According to KGS FS551, the safety of an exposure pipe system should be calculated quantitatively by calculating the stress of exposed piping for thermal expansion. However, many pipe system designs and installation sites are not equipped for this. Therefore, KGS FS551 suggested the use of safe gas by presenting the recommended pipe shape. The shapes of various pipe systems have been derived. However, the recommended shape could not be an absolute evaluation standard. Furthermore, the ongoing debate over standards between a plumbing installer and an inspector is an obstacle to the efficient and safe use of gas. Therefore, the correct pipe system evaluation method is examined in this study, and the safety of the existing exposed pipe system is verified.
