Description

Experimental results on plastic deformation of four pipes exposed to pure bending and of sixteen tee-intersections of pipes exposed to out-of-plane couples at the branch are given. The test data indicate that both pipes and tees buckle plastically under these loading conditions and that in case of tees exposed to out-of-plane couples the carrying capacity is determined by plastic buckling and not by plastic limit loads for certain geometries.
