Piping is an important material for fluid transportation in modern industry, and well-structured piping can reduce losses due to maintenance and replacement downtime. Therefore it is necessary to design and analyze the pipes in order to optimize their structure. This paper focuses on composite laminated pipes. In this design case, the structural analysis of this pipe will be carried out by applying the laminate theory, and the structural analysis model will be established by using Mathcad software. The stress and strain of each laminate will be calculated by entering the winding angle and the corresponding equations in this software. The final optimal winding Angle can be determined by verifying the winding angles that can be maintained under maximum stress failure criteria using Mathcad contours and detailed tables of winding and torsion angles.
