im a freshman in high school and i am doing a project for my introduction to engineering design and i need to know the basics of how the asme came to be.

Would there be any interest in the ASME Performance Test Codes?
The result of the debate was NO CONSENSUS to move page, per discussion below. - GTBacchus( talk) 02:57, 24 January 2007 (UTC)
American Society of Mechanical Engineers→ ASME – ASME never refers to itself as "American Society of Mechanical Engineers", and on its own "about ASME" it says "Founded in 1880 as the American Society of Mechanical Engineers, today's ASME is" [2]. I feel like this article should be called "ASME" rather than the seemingly defunct "American Society of Mechanical Engineers". The new article name of ASME would thus conform better to WP:NCA (like NASA, laser, radar, etc.). -- Matthew 22:04, 18 January 2007 (UTC)

(Member, out of habit, since 1983) In terms of strengths and weaknesses, ASME has historically done a fairly good job at maintaining standards publications, however when it comes to members, the society has consistently failed to lobby for American mechanical engineers (in terms of limiting foreign immigration and stopping American manufacturing losses markets overseas with horrendous labor and environmental violations), and they provide little of value for the working engineering member on their site. What is most telling, it the fact that there is no open forum on their site for members views. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 164.107.37.109 ( talk • contribs) 12:37, 21 June 2007 (UTC)
Doing research into writings produced over several decades, it appears that ASME has published almost as many journals as IEEE. While the standards listed do contribute to the public good, inclusion in the ASME article of a description of its journal output would also so contribute. Rgdboer ( talk) 21:57, 27 March 2008 (UTC)
Can someone please provide a link to the ASME website, and a listing of all the ASME standards that are available. ProfKevinT ( talk) 21:39, 26 July 2011 (UTC)
A while ago this page was moved from "American Society of Mechanical Engineers" to "ASME" with the explanation that "ASME itself no longer defines its own name as an acronym, but rather as the full name. See ASME.org." However, in most of their press releases, they do seem to treat "ASME" as an acronym, and they spell out the full 5-word phrase the first time it is mentioned. I'm wondering if this page should be moved back. -- Brian the Editor ( talk) 19:31, 20 June 2013 (UTC)
