Abstract
Japan Pressure Vessel Council, JPVRC was asked to review the draft of ASME Code Sec. III Div. 3, Alternative Rules for Construction of High Pressure Vessels, from ASME Code Main Committee. The working group of JPVRC submitted to the Committee comments for the requirements of Div. 3 ASME on December 1996. The first edition of Div. 3 in which the comments were refered was published on May 1997.
The remarkable requirements of Div. 3 compared with those of Div. 2 were summarized in the first paper on General Requirements and Material Requirements, and in the second paper on Design Requirements.
This paper summarizes the requirements on Fabrication Requirements and Pressure Relieving Devices.
