Cases must meet the conditions of strength and durability. At one end of the case there should be a control tube extending under the protective device.

5.5.3 The ends of the casings when crossing gas pipelines of public railways should be placed at a distance from them not less than those established by SNiP 32-01. When laying inter-settlement gas pipelines in cramped conditions and gas pipelines on the territory of settlements, it is allowed to reduce this distance to 10 m, provided that an exhaust candle with a sampling device is installed at one end of the case, placed at a distance of at least 50 m from the edge of the roadbed (the axis of the outermost rail at zero marks).

5.5.5 The thickness of the walls of steel gas pipeline pipes when crossing public railways should be 2–3 mm greater than the calculated one, but not less than 5 mm at distances of 50 m in each direction from the edge of the roadbed (the axis of the outer rail at zero marks) .

For polyethylene gas pipelines in these sections and at the intersections of highways of categories I–Ill, polyethylene pipes of no more than SDR 11 with a safety factor of at least 2.8 should be used.

5.6.1 Gas supply to cities with a population of more than 1 million people. when the seismicity of the area is more than 6 points, as well as cities with a population of more than 100 thousand people. if the seismicity of the area is more than 7 points, it should be provided from two sources or more - main gas distribution stations with their placement on opposite sides of the city. In this case, high and medium pressure gas pipelines should be designed in a loop with their division into sections by shut-off devices.

5.6.2 Transitions of gas pipelines through rivers, ravines and railway tracks in excavations, laid in areas with seismicity of more than 7 points, must be provided above ground. The structures of the supports must ensure the possibility of movements of gas pipelines that occur during an earthquake.

With uniform heaving in pounds, the depth of laying the gas pipeline to the top of the pipe should be:

not less than 0.7 standard freezing depth, but not less than 0.9 m for medium heaving soils;

not less than 0.8 standard freezing depth, but not less than 1.0 m for strongly and excessively heaving soils.

5.6.5 For LPG tank installations with underground tanks in heaving (except slightly heaving), medium and highly swelling soils, provision must be made for above-ground laying of liquid and vapor phase gas pipelines connecting the tanks.

5.6.6 If the seismicity of the area is more than 7 points, in undermined and karst areas, in areas of permafrost, pipes with a safety factor of at least 2.8 should be used for polyethylene gas pipelines. Welded butt joints must undergo 100% control by physical methods.

5.7.1 To restore (reconstruct) worn-out underground steel gas pipelines outside and on the territory of urban and rural settlements, the following should be used:

at a pressure of up to 0.3 MPa inclusive, drawing polyethylene pipes in a gas pipeline with a safety factor of at least 2.5 without welded joints or connected using parts with a seal, or connected by butt welding using welding equipment of a high degree of automation;

at a pressure from 0.3 to 0.6 MPa inclusive, stretching polyethylene pipes in a gas pipeline without welded joints or connected using parts with welded joints or butt welding using highly automated welding equipment with a safety factor for gas pipelines in settlements of at least 2, 8, and outside settlements – at least 2.5. The space between the polyethylene pipe and the steel worn-out gas pipeline (frame) along the entire length must be filled with sealing (sealing) material ( cement-sand mortar, foam material);

at a pressure of up to 1.2 MPa, lining (using Phoenix technology) the cleaned inner surface of gas pipelines with a synthetic fabric hose on a special two-component adhesive, subject to confirmation in the prescribed manner of their suitability for these purposes at the specified pressure or in accordance with standards (technical conditions); the scope of which extends to this pressure.

5.7.2 Restoration of worn-out steel gas pipelines is carried out without changing the pressure, with an increase or decrease in pressure compared to the existing gas pipeline.

In this case, it is allowed to save:

intersections of restored areas with underground utilities without installing additional casings;

depth of installation of restored gas pipelines;

distances from the restored gas pipeline to buildings, structures and utilities according to its actual location, if the pressure of the restored gas pipeline does not change or when the pressure of the restored gas pipeline increases to 0.3 MPa.

Restoring worn-out steel gas pipelines with increasing pressure to high is permitted if the distances to buildings, structures and utilities meet the requirements for a high-pressure gas pipeline.

