materials, fabrication, erection, test, and inspection of power and auxiliary
service piping systems for electric generation stations, industrial
institutional plants, central and district heating plants.
ASME B31.3: Standards of
Pressure Piping - Process Piping
Rules for this section have been developed considering piping
typically found in petroleum refineries; chemical, pharmaceutical, textile,
paper, semiconductor and cryogenic plants; and related processing plants and
terminals.
