Piping Codes for steel plant
Piping Codes for steel plant
(OP)
Dear Folks:
I am going to begin the design of steel plant, so I need to define the codes for apply.
Do you know what piping codes can I apply for design?
ASME B31.1 Power Plant, motion fluid, generally for electric generation, like steam.
ASME B31.3 Process Piping. Is there some place of steel plant that I can use this kind of code? It covers Oil&Gas, Petrochemical.
ASME B31.9 Building services, This code can apply for services like air, dry air, utility water, demin water, cooling water, argon, O2, pure water, Nitrogen gas, when conditions don't exceed rating #150.
For ducts, services like Blast Furnace Gas, Coke oven gas and converter gas; iis it possible to use SMACNA-ANSI, for industrial application?
there some other services that I can't classify inside of these codes, like: LPG Gas from city, Hydraulic oil, grease.
All of these assumptios are correct? Please your feedback with this.
thanks for the support

Luis Felipe

RE: Piping Codes for steel plant
I don't know of anything specific to steel production so I would reconmmend ASME B31.1 / B31.3, ASME VIII Div 2 and similar.

All project documents shall be provided to Contractors/Subcontractors as a complete package during bidding/tendering stage. Thus you shall strictly follow the same.
