Description

FOREWORD

The Pipe Fabrication Institute publishes these guidelines for the use and convenience of designers and consulting engineering firms, for pipe fabricators and fabricator erectors generally, and for the customers of each of them, in order to furnish some intelligent and practical observations concerning the ordinary and accepted responsibilities which are incurred by the design consultant and by the pipe fabricator or pipe fabricator erector in connection with large piping jobs.

It has been the aim of those responsible for this publication to furnish guidance to eliminate or reduce misunderstandings which have arisen in the industry due to lack of impartial definition concerning the area of responsibility which the participating groups assume on these jobs.

The guidelines will be of particular interest in situations where no contractual provision is made affecting these imprecise areas.

It is possible that the guidelines might be used by contracting parties choosing to do so simply by making reference to them in the contract.

We recognize that no guides can possibly provide for every contingency, which might arise.

For this reason the work has been directed toward the normal and usual situation, which from time to time confronts the designer and the fabricator or erector.

Obviously, use of the guidelines is left to the discretion and judgment of the contracting parties, but it is our belief that an impartial and objective guidepost will find quick support in the trade, will be welcomed by designers, fabricators, and erectors and appreciated, especially, by their customers.
