    above ground pipeline deflection issue

    its axial limit stops have detail configurations as two supports with concrete in the middle with a gap 50mm also it is supported with v shape structure with the ground and this is my least concern as the civil team will confirm design of such support that will not fail under the supported load...

    above ground pipeline deflection issue

    thanks to all, but as (LittleInch) states there is no maximum value has been stated but I don't think the issue as problem of support you can adjust the arrangement as you like and I also checked the deflection at the end of the line it is not that much and this is because I already shift the...

    above ground pipeline deflection issue

    stretching the spans to 15m to decrease the number of supports used and as far as I know the span is only to be verified with vertical deflection and the total stress induced due to the bending caused by spanning and in my case both are more than safe however still I have doubt for the huge...

    above ground pipeline deflection issue

    As far as i know CAESAR takes the cycles especially for expansion case number of cycles equivalent to 2 cycles a day for 20 years and this is more than enough for my case and I checked the loads on guides it is not significant value at the end what is your recommendation as from my POV I refused...

    above ground pipeline deflection issue

    no the 1m not for 1700m pipeline it is in a short span again because I use guide to restrict the lateral movement see the attached photo this is from the analysis and the amplification factor for displacement is 1 so as shown the 1m deflection in the bend body itself and at the two rest supports...

    above ground pipeline deflection issue

    the span of supports is not long as we started with 10m intervals and resulted 1mm vertical deflection so we decided to increase it to 15m it resulting of 4mm vertical deflection, secondly it will not buckle or snack around before we reach the bend because guide supports are distributed evenly...

    above ground pipeline deflection issue

    greetings all, i have a pipeline 1700m size 10in and wall thickness 12.7mm its condition is laid aboveground on concrete sleepers with intervals every 15m the pressure is 82bar and temp 85c the main issue here is due to the client requirement and site issues using any loops with hot bends or...
