A.3 Loads<br />

A.3.1 Functional loads<br />

— Weight<br />

— Reactions from components<br />

— Interactions with other components (wear, friction, interference)<br />

— Applied tension<br />

— Pre-stressing (permanent curvature, mooring/anchoring…)<br />

— Permanent deformation of supporting structure<br />

— External hydrostatic pressure<br />

— Vacuum<br />

— Service induced vacuum<br />

— Internal pressure<br />

— Thermal stresses due to temperature of content<br />

— Slugging flow<br />

— Internal fluid flow<br />

— Loads induced by frequent pigging operations<br />

— Loads related to operations and normal use of the installation (cranes, helicopters, drilling, engorgement…)<br />

— Fouling<br />

— Traffic loads<br />

— Live loads<br />

— Installation loads.<br />

A.3.2 Environmental loads<br />

— Wind<br />

— Waves<br />

— Currents<br />

— Ice<br />

— Possible loads due to ice bulb growth<br />

— Snow<br />

— Earthquake<br />

— Movement of earth<br />

— Cover (soil, rock, and mattresses…)<br />

— Reaction from seafloor<br />

— Permanent deformation due to subsidence of ground<br />

— Soil conditions<br />

— Thermal expansion and contraction due to external temperatures<br />

— Moisture (swelling loads)<br />

— Tides<br />

— Vibrations<br />

— Trawl<br />

— Flooding / ground water buoyancy.<br />

A.3.3 Accidental loads<br />

— Collisions (vessel impact or other drifting items)<br />

— Dropped objects<br />

— Explosion<br />

— Fire (load redistribution during / after fire)<br />

— Operational malfunction (e.g. leakage or other effects from nearby pipes…)<br />

— Trawl (hooking is normally to be classified as accidental loads)<br />

— Dragging anchor<br />

— Unintended change in ballast condition<br />

— Mud slides<br />

— Failure of an anchor line or dynamic positioning system<br />

— Weld spatter<br />

— Handling by forklift.<br />
