Description / Abstract: The purpose of this study is to begin the process of developing an appropriate and accurate method of predicting fatigue failure due to internal pressure loading in piping components. Historically, piping component fatigue has been analyzed using the approach of Markl [1]. The results from the cyclic pressure testing of 41 piping intersections have been evaluated. The fatigue results were found to follow the Markl type power law relationship with some considerable scatter. The scatter observed in the data is attributed to variation due to the nature of fatigue failure in large welded structures. It is further concluded that several design curves are appropriate for use as a design rule for pressure induced fatigue.
