How do you determine which pipes need stress calculation? Which pipes can be considered stress-free based on experience?
The classification in the \"Code for Flexible Design of Petrochemical Pipelines—SH/T3041-2016\" can be used as a reference, although it is relatively rough; generally, the process is classified based on the pipeline list specific to each project.
Typically, companies have their own specialized procedure documents for stress management, which are usually more detailed than those specified in the standards. As long as one follows those standard procedures, there should be no problems; if the requirements aren’t very strict, following the standards is generally sufficient as well.
Refer to the pipeline design specifications and codes for the relevant industry
