No <br /> attempt will be made to cover herein more exotic or unusual piping contents. <br /> It is recognized that in the past there has not been a consistent pipe labeling standard at <br /> all Boeing facilities. This standard shall apply to all new work and remodels. It is the goal <br /> of the Mechanical Standards Committee to have all facilities eventually comply with this <br /> standard. <br /> Color coding for piping follows ASME A13.1-1996, Scheme for Identification of Piping <br /> Systems. The ASME standard allows alternate labeling schemes if such schemes are <br /> described in writing and implemented so that the using facility can demonstrate that the <br /> basic concerns in the ASME standard are being met. <br /> Since names of piped fluids are too numerous for specific identification by color alone, <br /> color fields will be used only in classifying pipe contents as safe, hazardous or otherwise, <br /> and specific contents shall be spelled out. Where materials are encountered which are <br /> not covered by this document, the ASME standard shall be followed. <br /> CAUTION This section may not include all appropriate regulations that may apply to the <br /> design and development of company facilities. The facility designer must be <br /> completely familiar with all codes and standards enforced by the local <br /> authority having jurisdiction in order to ensure the proper correlation of phases <br /> of facility design. <br /> NOTE: Master Guide Specifications referred to in this document are available to all <br /> Boeing Facilities Sites from Boeing Facilities Design Standards homepage web <br /> site: http://bpsweb.ds.boeing.com/facilities/home.htm <br /> 501.2 REFERENCES AND STANDARDS <br /> ' A.
