REFACE
The ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code is a large compilation of rules and guidance covering
numerous types of construction. Those rules pertain to various issues within each construction type
encompassing design, materials selection and procurement, fabrication, inspection and testing,
overpressure protection, and stamping. There are numerous other subsets of these issues, each
having its own degree of complexity. Then there are simply those precautions noted throughout that
should be considered. To the novice first-time user of the Code, this is an awesome task, trying to
find all the rules and guidelines that apply to a given application. Even to the veteran user of the
Code, it is surprising what one finds in other parts of the Code that can be of general use elsewhere.
I was a "novice" first-time user of the Code in the late 1960s and, like all others, was overwhelmed by
the complexity, strange terminology, and shear dimension of the Code. As a metallurgical engineer,
my primary interest was in materials but in a broad sense ranging from selection and specification to
properties and environmental effects. And like the typical well organized engineer, I started making
my own checklists, indexes, and cross references to ensure that my work would be done in the most
efficient and proficient ways possible.
In 1969, I started what became a long association with the committees that write the Code.
Affiliations have included: Task Groups on Materials Behavior, Physical Properties, Inspection of
Reactor Internal Structures, and Environmental Effects; Subgroups on Strength of Ferrous Alloys
and Materials, Fabrication, and Examination (SC III); Subcommittees on Specifications, Materials,
and Nuclear Power; and the Main Committee of the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code. In the
mid 1970s, my first materials index found its way into Code committee work. Its primary use was in
achieving consistency in the use of nominal composition designations throughout the Code. The
format of that index led to numerous improvements over the years. During this time, peers started to
recognize the usefulness of the index, and it was during this time that they encouraged me to publish
it so others might also benefit from its many useful features.
The first editions of
ASME Section II Practical Guide
concentrated primarily on the features of the
original "Moen Index". Recognizing that materials support people for Code construction would
benefit from additional guidance on materials issues, the 1998 Edition provides additional help in
understanding broader aspects of the Code as well as focusing on the location of materials
requirements and guidance within the various Code sections. It is my desire to make this the
ultimate "primer" for anyone dealing with Code materials issues, benefiting everyone from the
"novice" to the "veteran."