5.7.3 The ratio of the sizes of polyethylene and steel pipes during reconstruction by the pulling method should be selected based on the possibility of free passage of polyethylene pipes and parts inside steel ones and ensuring the integrity of polyethylene pipes. The ends of the reconstructed sections between the polyethylene and steel pipes must be sealed.

At what distance from the fence and other buildings? high voltage line power transmission and other communications, it is possible to build a home - an issue that requires a priority solution. Failure to comply with standards leads to legal conflicts with neighbors. To avoid such problems, you should familiarize yourself in advance with the legal requirements regarding the placement of residential buildings.

The wall of the house can coincide with the line of the external fence

Fundamentals of legal regulation of the placement of buildings

No one normative act does not precisely regulate the issue of distance between buildings. The norms for the position of architectural structures on the site are determined by the local administration. To avoid paying a fine and demolition of the building, you need to contact the architecture committee to familiarize yourself with the accepted standards for the placement of buildings in a given locality.

The issue of planning buildings is regulated by the following standards:

SP 30-102-99. Establishes norms for distances between individual housing construction objects and other extensions. Thus, a residential building must be located at a distance of no less than 6 m from dwellings, garages and outbuildings on the neighboring site.
SP 4.13130.2009. The main document establishing fire safety measures. Maintaining safety distances between buildings is intended to protect buildings from fire and prevent the spread of fire due to their close proximity.
SNiP 30-02-97. Regulates the placement of buildings in gardening associations. In some cases, by decision of the local administration, the standard applies to individual housing construction, private plots and summer cottages.
SNiP 2.07.01-89. Regulates the area related to the general development of a populated area. Unlike previous standards, this regulatory act regulates the placement of buildings on the site in terms of local authorities, not the owner.

Permissible distances between houses on adjacent plots

The distances between dwellings on neighboring plots differ in different regions. The location of the site (urban or rural) is taken into account. The distance is calculated based on the position of the extreme points of the building - balcony, terrace and porch. If the dwelling is connected to a garage close to the neighboring plot, the distance is determined relative to its edge.

Table of minimum distances according to fire safety standards between houses made of different materials

The amount of indentation depends on the type of cladding. The following groups of coatings are used for wall cladding:

Non-combustible materials - stone and reinforced concrete. The safest types of cladding, characterized by a low susceptibility to fire. Stone buildings can be located at a distance of at least 6 m from each other. They are the best option for construction on small plots, allowing you to build homes near fences.
Combustible materials – lumber. To avoid a large fire, the distance between wooden buildings must be at least 15 m.

The issue of placing houses in the construction of which several materials were used is being addressed separately. Dwellings with stone walls, but wooden floors, should be placed at a distance of at least 8 m from each other. The same distance is maintained if structures in neighboring areas are built from different groups of materials.

Limiting the distance from the wall of the house to the fence and neighboring buildings

By general rules The distance from the dwelling to the fence according to SNiP must be at least 3 m, and between neighboring houses - at least 6 m. A small, less than a meter, setback of the dwelling from the border of the site is a violation. If a neighbor built his house a meter from the fence, you can safely go to court, even when the normative distance between dwellings is observed.

Minimum distances of objects and buildings to the neighbor’s fence

When planning the future use of the site, it is recommended to draw a diagram of it. The land should be divided into zones, in one of which a residential building will be built, and in the others - a garage and other necessary extensions. According to GOST, buildings must be removed from the fence and the house at the following intervals (m):

at least 1 – outbuildings for storing equipment;
6 – from the windows of a neighbor’s house;
at least 12 – premises for housing livestock;
6 – summer shower;
8 – toilet and compost pit.

Particular attention is paid to the location of the bathhouse. Smoke from a sauna chimney located close to a neighbor's house causes quarrels with neighbors, who may legally demand that the building be demolished.

To avoid troubles when building a bathhouse, adhere to the following distances:

at least 12 m from neighboring structures - for smoky steam rooms;
more than 6 m from the fence and the house, at least 4 m from buildings located on the site - for a sauna;
at least 12 m from the neighbor’s bathhouse and other wooden buildings.

