ASME BPVC Section VIII, Div I, 2004 Edition w/ A06 Addenda 1

[keens]

Gentlemen,

Does anyone know if a 2006 Addenda has been issued for ASME BPVC Section VIII, Divsion I, 2004 Edition? And if so, where can I find a copy? Thanks... Also, if I have a shop that is getting a vessel U-Stamped to the 2006 Addenda, but the COMPRESS calcs do not have the 2006 Addenda yet, what are the rules for allowing this?

The 2006 Addenda was issued on July 1 2006. It is permissive for use untill 1/1/07 when it becomes mandatory. You can use Compress untill the next update from Codeware. The Code effective date for a pressure vessel is the P O date. See the forward of the Code.
