EN 13445 & ASME VIII — unfired pressure vessels
What is it?
The European (EN 13445) and American (ASME VIII) rules for building pressure vessels — tanks, reactors, heat exchangers. Under PED 2014/68/EU, welds here demand qualified procedures, certified welders and full NDT with notified-body oversight.
What evidence should a candidate have?
Project references naming vessel fabrication, weld maps and NDT sign-offs; welder papers must match the material and process of the vessel shop.
Why it matters for staffing
Pressure-vessel shops are the most demanding welding employers — experience there is the strongest possible quality signal on any welding CV.