The garden plot is also subject to zoning. It is necessary to plan the land so that it can be used to build living quarters and the necessary outbuildings. Architectural structures located on the SNT site are erected at a distance of (m) from its boundaries:

4 – greenhouse, pen for birds and livestock;
1 – buildings for storing equipment;
8 – bathhouse, toilet and shower.

It is better to discuss the short distance between the house and the neighbor’s fence with the neighbors

If you want to build a septic tank on your property, it is recommended to obtain the consent of your neighbors. Despite the fact that the construction of a sewage treatment system requires permission only from the local sanitary and epidemiological service authority, a preliminary discussion and written consent to construction will protect owners from false complaints about “soil flooding and unpleasant odor” from unscrupulous neighbors.

Coordination of the design of the treatment system allows you to avoid situations where a septic tank is mistakenly built close, literally a meter from the drinking water well.

The purifier is placed at a distance of at least 5 m from the home and 3 m from the boundaries of the site. The system should not be located far from a residential building, as this often leads to blockages.

Distance from the house to the object outside the fence

When deciding on the placement of a house on a site, they also take into account the distance of the future building to power lines, gas pipelines, railways and cemeteries. This will protect households from traffic noise and fumes from burial sites, and avoid flooding and subsidence of a private building located on excessively wet soil.

Before power lines

To protect the population from damage electric shock Due to accidental deformation of wires, security zones are established on both sides of power lines. Within these areas, housing construction and the construction of dacha and gardening partnerships are prohibited. If a house does end up within the power line, it is not demolished, but a ban on reconstruction and capital construction is imposed.

The minimum distance from the house to the power line depends on its voltage

Compliance with power line security zones also ensures the safety of the electrical network section from fluctuations that occur during the construction of a house. The safe distance from the fence to power lines is determined based on the voltage level and is:

35 kV – 15 m;
110 kV – 20 m;
220 kV – 25 m;
500 kV – 30 m;
750 kV – 40 m;
1150 kV – 55 m.

To the pond

When dreaming of a house near a river or pond, you need to determine whether the purchased plot is included in a water protection zone - land adjacent to a water body with special legal protection. The establishment of a special regime is aimed at preventing pollution, siltation and salinization of the soil, preserving the richness of waters and maintaining the natural biocenosis.

The minimum distance from the house to the river depends on the type of reservoir

Building a house near a pond also carries the risk of its destruction due to its placement on softened soil. When laying the foundation, the width of the water protection zone of a river or sea is taken into account. This territory is determined by the length of the reservoir and is:

10 km – 50 m;
up to 50 km – 100 m;
over 50 km – 200 m;
for the sea - more than 500 m.

To the gas pipe

If there is an external gas pipeline on the site, the distance between it and the house must be at least 2 m. Security distance for underground pipes determined based on the gas supply pressure. Within populated areas, as a rule, the pressure in the gas pipeline does not exceed 0.005 MPa. In this case, the foundation is laid at a distance no closer than 2 m from the gas pipe.

In the village, a distance of 2 m is sufficient to the low-pressure gas pipe

To the road

In different settlements, the distance between the fence and the road varies. In small villages, as a rule, this figure should be at least 3 m. If the local administration has allowed to deviate from the standards, it is still better to build a fence away from the passage. This will not only protect residents, but also make it easier to access the site.

It is better to stay away from the dust and smells of the road: at least five meters from the fence

When talking about the distance between the fence and the road, the concepts of “road” and “roadway” are distinguished. The first is called a roadbed with a pedestrian zone and a roadside, the optimal distance to which is about 3 m. The second is considered an area for the movement of vehicles. If the land plot is located near highways, the distance to the fence should be at least 5 m.

The norm for the distance from a cemetery with an area of more than 20 hectares to a residential building is at least 500 m. If the site is located in a village near a small cemetery, the dwelling should be located at least 300 m away from it. For columbariums, memorial complexes, closed burial places, the permissible the distance to the home is 50 m.

