CODE CASES
The Boiler and Pressure Vessel Committee meets regularly 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 2015 Code Cases book
