ABSTRACT
INTRODUCTION
High strength pipelines offer many advantages over lower
grade pipelines for long distance natural gas and liquid energy
products transportation. Some of these benefits are reduced
material and transportation costs and faster construction speed
from the reduced welding time. Another trend in new gas
pipeline projects is a move towards higher design factors. The
ability to operate at higher design factors enhances the
economic return of the pipelines and provides additional
incentive to select high strength linepipes.

Variation of Properties
Rectangular all-weld strip specimens were extracted from
six rolled girth welds made from pipes of the same heat. The
stress-strain curves are shown in Figure 10. There is generally
very good consistency among the welds.

Definition of Round-House
Some of the recent efforts to produce pipes with superior
strain capacity have focused on having round-house stress
strain curves, see Figure 15. The presence of yield point
elongation, or Luders extension, tends to initiate buckling,
and therefore reduces compressive strain capacity of the pipe.
Therefore having round-house stress strain curves is critical to
achieving high compressive strain capacity.
