You dont say if the pipeline is fully welded or has rubber ring joints. If it is fully welded then there is no need generally for thrust blocks. One exception may be poor soil conditions and pressure transient combinations. --- apghasemi <apghasemi@yahoo.com> wrote:

I' m checking the stress analysis of a 40" steel buried pipline.(5L X65)

Does Autopipe considers the thrust restraints due to internal pressure at changes of direction?

  Should I provide thrust blocks at all tees ??
