For Outstanding Leadership and tireless dedication to ASME since 1996. Your impact has been felt deeply and profoundly. Your dedication to B30.9 as Chair and P30 as Founding Chair has left an indelible mark on ASME, the industry and the world.
Note: The AMSE B30.9 standard covers provisions that apply to the fabrication, attachment, use, inspection, testing, and maintenance of slings used for load handling purposes. The ASME P30 standard establishes planning considerations and practices that apply to Load Handling Activities.
ASME's standards are developed by technical committees, several of which are currently occupied by our very own ITI instructors.
