ADOPTED_FROM:CEN/TR 1295-3:2007
This document specifies calculation methods for the structural design of water supply pipelines, drains and sewers, and other water industry pipelines, whether operating at atmospheric, greater or lesser pressure.
It applies for the structural design of buried piping systems, made from all materials used for the conveyance of fluids under pressure or gravity conditions.
Pipes to be designed for installations in abnormal or unusual conditions, e.g. in quick soils or a marine sea bed, are not covered by this document, it may require special engineering.
The design of very large diameter pipe installations may require considerations to be given to other additional parameters, e.g. the homogeneity of the surrounding soil.
The design method is intended to be used for pipes operating at different temperatures provided that the corresponding temperature re-rating factors for the relevant pipe properties are used as specified in the referring standard(s). Nevertheless, high services temperatures may require an additional analysis of the longitudinal stresses and strains and/or a special design of the joints.
