ASME Section VIII Div. 1 Pr. Vessel & Heat Exchanger Design

ASME Section VIII Division 1 is the most widely used part of the Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code (BPVC). It governs the design, fabrication, inspection, and certification of pressure vessels and heat exchangers operating at pressures above 15 psig. Division 1 provides rules for vessels built with relatively straightforward design methods, making it the industry standard for LPG storage tanks, heat exchangers, and process vessels.
