This recommended practice, Steel Pipelines Crossing
Railroads and Highways, gives primary emphasis to provisions
for public safety. It covers the design, installation, inspection,
and testing required to ensure safe crossings of steel pipelines
under railroads and highways. The provisions apply to the design
and construction of welded steel pipelines under railroads and
highways. The provisions of this practice are formulated to protect
the facility crossed by the pipeline, as well as to provide
adequate design for safe installation and operation of the
pipeline.

of pipelines crossing under railroads and highways and to the
adjustment of existing pipelines crossed by railroad or highway
