I suspect that you are biased (as ASME commitee member you are probably contributor to the selection of the picture), hence your vote should be void. The question is still valid and require a solid engineering justification. How dare they...

For newcomers the code is complicated enough as it is
RE: ASME VIII Div 1 - 2007
Though I'll tend to agree, a shot of a vessel might have been more appropriate.
As for solid engineering justification - well, we could call it "round off error" or "within an order of magnitude" or something. After all, consider some alternatives: The cover could have had a photo of an airplane (still, generally round, long, and pressurized), a cruise ship (a.k.a. a "vessel"), a pretty scene of colorful fall leaves, perhaps a portrait of some global leader, children playing soccer, folks enjoying the sun at a beach...
But... I gotta wonder why it took so long for roca to notice?

The reason I postulate the above as being the case, is that there is an Nuclear Regulatory Commission brochure, intended to provide the general public a basic understanding of what NRC does. In the brochure, in the middle of the discussion about NRC's oversight of nuclear medicine, there's a nice picture of a linear accelerator. NRC doesn't regulate linear accelerators...

I'm actually a brick layer. Designing static equipment is something i do on the side so I don't look at the code too often

We have just had the coldest winter in 65 years in Sydney. Thankfully we had global warming or our little tootsies would have frozen off.

When industry needs a lot of people with a certain skill, job requirements loosen and everybody qualifies.
When they do not require that skill, a steel detailing job that originally needed a designer suddenly requires a structural PHD.
Its all a scam...
