    Abstract: A behavior estimation method includes a first step of calculating number of earthquake resistant joints required for absorbing a fault displacement amount in a pipe orthogonal direction, based on an allowable deflection angle and a pipe effective length, and calculating a deflection range in a pipe axis direction, a second step of calculating a load, received by the pipe due to relative displacement between the pipe and ground corresponding to a ground spring model in the pipe orthogonal direction defined with spring constants respectively for relative displacements smaller and larger than a predetermined relative displacement, a third step of calculating a bending moment distribution of joint positions from a bending moment of a trapezoidal distribution load, and obtaining a pipe deflection angle at each of the joint positions based on a predetermined joint deflection spring model, and a deflection performance evaluation step.

    Abstract: In a pipe joint, a spigot is inserted into a socket; a lock ring is accommodated in a lock ring-accommodating groove formed in the inner circumference of the socket; and an engaging part formed in the outer circumference of the spigot, wherein the engaging part engages with the lock ring from a back side of the socket in a separation direction A of the spigot, thereby preventing the spigot from separating from the socket. The engaging part is formed at a position receding from a distal end of the spigot in the separation direction A of the spigot. A bending suppressing member for restricting the socket and the spigot in a bending direction C is provided between the inner circumference of the socket and the outer circumference of the spigot in the range between the distal end of the spigot and the engaging part.

    Abstract: A pipe-joining centering device aligns, with an axial center of one pipe, an axial center of another pipe when a spigot of the other pipe is to be inserted into a socket of the one pipe. The pipe-joining centering device includes a support member configured to support an end part of the spigot. The support member is tiltable in a pipe radial direction between an inner peripheral surface of the socket and an outer peripheral surface of the spigot. The pipe-joining centering device also includes a position adjustment member configured to tilt the support member in the pipe radial direction. The support member and the position adjustment member are supported on the inner peripheral surface of the socket.

    Abstract: There are provided a pipeline structure and a computer readable recording medium having recorded thereon a program that supports the design of the pipeline structure. The pipeline structure includes two collars and a plurality of short pipes. The plurality of short pipes are connected by joint structures. Two collars are arranged to sandwich a zone where a fault displacement is expected to occur, and thereby, a ground displacement in the pipe axis direction is dealt with (absorbed). The plurality of short pipes are connected by the larger number of joints than the number of joints in the case of arranging a long pipe. By increasing the number of joints, it becomes easier to deal with (absorb) a ground displacement in the direction perpendicular to a pipe axis.

    Abstract: A ring body to be provided in a pipe joint which can prevent a spigot from separating from a socket by a spigot protrusion engaging with a lock ring from the back side of the socket in the separation direction A of the spigot. The ring body includes a main body part which is inserted into between the inner peripheral surface of the socket and the outer peripheral surface of the spigot to be provided in the pipe joint, and a deviation prevention member that prevents the main body part from deviating to the opening end side of the socket, wherein the main body part moves the spigot in the pipe radial direction with respect to the socket, thereby reducing deviation in the pipe radial direction between the pipe axis of a first pipe and the pipe axis of a second pipe.
