Where did the term spring line for pipe come from?

The term "spring line" for pipe refers to the horizontal line that marks the point where a pipe is neither fully submerged nor fully above water in a fluid system, typically in a trench or a cut. It is derived from the concept of "spring," indicating the natural level of groundwater or liquid that exerts pressure on the pipe. The spring line is crucial for assessing buoyancy and structural integrity, as it represents the transition zone where hydrostatic pressure impacts the pipe. Understanding this line helps engineers design and install piping systems effectively.


What is the difference between seamless and welded pipe fittings?

Seamless (SMLS) pipe is formed by drawing a solid billet over a piercing rod to create the hollow shell. Seamless pipe withstands pressure better than other types, and is often more easily available than welded pipe.Welded pipe is formed by rolling plate and welding the seam. The weld flash can be removed from the outside or inside surfaces using a scarfing blade. The weld zone can also be heat treated to make the seam less visible.


What is bi pipe?

Bi pipe is a black iron pipe.


What is difference between nominal diameter of a pipe and bore of pipe and also defined the nominal diameter of pipe and tube how you differentiate both?

bore of the pipe is the internal diameter of pipe but the nominal diameter of pipe is the dia of a circle which is draw through a point which is situates at exactly half of the thickness of pipe or we can say that (outer dia of pipe- thickness of pipe )=nominal bore of pipe.


What is pipe bore?

Pipe bore is the actual minimum inside diameter of a pipe, which is not necessarily the nominal pipe size.
