Does the ASME address anyhow the loosening failure risk of bolted joints under vibration?
I do not find anything written in the entire ASME collection.

Thanks!!!
 
This is typical post-construction stuff, whereas design code are for new construction.
You might find something in one of the ASME PCC standards, but Im not sure. Or ASME OM, which has a section on vibration for piping systems.
