Plan for Eight Field Tests on 20 and 30 Inch Pipe
Eight field tests are planned on 20 and 30 inch pipe at various temperatures. Tests occur weeks apart with dry ice around ruptured line segments and electric fans circulating air to control temperatures within five degrees. Wires around the pipe measure crack velocity via an electronic timer as notches and scratches are added to promote failure. A detonating charge initiates fracture. The group is led by Mr. de Mey as the Line Pipe Field and Laboratory Research Committee within ASA. Other participants include B D Goodrich, Earl Smith, Lloyd Jackson, Harry Udin, and E C Wright.
