To meet this need, the

40、 American Engineering Standards Committee (later changed to theAmerican Standards Association, now the American National Standards Institute) initiated ProjectB31 in March 1926 at the request of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers and withthat Society as sole sponsor. After several years of

41、 work by Sectional Committee B31 and itssubcommittees, a first Edition was published in 1935 as an American Tentative Standard Codefor Pressure Piping.A revision of the original tentative standard began in 1937. Several more years of effort weregiven to securing uniformity among sections, eliminatin

42、g divergent requirements and discrepan-cies, keeping the Code abreast of current developments in welding technique, calculating stresscomputations, and including reference to new dimensional and material standards. During thisperiod, a new section on refrigeration piping was prepared in cooperation

43、with the AmericanSociety of Refrigeration Engineers and complemented the American Standard Code for MechanicalRefrigeration. This work culminated in the 1942 American Standard Code for Pressure Piping.Supplements 1 and 2 of the 1942 Code, which appeared in 1944 and 1947, respectively, introducednew

44、dimensional and material standards, a new formula for pipe wall thickness, and morecomprehensive requirements for instrument and control piping. Shortly after the 1942 Code wasissued, procedures were established for handling inquiries requiring explanation or interpretationof Code requirements and f

45、or publishing such inquiries and answers in Mechanical Engineeringfor the information of all concerned.By 1948, continuing increases in the severity of service conditions combined with the develop-ment of new materials and designs to meet these higher requirements warranted more extensivechanges in

46、the Code than could be provided from supplements alone. The decision was reachedby the American Standards Association and the sponsor to reorganize the sectional committeeand its several subcommittees and to invite the various interested bodies to reaffirm their represen-tatives or to designate new

47、ones.Because of the wide field involved, between 30 and 40 different engineering societies, govern-ment bureaus, trade associations, institutes, and similar organizations had one or more representa-tives on the sectional committee, plus a few “members at large” to represent general interests.Code ac

48、tivities were subdivided according to the scope of the several sections. General directionof Code activities rested with the Standards Committee officers and an executive committee,membership of which consisted principally of Standards Committee officers and section chairmen.Following its reorganiza

49、tion in 1948, Standards Committee B31 made an intensive review ofthe 1942 Code that resulted in(a) a general revision and extension of requirements to agree with present-day practice(b) the revision of references to existing dimensional standards and material specifications andthe addition of references to the new ones(c) the clarification of ambiguous or conflicting requirementsA revision was presented for letter ballot vote of Standards Committee B31. Following approvalby this body, the project was approved by the sponsor organization and by the American StandardsAssociation. It
