11、the authorization of the American EngineeringStandards Committee(subsequently named American Standards Association,then the UnitedStates of America Standards Institute and now,American National Standards Institute).Sponsorsfor the group were the American Society of Mechanical Engineers,Manufacturers

12、 StandardizationSociety of the Valve and Fitting Industry,and the Heating and Piping Contractors NationalAssociation(later the Mechanical Contractors Association of America).The American Gas Association determined that standardization of gas valves used in distribu-tion systems was desirable and nee

13、ded.The A.G.A.Task Committee on Standards for Valvesand Shut-Offs was formed and development work commenced in 1958.In 1968,it was determinedthat a more acceptable document would result if approval were gained for the American NationalStandards Institute and to facilitate such action,the A.G.A.Commi

14、ttee became B16 SubcommitteeNo.13,later renamed Subcommittee L,which is its current designation.In 1982,the B16 Commit-tee,was reorganized as an ASME committee operating under procedures accredited by ANSI.The first standard developed by the Subcommittee was ANSI B16.33.As a follow-up,the B16.38 sta

15、ndard was subsequently developed to cover larger sizes of gasvalves and shut-offs.Starting in about 1965,there was a major increase in the use of plastic pipingin gas distribution systems,which made it desirable to have valves and shut-offs of a compatiblematerial.To fill this need,the B16.40 standa

16、rd was developed.In 1985,the lack of standards for gas valves for use in gas piping systems,downstream fromthe point of delivery(meter outlet),and upstream of the inlet to gas utilization equipment,wasbrought to the attention of the subcommittee.To fill this need,this Standard was developed.This Sta

17、ndard has been developed so that user and manufacturers have a common basis valvespecification,one that can be readily used to qualify valve designs.Usage by certifying bodieswould make it possible for building codes to reference the standard.In 2002,the title was changed to clearly match the update
