Does anyone know what a satisfactory buckling check is for ASME B31.4? ASME B31.8 has a clear formula in Section 833.10. Thanks!

You could use the same for B31.4. When gas pipeline has a DF = 0.72, as is always the case for b31.4, there not any real difference in any stress criteria. Compensate for weight of product when applicable.
