EN 13480-6:2012
(Main)Metallic industrial piping - Part 6: Additional requirements for buried piping
General Information
- Abstract
This European Standard specifies requirements for industrial piping either totally buried or partly buried and partly run in sleeves or similar protection. It is used in conjunction with the other six parts of
EN 13480.
Where buried piping subject to this standard connects to piping installed under other jurisdiction such as pipelines, the transition should be made at a closing element e.g. an isolating or regulating valve separating the two sections. This should be close to the boundary of the industrial site, but may be inside or outside the boundary.
Operating temperature up to 75 °C.
NOTE For higher temperatures reference should be made to EN 13941, but it should be kept in mind, that CEN/TC 107 only deals with pre-insulated piping with temperatures up to 140 °C and diameters up to 800 mm, which is state of the art for these products.

5.2.1 A simple single dimensional model linking buried pipes and the surrounding ground may be sufficient for piping designed in accordance with EN 13480-3:2012. More complex analysis of pipe to soil interaction may be used where sufficient accurate geo-mechanical data is available, or where the conditions of this annex cannot be met. NOTE It is assumed that the loads imposed by the piping on the soil do not exceed its load bearing capacity. SIST EN 13480-6:2012