The minimum distance to the cemetery is determined by its size

To the railway

The noise and smell from the railway will not please anyone: we are building a house no closer than 100 m

To protect land owners from train noise, the distance from the private sector to the railway must exceed 100 m. If the railway track is located in a depression, or the carrier company has taken measures to ensure noise protection (installed noise barriers, fences), it is permissible to build a house near the tracks, but not closer than 50 m.

The use of “blue fuel” for domestic needs has significant drawback– difficulty in implementing delivery and storage. This shortcoming was overcome thanks to a gas holder - a “tank” for liquefied hydrocarbon gas.

The installation of autonomous gasification is subject to a set of requirements and standards. First of all, it is necessary to evaluate the parameters of the site, determine the distance from the gas tank to the residential building, nearby buildings and communications.

The main gasification of remote villages has not yet been completed, and many settlements remain without convenient “blue fuel”. An alternative solution to centralized gas supply is the installation of a gas tank and the arrangement of an autonomous network.

A gas holder is a monolithic tank for storing natural gas. Structurally, the tank is made in the form of a tank with a neck. In the upper part there are elements that control the pressure and remaining fuel.

Undoubtedly, the exploitation of any gas equipment is associated with a certain risk, therefore a number of requirements are imposed on the organization, location and installation technology of the gas tank.

In the galgozer, liquefied gas is gradually converted into steam, the propane-butane composition enters the reactor and acquires the required pressure. The gas pipeline supplies “blue fuel” to consumers

The site for installation of a gas storage facility is assessed according to the following criteria:

relief;
the composition of the underlying and enclosing soil layers and the proximity of groundwater;
availability of water intake points, residential, utility and public premises.

Relief. The area selected for surface mounting must be level. This requirement is especially relevant when installing ground-based modifications - installation on a slope is prohibited.

Priming. It is permissible to place a gas storage facility in soil masses with different moisture contents. The convenience of excavation work and the choice of gas holder type will depend on the physical and mechanical properties of rocks.

If there is no risk of flooding of the fittings, models without a high neck can be used. As an option, a tank is suitable, where the bends are attached to welded pipes 12 cm long - this is the “safety” height, if there are doubts about flooding.

For places with "high" groundwater designs with an elongated neck have been developed to protect the fittings. Due to the protection device, the operation of the gas tank is stable and efficient

Water is an excellent conductor of heat waves, and the process of evaporation of the propane-butane mixture is determined by the temperature of the environment. The higher the indicator, the more intense the process. Installation work in low-moisture rocks is simpler, but the environment for normal gas tank operation is less favorable.

Coarse soil can be dangerous, especially if its components are weakly rounded, i.e. with sharp edges. Boulders, pebbles and large crushed stone complicate the installation of equipment, and the mass of gravel and debris creates additional stress on the gas pipeline.

In most cases, a pit is developed for installation, which is recommended to be filled with river or quarry sand after the structure is immersed.

Proximity to water intake sources. According to building regulations, the minimum distance from a gas tank to a reservoir (well, well) is 15 m, and to a water main - 5 m.

Neighborhood with buildings. Fire safety distances from liquefied gas tanks to structures are indicated in paragraph 8.1.6 of the regulatory document “Gas distribution systems” (SNiP 42-01-2002). The next section is devoted to this issue.

It is more practical to place the gas holder closer to the gate for unhindered access of the gas carrier and filling the tank.

The area above the gas storage facility is a kind of exclusion zone. It is prohibited to set up a barbecue area, install barbecues and other flammable equipment on it.

In addition, concreting or paving the site, as well as organizing a parking space and planting trees, is prohibited.

Fire distances to protected objects

Determining the optimal location on the site depends on the volume of the tank and the method of its installation: underground or above-ground installation. For each option, strict standards are defined, the neglect of which is unacceptable due to explosive, environmental and fire safety requirements.

Volume is a determining parameter for the distance of buildings

Not only the location of the container on the site, but also the ease of use depends on the correct choice of volume. The capacity of the gas tank is selected so that one refill is enough for 1-1.5 years. The volume is calculated based on the area of the house.

According to standards, 20 liters of “blue fuel” per year are consumed to heat 1 square meter of housing. If gas is simultaneously used for cooking and hot water supply, the figure increases to 27 l/year.

