ASME B31.8 Pressure Limit
ASME B31.8 Pressure Limit
(OP)
Hi,
does anyone know if B31.8 (Gas pipeline code) puts a limit on the design pressure?
i.e. is it valid for all pressure ranges? or does it cut off at 100 bar as BS 8010 does?
Thanks every one.

The maximum testing pressure is 1.50 MOP in most cases. I've seen 1.25 MOP when agreed to by two parties, which is allowable under the code if it stated so and agreed to in writing.
