  5. Center for Research and Technology Development - History • ASME involved in Research since 1909 – steam boiler safety valves. • CRTD established in 1985 to coordinate ASME’s Research Program. • CRTD is the central focus for ASME Research. • Governed by Board on Research & Technology Development (BRTD).

  6. Center for Research and Technology Development - Value • ASME’s Research Program - recognized as both a Member Service& aValue of ASME Membership. • Over 400 Participants. • Member Driven Research Projects • 12 Research Committees. • 2 Ad-Hoc Research Committees.

  7. Center for Research and Technology Development - Value • Over 70 Research Project Reports Published Since 1985. • ASME’s Research Program – Its Real Strengths :- • Depth & Breadth of Knowledge of ASME Members participating. • CRTD’s ability to utilize this Talent in Research Project Development & Implementation.

  8. CRTD Objectives • Identify present, new or unfilled research and technological needs; • Develop collaboratively sponsored research projects with governmental and industrial support for relevant research activities; • Effectively communicate results of ASME Research Program.

  9. Strategic Intent of CRTD • Be Member Driven. • Give Members significant benefits for participation. • Reinforce the role of CRTD as the center of ASME Research. • Increase ASME Member participation in Research Committees. • Effectively Communicate CRTD Research Results.

  10. Center for Research and Technology Development –“What we are Uniquely Good At” • Workshops • R&D • New Initiatives • Peer / Program Reviews • Technology Roadmaps • Risk-Informed Research • Industrial & Municipal Waste (IMW) Research

  11. Center for Research and Technology Development – Research Committees • Corrosion & Deposits from Combustion Gases   • Gas Pipeline Safety • Global Technologies • Industrial & Municipal Waste (IMW) • International Inter-Society Research Committee on Nuclear Codes and Standards (IIRC)
