That’s Confusing! Suggestions for Preparing Concise Design Guidelines for Pipeline Projects
Publication: Pipelines 2019: Planning and Design
ABSTRACT
Owners of transmission main projects frequently provide project-specific design guidelines or standard criteria to the design teams for their projects. Large projects may involve several teams, each designing a different portion of the system. Having the design teams follow the owner-established criteria or guidelines provides uniformity between multiple projects and between the various segments of large projects. Occasionally, portions of the design criteria and guidelines prepared for pipeline projects can be confusing and be interpreted different ways. This paper presents a list of criteria that should be considered for inclusion in design guidelines, provides several examples of design criteria and guidelines that may be unclear, and explains how the criteria and guidelines could be improved.
