The Revised Philippine Mechanical Engineering Code

THE REVISED PHILIPPINE MECHANICAL ENGINEERING CODE: FOCUS ON IMPROVING THE QUALITY OF THE ENVIRONMENT, LIFE, SAFETY AND HEALTH

The Philippine Society of Mechanical Engineers is the Philippines’ only integrated technical society in the field of mechanical engineering. Its members, scattered throughout the world are individuals who share ideas, support research, identify needs, and write the Philippine industry’s standards for testing and practice. The result is that engineers are better able to keep indoor environments safe and productive while protecting and preserving the outdoors and the environment for generations to come.

There are noticeable differences between this Revised Code and the previous versions: The earlier version/s were written more as a reference manual instead of a code, they describe theories and practices in operation rather than follow the mandate in accordance with the National Building Code of the Philippines and, they have not been updated to conform with current practices in accordance with international standards and norms. This new code follows stipulated international practices and the uniform mechanical code, and focuses on the paramount concern in the world today, the environment, life, safety and health. The PSME is tasked to safeguard the people by all means in compliance with the National Building Code of the Philippines, specifically Section 102 Declaration of Policy and Chapter 13, Section 1302 Mechanical Regulation. One of the ways that PSME supports its members and the industry’s need for information is through PSME Research enabling members to benefit from the combined effort of committee members who have the experience in determining the important information that is incorporated in this Code.

The 2011 Philippine Mechanical Engineering Code
The 2011 Philippine Mechanical Engineering Code covers basic principles and data used in the mechanical engineering field. The PSME Technical Committee that prepared these chapters, strive not only to provide new information, but also to clarify past and existing information, delete obsolete materials, and reorganize the chapters and their contents to make the Code more understandable and easier to use.
