If there are any code rules that differ significantly for other countries/jurisdictions, I would very much like to be informed about this.
The SBA Boiler Inspection Scheme Booklet can be downloaded from the SBA website. You do not need to be a member to access that part. It is under tab Steamboats/boiler inspections/Boiler Inspection Scheme Booklet.

My orginal question was how to quickly judge the condtion of a monotube, but nice to see the debate widened.
