Abstract
Pressure pipelines belong to the group of technological carrying structures that are designed in accordance with Standard Eurocode 3: STN EN 1993: Design of steel structures. These standards are used also later in the stage for assessment of failure states and fatigue life. Standard Eurocode 3: STN EN 1993-4-3 establishes the requirements for material properties of pipes and welds, associated with mechanical properties. A serious problem in estimating fatigue life of structure is the consideration of gradual degradation. The article also discusses the analysis of fatigue failure of the pressure pipeline, where it was found that the initiation of fatigue failure occurred in the area of poor weld. The further spread of the crack then occurred in the base material of the pipeline.
