INTRODUCTION
Pipes are the most delicate components in any
process plant. They are also the most busy
entities. They are subjected to almost all kinds
of loads, intentional or unintentional. It is very
important to take note of all potential loads
that a piping system would encounter during
operation as well as during other stages in the
life cycle of a process plant. Ignoring any such

“The idea of this paper is to discuss all possible

PIPE UNDER STRESS
PROF. A. S. MOHARIR
1, Identify potential loads that would come
‘on to the pipe or piping system during its
entire life
2. Relate each one of these loads to the
stresses and strains that would be
developed in the crystalsgrains of the
Material of Construction (MoC) of the
3. Decide the worst three-dimensional stress
state that the MoC can withstand without
failure
4, Get the cumulative effect of all the
potential loads on the 3-D stress scenario
in the piping system under consideration.
5. Alter piping system design to ensure thet
the stress patter is within failure limits.
‘The goal of quantification and analysis of pipe
stresses is to provide safe design through the
above steps. Of course, there could be several
designs, which could be safe. A piping
‘would still have a lof of scope to
choose from such alternatives the one which is
most economical, or most suitable etc. Good
