The aim of this Standard GW 368 is to determine the lengths of pipeline to be locked against longitudinal forces.

The Worksheet applies to ductile cast iron and steel pipes, fittings and valves. In principle, the formulaic correspondences described can also be applied to pipes in other materials. However, the properties of the other materials must be taken into account in each case, particularly specific weight and friction coefficient.
