ASME uses quality system auditors experienced in the above-listed fields who have
been certified to the international auditor qualification standard ISO 10011-2.
Registration decision and policy making are conducted within the framework of the
ASME codes, standards, accreditation, and certification committee structure. The
use of volunteers from industry and government provides for a high quality program
that is administered in a fair, impartial, and professional manner.
Over 4,000 companies from 57 countries are currently accredited by ASME in one
or more of the following quality assurance based programs:
᭿
Authorized Inspection Agency (AIA)
᭿
Boiler and Pressure Vessel
᭿
Fastener Manufacturers and Distributors (FAP)
᭿
Nuclear Components
᭿
Nuclear Materials (MM & MS)
᭿
Qualification of Elevator Inspectors (QEI)
᭿
Reinforced Thermoset Plastic Corrosion Resistant Vessel Fabricators (RTP)

᭿
“Special Class” operator certification also available for persons in related fields
(regulatory personnel, trainers, equipment manufacturers, etc.)
Operators of Hazardous Waste Incinerators
᭿
Applies to Control Room Operators, Field Operators (waste receiving and
handling, field equipment operation, and residual handling), and Supervisors
᭿
Candidates are required to complete training in safety, combustion fundamentals,
and basic operation, and pass a written multiple-choice examination for
provisional certification
᭿
Full certification is obtained through a site-specific oral examination in development
Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing Professionals Certification Exam
To certify your competence in using the Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing
Y14.5 Standard, register now for the new certification exam sponsored by ASME.
You can obtain certification on one of the following two levels:
᭿
Technologist GDTP, which provides objective measure of your ability to
understand drawings prepared using the Y14.5 Standard
᭿
Senior GDTP, which provides additional objective measure of your ability to select
geometric controls and apply them properly to drawings
Exams are given in various cities. Please contact ASME for the exam location
nearest you. To obtain an exam application and full details: Phone: Raj Manchanda
at 212-591-8033. Fax: 212-591-8599. E-mail: Or visit the

Graphic images of all equations, figures, and tables assure fidelity of all visual
information.
Sophisticated search capacities, navigational ease, custom annotation, customer support
The A17 CD-ROM gives you the freedom to move through the Code books
unconstrained by pages (for your convenience, page numbers that match those of
the print publications are provided). The clean, clear visual design inherits its colors
from your own Windows choices. The combination of browsing and focused
searching capabilities allows you to thoroughly and quickly investigate the ASME
Elevator and Escalator Code.
Full Test Browser delivers compact, easily accessible electronic information, built
from the same data that created the printed ASME A17 series books. It’s simple to
move through the collection, scanning the table of contents at any level of detail—
from book titles to chapter titles to designated paragraphs. View the full table of
contents or list tables or figures in the Table of Contents view. Jump to selected
items with a click. The full text of the publications can also be read start to finish,
more like a traditional book.

Electronic Stress Tables
Software based on ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code Section II, Part D
ASME has good news for engineers who use the traditional methods of searching
through stress tables. The new Electronic Stress Tables based on the ASME Boiler
and Pressure Vessel Code Section II, Part D (Materials Properties) makes your
search easier and faster. Designed to give you quick and accurate access to any or
all BPVC Section II, Part D stress tables, the program provides a time-saving
alternative to wading through eye-straining pages of spreadsheets. You’ll find the
software not only speeds your search, but also presents the information in a highly
visual format, complete with notes and printing capability.
Search options
Fifteen different fields allow you to narrow your search criteria (filter), or reorder
the data displayed (sort). The software allows you to create multiple line criteria
for logical groupings and to add additional fields to create a compound sort.
Create Excel spreadsheets
Import any or all of the tables into an Excel spreadsheet in a numeric format. You
must have a copy of Excel installed on your PC to run this addition to the
application.
