An ASME® Joint Review is a rigorous process conducted by the National Board of Boiler and Pressure Vessel Inspectors (NBBPVI) to assess the quality and safety of pressure vessels and boilers.
Radiographic Testing (RT) is a powerful NDE technique widely used in the manufacturing of pressure vessels and boilers. It involves the use of ionizing radiation to penetrate the material and create an image of internal features.
Non-Destructive Examination (NDE) is a crucial aspect of the manufacturing process for pressure vessels and boilers. It involves a variety of techniques to detect flaws and defects without damaging the material. For U-Stamp certified products, NDE is essential to ensure the integrity and safety of the equipment.
Certification is a pinnacle achievement for fabrication shops, signifying a commitment to excellence and adherence to rigorous quality standards. This distinction sets certified shops apart from those lacking formal documentation, solidifying their reputation for producing world-class products.
Applicants for new issuance or renewal of an ASME® Certificate(s) of Authorization should be aware that the Joint Review will require implementation and demonstration of their Quality Control Program. The purpose of the demonstration is to have the Applicant provide evidence of their knowledge of and compliance with requirements of each Certificate and scope they are requesting.
Go into your Joint Review with confidence. Use our Pre-Joint Review checklist to help determine if you have what you need or just get you on the track.
We perform detailed pressure vessel calculations in accordance with ASME® Section VIII, Division 1 and Division 2, ensuring optimal design for your specific application. This includes calculations for thickness, pressure, temperature, and external loads.
ASME® Section VIII, Division 1 provides the foundational framework for designing, constructing, and inspecting pressure vessels.
ASME® Section VIII, Division 2 provides an alternative design approach to pressure vessel construction by allowing higher design stress levels in exchange for more rigorous design analysis, material testing, and quality control.
