BAT-216-R01 Investigation of the Behavior of Corroded Line

Abstract

This report is the third in a series of reports dealing with the behavior of corroded line pipe. In this phase the data from the first two phases and the results of other studies of defects are reanalyzed for the purpose of optimizing the predictive capability. In addition, this report includes guidelines to suggest how one might go about setting criteria to accept or reject pipe for gas service on the basis of the predicted remaining strength.
