FSU pipeline design code compared to U.S. codes

A major pipeline design code of the former Soviet Union (FSU) has been translated into English and, where possible, compared to relevant parts of pertinent U.S. codes. "Design of Transmission Pipelines" (SNIP 2.05.06-85) governs stress criteria and calculations of pipeline-stress variables...

More Information
Summary:A major pipeline design code of the former Soviet Union (FSU) has been translated into English and, where possible, compared to relevant parts of pertinent U.S. codes. "Design of Transmission Pipelines" (SNIP 2.05.06-85) governs stress criteria and calculations of pipeline-stress variables. The comparable U.S. codes are "Liquid Transportation Systems for Hydrocarbon, Liquid Petroleum Gas, Anhydrous Ammonia, and Alcohols" (ASME B31.4) and "Gas Transmission and Distribution Piping Systems" (ASME B31.8).
