We are using both. The reasoning being that after being buried at a depth of 5+ feet, the pipe will cool down prior to cold water flowing through the pipe.
The omitting of thrust collars is decided during construction. From what I understand, the contractor is getting the field engineer to...
Thanks, I did post in that forum. This is work related. We need to justify to the utility that contractors need to install thrust collars as called out in the plans, which has happened on a couple of our designs.
Hello,
I'm determining the change in length of an 8-inch (DIPS) SDR11 HDPE pipe after pressurizing due the Poisson effect. I'm treating the pipe as a thick walled cylinder since the pipes diameter/thickness < 20.
I'm using the attached equations to compute axial, tangential, and radial...
