Book excerpt: In this compilation of peer-reviewed papers, contributors review the latest research, new designs, innovative methods of construction and maintenance, and regulatory issues associated with cross-country and urban pipelines. The crossings of highways, railroads, bodies of water, and seismic areas with buried or aerial pipelines are featured. In addition, papers and case studies address risk assessment and safety, trenchless crossings, seismic and low stability areas, and materials. The Manual of Practice on Pipeline Crossings is then briefly introduced as a guide for engineers and owners of pipelines in the design, construction, and permitting of pipeline crossings.
