Distortion , expansion joints

Except for some specialized applications of the corrugated type, expansion joints and bends require good pipe alignment to perform satisfactorily. Guides serve two important purposes. When installed near an expansion joint they prevent cocking of the sleeve in a slip-type joint or distortion and possible buckling of a corrugated-type joint or an expansion bend. [Pg.278]

Distortion. The deflecting of the straight lengths of the expansion joint frame coupled with temperature differentials and induced stresses as a result of welding can cause the internal sleeves to distort, which as a result may cause them to clash or even frill off. [Pg.303]
