No reproduction may be made of this material without written consent of ASME. c Date of Issuance: July 1, 2010 (Includes all Code Case actions published through Supplement 11 to the 2007 Edition) ASME does not “approve,” “rate,” or “endorse” any item, construction, proprietary device, or activity. ASME does not take any position with respect to the validity of any patent rights asserted in connection with any items mentioned in this document, and does not undertake to insure anyone utilizing a standard against liability for infringement of any applicable letters patent, nor assume any such liability. Users of a code or standard are expressly advised that determination of the validity of any such patent rights, and the risk of infringement of such rights, is entirely their own responsibility. The Committee’s function is to establish rules of safety, relating only to pressure integrity, governing the construction of boilers, pressure vessels, transport tanks and nuclear components, and inservice inspection for pressure integrity of nuclear components and transport tanks, and to interpret these rules when questions arise regarding their intent. This code does not address other safety issues relating to the construction of boilers, pressure vessels, transport tanks and nuclear components, and the inservice inspection of nuclear components and transport tanks. The user of the Code should refer to other pertinent codes, standards, laws, regulations, or other relevant documents.

The 2010 Code is available only in the loose-leaf format; accordingly, the Addenda will be issued in the loose-leaf, replacement-page format. INTERPRETATIONS ASME issues written replies to inquiries concerning interpretation of technical aspects of the Code. The Inter- pretations for each individual Section will be published separately and will be included as part of the update service to that Section. Interpretations of Section III, Divisions 1 iv and 2, will be included with the update service to Subsec- tion NCA. Interpretations of the Code are posted in January and July at www.cstools.asme.org/interpretations. CODE CASES The Boiler and Pressure Vessel Committee meets regu- larly to consider proposed additions and revisions to the Code and to formulate Cases to clarify the intent of existing requirements or provide, when the need is urgent, rules for materials or constructions not covered by existing Code rules. Those Cases that have been adopted will appear in the appropriate 2010 Code Cases book: “Boilers and Pressure Vessels” and “Nuclear Components.” Supple- ments will be sent automatically to the purchasers of the Code Cases books up to the publication of the 2013 Code.

No reproduction may be made of this material without written consent of ASME. c NOTES TO NUMERIC INDEX T The ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Standards Committee took action to eliminate Code Case expiration dates, effective March 11, 2005. This means that all Code Cases listed in Supplement 3 and beyond will remain available for use until annulled by the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Standards Committee. Code Cases will be routinely reviewed for possible incorporation into the body of the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code. T There is a change in the way the supplements to the 2004 Edition are distributed. Supplement 11 is the last supplement published in the 2004 Edition, Supplement 12 was incorporated into the 2007 Edition. T Cases may be used beginning with the date of approval shown on the Case. T Annulled Cases will remain in the Numeric Index until the next Edition, at which time they will be deleted. T Newly revised cases supersede previous versions, as indicated by an “S” in the Numeric Index. T The digit following a Case Number is used to indicate the number of times a Case has been revised. T The Cases are arranged in numerical order, and each page of a Case is identified at the top with the appropriate Case Number.
