Expansion Loop Requirements. Generally, if the total expansion in any @irection on the pipeway is less than 10", the loop could be avoided by locating an anchor in the middle of the run. The total expansion between loop anchors should not exceed 12". The expansion at the change of direction (i.e. points "a" ang “B'in the example, paragraph 1.4) should not exceed 5". Consult the Supervising Stress engineer for any exceptions. —~Expansion Loop Requirements.
