B31.3 - New 2004 Edition is OUT!
B31.3 - New 2004 Edition is OUT!
(OP)
Well, I've just heard that the new edition of B31.3 was issued a couple of weeks ago. And, despite the fact that we're well into 2005, it's being called the 2004 edition. Go figure. Official date of issue is April 29, 2005 with mandatory usage October 31, 2005.
Looks like hard copies only from ASME, but it is digitally available if you subsbribe to IHS.
Enjoy,

It's better for ASME to keep with the 2004 date so they can then ask for more money in 2006 for that version.

It will not only to buy the standard, and learn the changes, also somebody have to buy the upgrades of the stress programs.
My head is loosing hair only to thing about it. And my company will invert lot of money.
¿Is there somebody yet to evaluate the changes?.
