I'm assuming you mean house pipe joints. Start at the pipe union, using a bigger pipe wrench if necessary. If the joint breaks you will have to replace the pipe. Unfortunately there aren't any real good tricks, it just takes a lot of force. you can try draining the pipe and adding heat, but don't get it hot enough to melt the galvanized coating otherwise you'll NEVER get the pipe off. If it's a gas pipe don't try putting heat on the line. That wouldn't be good.

How are the structure and function of pipe joints similar to and different from the skeletal system's joints?
Pipe joints and skeletal system joints both serve as connection points that allow for movement and flexibility. However, pipe joints are typically rigid and designed to create a tight seal for the flow of liquids or gases, while skeletal joints are more complex and can allow for a range of motion, such as bending and rotation. Additionally, skeletal joints are supported by surrounding muscles and ligaments, whereas pipe joints rely on mechanical fittings and seals for stability. Overall, while both types of joints facilitate connection and movement, their structures and functions cater to different needs.
