English term or phrase: crest-to-trough dimension
The allowable height of mild ripples in carbon steel pipe formed during the cold bending process can be determined from Fig. 851.4.1-1, where d is the maximum depth or crest-to-trough dimension of the ripple and D is the specified outside diameter of the pipe. Ripples in carbon steel pipe are acceptable if their height is below the line shown. Ripples with heights above the line may be demonstrated to be acceptable using a more rigorous analysis.
