ected to be simple and straightforward.Metric (SI) units have been added in parentheses after U.S. Customary units. This Code isbased on U.S. Customary units. The 2008 edition was approved by ANSI on April 1, 2008, anddesignated as ASME B31.9-2008.The 2011 edition of B31.9 contained revisions to the

29、 definitions and materials section of theStandard. Additionally, the allowable stress values were updated to the 3.5 design margin.The 2014 edition of B31.9 includes revisions to materials and the standards for material specifica-tions, and other errata found in the Code.Following approval by the B3

30、1 Main Committee and the ASME Board on Pressure TechnologyCodes and Standards, and after public review, this Code Section was approved by ANSI onMarch 18, 2014.vASME B31 COMMITTEECode for Pressure Piping(The following is the roster of the Committee at the time of approval of this Code.)STANDARDS COM

32、h the need for the designer or for competentengineering judgment.To the greatest possible extent, Code requirements for design are stated in terms of basic designprinciples and formulas. These are supplemented as necessary with specific requirements toensure uniform application of principles and to

33、guide selection and application of piping elements.The Code prohibits designs and practices known to be unsafe and contains warnings wherecaution, but not prohibition, is warranted.(a) This Code Section includes(1) references to acceptable material specifications and component standards, includingdi

34、mensional requirements and pressuretemperature ratings(2) requirements for design of components and assemblies, including pipe supports(3) requirements and data for evaluation and limitation of stresses, reactions, and movementsassociated with pressure, temperature changes, and other forces(4) guida

35、nce and limitations on the selection and application of materials, components, andjoining methods(5) requirements for the fabrication, assembly, and erection of piping(6) requirements for examination, inspection, and testing of pipingIt is intended that this Edition of Code Section B31.9 not be retr

36、oactive. Unless agreement isspecifically made between contracting parties to use another issue, or the regulatory body havingjurisdiction imposes the use of another issue, the latest edition issued at least 6 months prior tothe original contract date for the first phase of activity covering a piping

37、 system or systems shallbe the governing document for all design, materials, fabrication, erection, examination, and testingfor the piping until the completion of the work and initial operation.Users of this Code are cautioned against making use of revisions without assurance that theyare acceptable

38、 to the proper authorities in the jurisdiction where the piping is to be installed.Code users will note that clauses in the Code are not necessarily numbered consecutively. Suchdiscontinuities result from following a common outline, insofar as practicable, for all CodeSections. In this way, correspo

39、nding material is correspondingly numbered in most Code Sections,thus facilitating reference by those who have occasion to use more than one Section.The Code is under the direction of ASME Committee B31, Code for Pressure Piping, which isorganized and operates under ASME procedures that have been ac

40、credited by the AmericanNational Standards Institute. The Committee is a continuing one and keeps all Code Sectionscurrent with new developments in materials, construction, and industrial practice. New editionsare published at intervals of 3 to 5 years.It is the owners responsibility to select the C

41、ode Section that most nearly applies to a proposedpiping installation. Different Code Sections may apply to different parts of an installation. Factorsto be considered by the owner include: limitations of the Code Section, jurisdictional requirements,and the applicability of other codes and standard

42、s. All applicable requirements of the selectedCode Section shall be met, and the owner should impose additional requirements supplementingthose of the Code in order to ensure safe piping for the proposed installation.viii(b) Rules for each Code Section have been developed considering the need for ap

Applications considered for each CodeSection include(1) B31.1,PowerPiping piping typically found in electric power generating stations, indus-trial and institutional plants, geothermal heating systems, and central and district heating
