Hawaii Administrative Rules › Title 6 - DEPARTMENT OF BUDGET AND FINANCE › Division - PUBLIC UTILITIES COMMISSION › Chapter 77 - TRANSPORTATION OF NATURAL AND OTHER GAS BY PIPELINE; MINIMUM SAFETY STANDARDS › Subchapter 5 - MINIMUM SAFETY STANDARDS - PIPE DESIGN › Section 6-77-28 - General

Pipe must be designed with sufficient wall thickness, or
					 must be installed with adequate protection, to withstand anticipated external
					 pressures and loads that will be imposed on the pipe after
					 installation.
Hawaii Administrative Rules › Title 6 - DEPARTMENT OF BUDGET AND FINANCE › Division - PUBLIC UTILITIES COMMISSION › Chapter 77 - TRANSPORTATION OF NATURAL AND OTHER GAS BY PIPELINE; MINIMUM SAFETY STANDARDS › Subchapter 5 - MINIMUM SAFETY STANDARDS - PIPE DESIGN › Section 6-77-29 - Design formula for steel pipe

Current through June, 2024
(a) The design
				  pressure for steel pipe is determined in accordance with the following formula:
P=(2 St/D) x F x E x T
P = Design pressure in pounds per square inch gauge.
S = Yield strength in pounds per square inch determined in
					 accordance with section 6-77-30.
D = Nominal outside diameter of the pipe in inches.
t = Nominal wall thickness of the pipe in inches. If this
					 is unknown, it is determined in accordance with section 6-77-31. Additional
					 wall thickness required for concurrent external loads in accordance with
					 section 6-77-28 may not be included in computing design pressure.
F = Design factor determined in accordance with section
					 6-77-32.
E = Longitudinal joint factor determined in accordance with
					 section 6-77-33.
T = Temperature derating factor determined in accordance
					 with section 6-77-34.
(b)
				  If steel pipe that has been subjected to cold expansion to meet the SMYS is
				  subsequently heated, other than by welding or stress relieving as a part of
				  welding, the design pressure is limited to seventy-five percent of the pressure
				  determined under subsection (a) if the temperature of the pipe exceeds 900E F
				  (482E C) at any time or is held above 600E F (316E C) for more than one
				  hour.
Hawaii Administrative Rules › Title 6 - DEPARTMENT OF BUDGET AND FINANCE › Division - PUBLIC UTILITIES COMMISSION › Chapter 77 - TRANSPORTATION OF NATURAL AND OTHER GAS BY PIPELINE; MINIMUM SAFETY STANDARDS › Subchapter 5 - MINIMUM SAFETY STANDARDS - PIPE DESIGN › Section 6-77-30 - Yield strength (S) for steel pipe

Current through June, 2024
(a) For pipe that
				  is manufactured in accordance with a specification listed in section I of
				  Appendix B, the yield strength to be used in the design formula in section
				  6-77-29 is the SMYS stated in the listed specification, if that value is
				  known.
(b) For pipe that is
				  manufactured in accordance with a specification not listed in section I of
				  Appendix B or whose specification or tensile properties are unknown, the yield
				  strength to be used in the design formula in section 6-77-29 is one of the
				  following:
(1) If the pipe is tensile tested
				  in accordance with section II.D. of Appendix B, the lower of the following:
(A) Eighty percent of the average yield
				  strength determined by the tensile tests;
(B) The lowest yield strength determined by
				  the tensile tests, but not more than 52,000 p.s.i.
Hawaii Administrative Rules › Title 6 - DEPARTMENT OF BUDGET AND FINANCE › Division - PUBLIC UTILITIES COMMISSION › Chapter 77 - TRANSPORTATION OF NATURAL AND OTHER GAS BY PIPELINE; MINIMUM SAFETY STANDARDS › Subchapter 5 - MINIMUM SAFETY STANDARDS - PIPE DESIGN › Section 6-77-31 - Nominal wall thickness (t) for steel pipe

Current through June, 2024
(a) If the nominal
				  wall thickness for steel pipe is not known, it is determined by measuring the
				  thickness of each piece of pipe at quarter points on one end.
(b) However, if the pipe is of uniform grade,
				  size, and thickness and there are more than ten lengths, only ten percent of
				  the individual lengths, but not less than ten lengths, need be measured. The
				  thickness of the lengths that are not measured must be verified by applying a
				  gauge set to the minimum thickness found by the measurement. The nominal wall
				  thickness to be used in the design formula in section 6-77-29 is the next wall
				  thickness found in commercial specifications that is below the average of all
				  the measurements taken. However, the nominal wall thickness used may not be
				  more than 1.14 times the smallest measurement taken on pipe less than twenty
				  inches in outside diameter, nor more than 1.11 times the smallest measurement
				  taken on pipe twenty inches or more in outside diameter.

Current through June, 2024
(a) Except as
				  otherwise provided in subsections (b), (c), and (d), the design factor to be
				  used in the design formula in section 6-77-29 is determined in accordance with
				  the following table:
Class location
| Design factor (F)
1................................
| 0.72
2................................
| 0.60
3................................
| 0.50
4................................
| 0.40
(b) A design factor of 0.60 or less must be
				  used in the design formula in section 6-77-29 for steel pipe in Class 1
				  locations that:
(1) Crosses the right-of-way
				  of an unimproved public road, without a casing;
(2) Crosses without a casing, or makes a
				  parallel encroachment on the right-of-way of either a hard surfaced road, a
				  highway, a public street, or a railroad;
(3) Is supported by a vehicular, pedestrian,
				  railroad, or pipeline bridge; or
(4) Is used in a fabricated assembly,
				  (including separators, mainline valve assemblies, cross connections, and river
				  crossing headers) or is used within five pipe diameters in any direction from
				  the last fitting of a fabricated assembly, other than a transition piece or an
				  elbow used in place of a pipe bend which is not associated with a fabricated
				  assembly.
