Re: Construction Codes

I have a question for our aerospace professionals:  Is there an equivalent of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers Pressure Vessels for Human Occupancy (ASME PVHO) construction code in Aerospace Engineering? 

I was scanning some of the ASME pressure vessel codes, and it occurs to me that they have a fair amount of design information in them in addition the obligatory legal requirements and recommended minima.  Also, the logic behind those recommended minima reflects a great deal of engineering experience.

What's the aerospace equivalent?  Or do they use the HOPV code?
