ASME's B31.8 Gas Transmission and Distribution covers the design, fabrication, installation, inspection, testing, and other safety aspects of operation and maintenance of gas transmission and distribution systems, including gas pipelines, gas compressor stations, gas metering and regulation stations, gas mains, and service lines up to the outlet of the customer’s meter set assembly. The scope of this Code includes gas transmission and gathering pipelines, including appurtenances, that are installed offshore for the purpose of transporting gas from production facilities to onshore locations; gas storage equipment of the closed pipe type that is fabricated or forged from pipe or fabricated from pipe and fittings, and gas storage lines.

The North Carolina NASCLA Contractors Guide to Business, Law, and Project Management, General 10th Edition, serves as a comprehensive resource for contractors.

Organized into three sections, the guide offers vital insights into various aspects of the construction industry.

In Part 1, emphasis is placed on business planning and initiation. It aids in crafting business strategies, selecting appropriate structures, navigating licensing and insurance prerequisites, and acquiring essential management and marketing competencies.

Part 2 delves into the foundational elements necessary for operating a thriving construction enterprise. Topics covered include estimation techniques, contract administration, scheduling methodologies, project supervision, safety protocols, environmental obligations, and fostering positive relationships with staff, subcontractors, and clientele.

Part 3 furnishes indispensable guidance for managing the administrative facets of a business. It encompasses financial administration, taxation essentials, and lien regulations. Effective oversight of these business domains is imperative, as neglecting them can lead to significant complications.

For safety around flammable and combustible liquids, using the latest NFPA 30 is the first priority. Enforceable under OSHA and many state and local regulations, NFPA 30: Flammable and Combustible Liquids Code is the best practice widely used in industry and by insurers. The 2015 edition of the Code includes the latest and most complete criteria you need to protect your facility by ensuring safe storage, handling, and use of flammable and combustible liquids.

This code helps mitigate fire and explosion dangers by providing safeguards for dispensing liquid and gaseous motor fuels into the fuel tanks of automotive vehicles and marine craft. (Note that NFPA 30A addresses gaseous motor fuels only where dispensed at the same facility as liquid motor fuels.)
