Abstract
Abstract An experimental investigation is described of the ultimate strength of pipe specimens representing the support region of continuous pipes on saddle supports. Variables that are considered include diameter-to-thickness ratios in the range from 28 to 100, span-to-diameter ratios from 16 to 98, and two different saddle arrangements. Ultimate-moment capacities are compared with code recommendations, and the influence of the saddle support is described.
