I have searched and searched, and I can't find a formula!?! I asked before and D_Hall (who I assume to be correct) told me that it is basically the same formula for burst pressure of a pipe, but I had to use the general form equation, not the thin wall approximation. I am also having some difficulties finding the compressive yield strength of various materials. Does anyone have a good resource?

Thanks

Do you want equations or do you just want to know for a certain pipe?

equations would be nice, since this will be a custom job.

and I don't like to be spoonfed... 8)
