The Pull Towards Magnetostrictive Collars for Guiding Corrosion Under Pipe Support Inspections
Navigating the Maze: Unique Challenges of Different Pipe Support Geometry
Pipe supports come in different types, each with its own set of unique challenges due to their geometry. One common type is the simple support, which can be mechanically clamped or simply "resting" on the pipe. These supports, with no welded connection to the pipe, pose a higher risk of corrosion. Their geometry, often in the form of I-Beams or clamps, presents challenges in accessing and inspecting the areas underneath. On the other hand, welded supports provide a stronger connection to the pipe but introduce their own complications. The welded connection can potentially mask wall loss indications, making it trickier to detect corrosion within it. Additionally, the complex geometry of welded supports requires careful consideration to ensure comprehensive inspections. Understanding these different pipe support types and their geometry is crucial in developing effective inspection strategies to combat corrosion and maintain the integrity of the piping system, occasionally requiring complimentary techniques to accommodate differing support geometries. Moreover, factors like access, pipe diameter, and end-user requirements will play a role in determining the most suitable inspection strategy.

MegaRust
June 13, 2023
MegaRust is scheduled for June 13-15, 2023 at the Hampton Roads Convention Center, Hampton, VA! MegaRust is conducted annually to provide a consolidated focus on Navy corrosion issues. Corrosion is a major factor in the readiness and total ownership cost of naval systems and this conference is intended to provide updated information on programs, policies, standards and Fleet experience related to corrosion and to promote discussion and sharing of information on technologies and strategies for controlling corrosion.
