In the fabrication of offshore structures, cutouts are often made on pipes to allow access to the interior of the pipes for maintenance and servicing. Thus, there is a necessity to investigate the effects of cutouts on the buckling load of pipes. Both the finite element and experimental techniques have been employed to investigate several series of pipes with and without cutouts. The results obtained were in reasonably good agreement with those obtained by the semiempirical solution.
