However, the practitioner (user) should also be able to acquire the necessary data and standard variables for internally pressure-loaded pipe in a relatively simple manner without spending a lot of time. This chapter presents the basic principles required for designing plastic pipe systems. 7.2 Calculating pipe parameters 7.2.1 Explanation The calculation of thermoplastic pipe systems is especially important for the engineer undertaking a project. We have abstained from detailing the derivation or reproduction of single values to abbreviate this section. Plastic-specific parameters and generally valid factors are partly already integrated into calculation formulae.
Note: The listed mathematical operations and relations have been simplified as much as possible.
