American Society of Heating and Ventilating Engineers Guide, 1937 Chapter 34--Pipe, Fittings, Welding perature results in an increase in length of the pipe for which provision must be made. The amount of linear expansion (or contraction in the case of refrigeration lines) per unit length of material per degree change in temperature is termed the coefficient of linear expansion of that material or commonly, the coefficient of expansion. This coefficient varies with the material. The linear expansion of cast iron, steel, wrought-iron, #.nd copper pipe, Metal Cast-Iron-....... Steel-----..... \Vrought-lron_.

The elongation values in Table 6 were computed from the following formula: U = Lo [l + a (4oolr) +'* (too!?)2] (1) where it = length at temperature t degrees Fahrenheit, feet. Lo = length at 32 F, feet. 1 = final temperature, degrees Fahrenheit, a and b are constants as follows: 628 Expansion joints of the slip-sleeve, diaphragm, or corrugated types made of copper, rubber, or other gasket material are all used for taking up expansion, but generally only for low pressures or where the inherent flexibility of the pipe cannot readily be used as in underground steam or hot water distribution lines. Swivel joints are used extensively in low-pressure steam and hot water heating systems and in hot water supply lines. The swivel joints absorb the expansive movement of the pipe by the turning of threaded joints. In many cases the straight pipe in the offset of a swivel joint is sufficiently flexible to take up the expansion without developing enough thrust to produce swiveling in the threaded joint. This is preferable since con-
