To reat this eed the American Engineering Standards ‘Committee (later changed tothe American Standards Assocation initiated Project BS in March 1926 atthe request of The American Society of Mechanical Eagi- ‘ees, and with that society assole sponsor. After sx- ral years’ work by Sectional Commitee BSI and its subcommites, «fst edton was published in 1938 as fn American Tentative Standard Code for Pressure Ping 'A revision of the orginal tenative standard was begun in 1937, Several more years effort was given to securing uniformity between sections and to climint ing divergent requivemeats snd discrepancies t well sto keeping the code abreast of current developments in welding technique, stress computations, and refer: ences to new dimensional and material standards. Dar ing ths period anew setion was add on refigeration piping. prepared in cooperation with The American Soviet Of Refigeration Engine and complementing the American Standard Code for Mechanical Relig faton. This work calminated in the 1942 American Standard Code for Pressure Piping. ‘Supplements and 2 of the 1982 code which ap- ‘peared in 1944 and 1947, respectively, introduced new ‘imensional and matevial standards, anew formulae Pipe wall thickness, and more comprehensive requie- tment for instrument and contol piping. Sholly afer ‘the 1942 code was issued, procedures were established for handling inguites that require explanation or intr- pretation of code requirements and for polishing such Inguiies and answers in Mechanical Eninering for the information ofall concerned. ‘Continuing increases inthe severity of service condi ios, with concurrent developments of new materials ‘and designs equal to meting these higher require rents had pointed tothe need by 1948 fr more exten- ‘Sve changes in the code than could be provided by Supplements slone. The decision was reached by the “American Standards Asiocaton andthe spon to reorganize the Sectional Committee andit several sab. ‘commits, and to invite the various interested bodies to reaffirm thei representatives or to designate new ‘ones Following is reorganization, Sectional Commit. tc BI made an intensive review ofthe 1942 coe, and a revised code was approved and published in February 1951 withthe designation ASA. B311-1951, which i cluded (a) a general revision and extension of requirements to agre with practice crrent atthe time, (2) revision of reference to existing dimensional ‘standards and material specications, andthe adtion ‘of references to new ones, and (6) claicaton of ambiguous or confitng require- Supplement No. Ito B3.1 was approved and pub- lished i 1953 as ASA B31. 10-1953, This Supplement and other approved revisions were included in anew ‘dition of 831.1 published in 1988 withthe designation ‘ASA B3L1-1955, ‘A review by BL Executive and Sectional Commit ‘ees in 1985 resulted in decton to develop and pob- lshindustr setions a separate code documents ofthe ‘American Standard 131 Cade for Pressure Piping. ‘ASA BSI.AI9S9 was the ist separate code document for Oi Transportation Piping Systems and sopersede’ that part of Section 3 ofthe BSL 1-1985 code covering Oil Transportation Piping Systems. In 196 B31.4 was revised to expand coverage on welding, inspestion, ond testing, and to add new chapters covering sostrction requirements and operation and maintenance prove: Aloresafecting the safety ofthe piping systems.
