We do a lot of hydrostatic testing of our product and have been tasked to build a "high pressure hydro room". Does anyone know of any standards or codes that we can look to for guidance? How do I differentiate between a "hydro room" and a "high pressure hydro room"?

Thanks,

Don't worry too much about the terminology. Concentrate on providing resources that will fullfill the range of testing required. Safety is of course paramount. This implies policies of use as well. If failure is an anticipated outcome, then containment testing may be a requirement, and the container must retain the outcome of failure.
