Design of a piping system is essentially no different than the design undertaken with any ductile and flexible piping material. The design equations and relationships are well-established in the literature, and they can be employed in concert with the distinct performance properties of this material to create a piping system which will provide very many years of durable and reliable service for the intended application. Covers Design based on Working Pressure Requirements. Procedures are included for dealing with the effects of temperature,surge pressures, and the nature of the fluid being conveyed, on the sustained pressure capacity of the pipe. Deals with the hydraulic design of piping. It covers flow considerations for both pressure and non-pressure pipe. Focuses on burial design and flexible pipeline design theory.
