Abstract

It was examined the developing of Specifications for high durability and large diameter electric welded straight -seam pipes used in unique constructions including that they worked in heavy climate conditions. It was demonstrated that the pipes, made with high cleaned from harmful admixture thick sheets treated by thermo mechanical rolling and accelerated cooling, possess very high cold-resistant, crack-resistant, fire-resistant and high resistant against propagation of fatigued cracks. It was installed that such pipes possess high resistant against mechanical aging and they have high level of parameters defined the resistant against the seismic loadings. In accordance with the results of researches there were developed Specifications with the suitable guarantee provided operational reliability of unique constructions made with electric straight- seam pipes.
