Steps

  1. Check ASME's own codes-standards page for A17.1 to confirm the current edition designation before purchasing anywhere else
  2. Purchase the current edition (ASME A17.1-2025/CSA B44:25 as of this session) as a DRM-protected PDF from the ANSI Webstore
  3. Note that ASME's A17 Committee and the CSA B44 Technical Committee jointly develop and harmonize the code, so US (ASME) and Canadian (CSA) requirements are published as a single document
  4. For jurisdiction-specific compliance questions, confirm which edition your specific state/provincial authority has actually adopted, since adoption often lags the latest published edition
