The latest edition
of WinDOT, The Pipeline Safety Encyclopedia was
released in March 2000. Once again we have expanded the list of
available standards and provided the most current versions of pipeline
safety regulations and references.
What's
new in this release!
The GPTC Guide now includes
Addendum No. 1 to the 1998-2000 Edition, which was approved by ANSI
in July 1999. This is the most current version of the Guide available
as of March 2000.
The 1999 National Fuel Gas Code
is included with a subscription to WinDOT. The new edition contains
over 100 technical, format and editorial revisions reflecting current
equipment, materials and installation practices.
"The code is a must have for anyone
involved in the installation of fuel gas piping, appliances and
equipment," said Paul Cabot, AGA standard program administrator
and the secretary of the American National Standards Institute committee
that updates the code. Cabot said the code is currently updated
every three years.
The National Fuel Gas Code is the governing
code used by local gas utilities and officials of federal, state,
and local governments to judge the acceptability of fuel-gas installations.
The code is also referenced by appliance manufacturers as part of
their installation instructions.
Changes contained in the latest edition
of the NFGC include combustion air (unusually tight construction;
combination indoor/outdoor option; and duct construction and installation);
venting (Type B vents in masonry chimneys; and sizing criteria for
appliances equipped with dampers); and pipe installation (revised
leak detection).