Knowing the dimensions of the house and the needs of the residents, it is easy to perform the calculation. For example, for a cottage of 200 sq.m, a gas holder with a volume of 4000 liters or more is suitable. An alternative option is to determine the size of the tank based on the power of the boiler installation. For example, a 50 W boiler will require a 5000 liter gas holder.

It should be noted that the maximum filling of the gas storage is 85% of the total displacement, and the minimum remaining fuel is 5%. Therefore, when choosing a gas tank, you need to take into account a certain reserve (plus 10-15%)

Standards for the location of underground gas tanks

For year-round operation in cold winter conditions, it is necessary to choose an underground “storage”. The module is immersed below the soil freezing line, which supports the natural evaporation of gas at sub-zero temperatures outside.

General standards for distance from underground tanks of any volume:

sports grounds, children's playgrounds, garages - 10 m;
underground pipeline for heating mains and sewerage – 3.5 m;
external communications not included in the backup equipment group – 5 m;
edge of the carriageway of a non-high-speed road for 1-2 lanes – 5 m;
highways and expressways with 3 or more lanes – 10 m;
access tram track, industrial railway tracks - 10 m.

The distance to buildings for various purposes is determined by the capacity of the liquefied gas tank. A gradation of values is provided for “storage” volumes: up to 10 cubic meters, 10-20 cubic meters, 20-50 cubic meters.

Distance to residential buildings for monoblock tanks up to 10 cubic meters - 10 m, up to 20 cubic meters - 15 m, up to 50 cubic meters - 20 m. Distance from public buildings - 15, 20 and 30 m, respectively

Various standards are provided for regarding production premises. The range of distances is 8-15 m. The distance to general purpose railways is also regulated - 20-30 m, depending on the displacement of the gas tank.

SNiP allows for a reduction in the interval between a residential building and a “gas vat” by 50%. However, such a decision must be justified on technical grounds and approved by the local gas distribution systems department.

The distance should be measured from the nearest point of the foundation to the wall of the gas tank. This norm is not specified in regulatory documents, but is practiced when installing a gas storage facility

In addition to the requirements for the distance of the gas tank from various objects, there is a list of rules for regulating underground “storage”:

installation depth - at least 60 cm from the top wall of the tank to the ground surface;
the distance between underground gas tanks is at least 1 m;
the neck and fittings of the container must remain freely accessible.

Regardless of the displacement, the underground tank is mounted on a foundation - a concrete slab. The base prevents the tank from “floating” in the event of ground movements.

Subtleties of installing an above-ground tank

The use of a ground-based gas tank has several significant advantages: simplicity, speed of installation and reduction in the intensity of metal corrosion. Local damage is easy to detect and correct in a timely manner.

However, this type of equipment is rarely used to supply gas to a private home. The main reason is a significant decrease in system performance in winter. At subzero temperatures (below -0.5°C), liquefied gas does not evaporate naturally.

To support the process, the gas tank must be equipped with an evaporator. With insignificant consumption of “blue fuel”, capital investments in gasification take a very long time to pay off. Due to the above-ground location, the requirements for fire safety distances from the gas storage facility to buildings and other objects are more stringent.

The minimum distances are given separately for three groups of standard sizes: up to 5 cubic meters, from 5 to 10 cubic meters and tanks with a capacity of 10-20 cubic meters. The “+” sign indicates the distance from the gas tank to real estate not served by the installation

Additional restrictions on the location of the above-ground “gas vat”:

general purpose railways – 25-30-40 m in accordance with the volume;
local tram and railway tracks – 20 m;
roads IV-V categories (1-2 lanes) – 10 m, I-III categories (from 3 lanes) – 20 m.

For safety purposes, a kind of open cap is installed above the gas tank, protecting the module from direct sun rays and precipitation. Overheating of the tank or lightning can lead to an explosion, and rain and snow can lead to accelerated corrosion.

Placement of mobile gas storage facilities

A mini-gas tank is a capacious gas cylinder with a volume of up to 500 cubic meters, equipped with the fittings required for safe operation: a reducer, a level gauge and safety valves. The equipment is characterized by compact dimensions, for example, the parameters of a 480 liter tank are: length - 2 m, diameter - 60 cm.

