About this field
Pipes, fittings, valves, pumps, pressure vessels, hydraulic and pneumatic systems and flow measurement. Besides ISO, ASME codes (process piping, pressure vessels) and API standards are widely used.
Plant, oil-and-gas and HVAC projects abroad usually specify particular ASME/ISO codes; Vietnamese contractors and manufacturers need them to quote, fabricate and compile compliant quality dossiers.
