LONGITUDINAL ANALYSIS
The two basic longitudinal analyses are axial and
flexural. Axial analysis considers the longitudinal
effects of temperature changes, catenary tension,
thrust at valves and elbows, and the Poisson effect
of radial pressure. Flexural analysis considers the
longitudinal effect of beam bending.
Longitudinal beam analysis of buried pipes follows
classical procedures.
Depending on the loads
(weight of the pipe and its contents plus soil loads)
and the reactions (high points or hard spots in the
bedding), bending moment diagrams can be drawn,
and deformations, strains, and stresses can be
evaluated. Longitudinal analysis is discussed in
Chapter 14. For most buried pipes, either the
manufacturer provides adequate longitudinal
strength, or the pipe is so flexible longitudinally that
it relieves itself of stress. Corrugated pipes, for
example, relieve themselves of longitudinal stresses
by changing length and by beam bending that
conforms with uneven beddings. Lengths of pipe
sections are limited by manufacturers in order to
prevent longitudinal failure.
RING ANALYSIS
Ring analysis considers stress, strain, deformation,
and stability of the cross section (ring) cut by a plane
perpendicular to the axis of the pipe. See Figure 51.
Stress
Stress theory provides an acceptable analysis for
rigid rings. Deformation and strain theories provide
better analyses for flexible rings.
Circumferential stresses comprise: 1. hoop or ring
compression stress, and 2. moment stress or its
equivalent ring deformation stress. Circumferential
stress analysis is analogous to the stress analysis

Example
Figure 5-8 is a typical 6x2 or 3x1 corrugation.
Values of section modulus are listed in industry
manuals but are all based on elastic theory.
What is the relationship of plastic theory to elastic
theory for this corrugation?
