- Title
PART 8: USE OF SMALL-SCALE PIPELINE SPECIMENS TO TEST A STEEL-ADHESIVE REPAIR SYSTEM.
- Authors
Perez Rosas, M.A.; Vieira, R.D.; Freire, J.L.F.
- Abstract
The article presents the examination of laboratory hydrostatic experiment results conducted on compact size pipeline samples that had exterior metal loss milled defects fixed by superposed precurved thin layers of steel lamina. The author discusses that the thin layers of the repair system are applied to the exterior surface of the pipe and cemented in position with epoxy resin. He also infers that the use of this form of scheme prevents the need for field welding of the steel sleeves and merges the benefits of the high elasticity modulus and high yield and vital strengths of a steel repair with the eminent ease of applying performed multiple repairs.
