American Society of Mechanical Engineers

The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) is an American professional association that, in its own words, "promotes the art, science, and practice of multidisciplinary engineering and allied sciences around the globe" via "continuing education, training and professional development, codes and standards, research, conferences and publications, government relations, and other forms of outreach." ASME is thus an engineering society, a standards organization, a research and development organization, an advocacy organization, a provider of training and education, and a nonprofit organization. Founded as an engineering society focused on mechanical engineering in North America, ASME is today multidisciplinary and global.

ASME has over 85,000 members in more than 135 countries worldwide.

ASME was founded in 1880 by Alexander Lyman Holley, Henry Rossiter Worthington, John Edison Sweet and Matthias N. Forney in response to numerous steam boiler pressure vessel failures. Known for setting codes and standards for mechanical devices, ASME conducts one of the world's largest technical publishing operations, holds numerous technical conferences and hundreds of professional development courses each year and sponsors numerous outreach and educational programs. Georgia Tech president and women engineer supporter Blake R Van Leer was an executive member. Kate Gleason and Lydia Weld were the first two women members.

Examples of use of American Society of Mechanical Engineers

1. Asked about Virginia’s imports from the Kingdom, Myrick said: «Virginia gets its share from the overall $21 billion imports from Saudi Arabia, '8 percent of them oil.» John Munford, president of Riggins Company, said the company, a custom fabricator and manufacturer of pressure vessels and heat exchangers certified by the American Society of Mechanical Engineers, was looking for local agents and distributors.

2. Elevators that stop or get stuck are often a good thing, because it means that numerous safety systems have done their job by halting the machine before an accident, said Jim Coaker, chairman of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers Code Committee.

3. The contest is organised by American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME). The IIT team had designed a semi–automatic bulk material transporter, named ‘Gajraj’. Gajraj––a four wheeler contraption––is capable of carrying any material and climb stairs, said Ravi Mittal, leader of the 3–member team.
