scope:

AISE Subcommittee No. 27 on New Steel Pressure-containing Components for Blast Furnace Installations was formed in 1974 to establish criteria for the design, fabrication and construction of new steel pressure-containing components for blast furnace installations. This report has been prepared by a committee consisting of designers, owners and manufacturers who considered the current technology available. The intention is to present a set of criteria for the design, material selection, fabrication, erection, inspection and testing of new steel pressure-containing components used in blast furnace installations.
