ASME B31.3

ASME B31.3 is a standard developed by the American Society of Mechanical Engineers that provides guidelines for the design, construction, and maintenance of piping systems in industrial facilities. It focuses on ensuring safety, reliability, and efficiency in the handling of liquids and gases. The standard covers materials, design specifications, fabrication methods, inspection, testing, and quality control. By adhering to ASME B31.3, engineers and manufacturers aim to prevent failures and accidents, ultimately protecting people, equipment, and the environment in processes such as chemical, petrochemical, and oil and gas industries.
