START program

Programs of the START family are intended for calculation of durability and rigidity of the pipelines of different function having any configuration in space at static and cyclic loading, on seismic influences, and also thickness of walls of pipes and connecting details on pressure:

Couple and hot water; Thermal networks; Technological pipelines oil processing, chemical, petrochemical, gas and other branches; Main gas and oil pipelines; Pipelines of different function from fibreglass; The Appointed resource; Otbrakovochny thickness of pipes and connecting details.

Means of the START program pay off as the self - compensated pipelines in which compensation of temperature expansions is provided with flexibility of the most pipeline route, and pipelines with the special compensating devices executed in the form of wavy, lens or omental compensators.
According to the program pipelines practically of any complexity pay off:

· elevated, underground in the channel and with the sites jammed in soil;

· flat, spatial, branched, with the closed contours;

· with various designs of trailer and intermediate support;

· subject to various external influences (temperature expansion, the concentrated and distributed loadings, shift of support, a preliminary extension, a raspor from internal pressure, etc. ).

· working at low and high temperatures (the effect of creep and a relaxation of tension according to norms is considered);

· with the internal excessive pressure and external pressure (vacuum) - for such sites an inspection of local stability of walls is carried out.
