Comparison of Global Quality Assurance Overview of Codes & Standards
and Management System Standards for Nuclear Power Plants
Used for Nuclear Application

PD634 ASME STANDARDS COURSE PD633 ASME STANDARDS COURSE
Upon completion of this two-day intermediate-level course, This course introduces mechanical and civil engineers to ASME,
delegates will have a better understanding of the major international its codes and standards, and the ASME Boiler and Pressure
Nuclear Quality Assurance Standards and how they relate and Vessels (B&PV) Code as it applies to nuclear facilities. It provides
interact. an overview of Sections III and XI of the B&PV Code, and also the
Guides for the Operation and Maintenance for Nuclear Power Plants.
Following an introduction to the ASME Section III Nuclear Power This course also reviews Sections II, V and IX as they apply to
Code, the course offers an overview of the ASME NQA-1 Nuclear nuclear facilities.
Quality Assurance Standard, the ISO 9001 Quality Management
Standard, the NSQ-100 Nuclear Safety and Quality Management This course also discusses the NQA-1 Quality Assurance for Nuclear
System Requirements, as well as the IAEA GS-R-3 Management Facility Applications Standard. Other topics include a brief history
Systems Standard. It also compares the NQA-1 Standard with of the B&PV Code, the ASME Boards and Committees (including the
the ISO 9001:2008, NSQ 100, and the IAEA GS-R-3 Management Board on Nuclear Codes and Standards), international activity in the
Systems Safety Series Standard. The course also provides analysis area of nuclear codes and ASME Nuclear Accreditation.
