Biaxial Tests of 14 Inch Pipe

Six full scale tensile tests were carried out on 14 inch pressurized girth-welded pipe specimens. The purpose of the tests was to reproduce gound-movement-induced failures that occurred in the field and to determine the axial tensile strain capacity of the welded pipe.
