Abstract
Industrial pipelines, in particular the ground-based and overhead ones within any chemical works, demand special attention owing to hazards to the employees, population in the surrounding area, and environment. Hazards are greatest while transferring dangerous media between manufacturing departments and during the storage thereof. Hence, there is a permanent need to deal with the problems of pipeline strength [1–2].