When used correctly, its service life is the same as that of a full-size gas tank. The mini-model is placed permanently or installed on a trailer, which ensures the mobility of the gas storage.

Refueling is greatly simplified, as it becomes possible both at the location and at the gas filling station.

An important advantage of a mini-gas holder is the absence of strict requirements for its placement. Work on connecting the tank to the gas system of the house takes about two hours

According to SP 63.13330 of 2011, the minimum distance from the house to a small gas tank is acceptable, namely placement directly next to the wall. The distance between the equipment and other protected objects is not specified.

Mini-gas tanks are in demand to ensure autonomous gasification of premises with relatively low or seasonal fuel consumption: country houses, heating cafe areas, hotels. The reservoir is often used as a backup source of gas in case of interruptions in the centralized pipeline.

Set of requirements for laying a gas pipeline

Certain standardized standards are also required for the installation of a gas pipeline running from the gas tank to the house. Gas is supplied to the premises via an underground pipeline through the basement inlet. Safety rules prohibit introducing a gas pipeline into a house underground.

Scheme of introducing a pipe line into a house. Designations: 1 – gas tank, 2 – concrete slab base, 3 – condenser tank, 4 – underground pipeline, 5 – base input unit

General requirements for laying a gas pipeline in the gas tank-house section:

track depth – at least 1.7 m;
trench width - there are no strict restrictions, the value depends on the footage of the gas pipeline and the quality of the soil;
the minimum slope towards the condensate collector is 1 cm per 1 m (no more than 5°), the maximum slope is 100 mm;
the distance from the highway to the foundations of buildings is 2 m or more;
the distance to parallel located communications is 1 m, with a cross arrangement – 2 m in height.

The underground gas pipeline line is installed from high-density polyethylene pipes containing nitrile. Ground line - steel gas pipes. The polymer pipeline should not reach the point where the ground temperature drops to -20°C or less.

The transition of the polyethylene-steel gas pipeline is carried out at a depth of 40 cm. The area must be protected from electrochemical corrosion - it is used polymer coating to a height above ground level

Safety of gas tank operation

Despite all the advantages of autonomous gasification, many consumers are scared off by the thought of the risks of storing a flammable substance on a site near a residential building.

To ensure safety, it is not enough to maintain the required distances during installation; it is necessary to comply with all conditions for refueling, operation and maintenance of the gas holder installation.

Operating rules:

Preservation of an inexhaustible supply - about ¼ of the volume. When all the fuel is used, a vacuum is formed in the container; further refueling in violation of the technology may result in an explosion.
Filling of the gas tank exclusively by a specialized company. Insignificant savings on the services of unqualified gas workers can lead to a fire.
Monitoring the operation of the safety valve. Timely troubleshooting will prevent an emergency.
Prevent gas leakage. The leakage of “blue fuel” is the most dangerous - the propane-butane mixture “spreads” downwards, since it is heavier than air.

There is a possibility of fuel leakage if the tank is damaged, the fittings are faulty, unqualified repairs or refueling are performed, as well as if the gas distribution system elements are not hermetically sealed.

Safety of operation and refueling is ensured by the following equipment: 1 – draining of residues from the condenser tank, 2 – safety valve, 3 – reducer, 4 – gas pipeline, 5 – level gauge – measuring the fullness of the tank, 6 – filling valve, 7 – gas extraction valve, 8 – pressure gauge, 9 – liquid gas extraction valve

Mandatory precautions include the use of lightning protection and grounding. It is not permissible to carry out welding work, lighting a fire.

You will be introduced to the standard prices for installing a gas tank, in which all the items of upcoming expenses are analyzed in detail and recommendations for possible savings are given.

to bridges, pipes, tunnels and pedestrian bridges and tunnels (with large crowds of people) on railways - 30 m;
to the switches (the beginning of the points, the tail of the crosses, the places where suction cables are connected to the rails) - 3 m for tram tracks and 10 m for railways;
to the contact network supports - 3 m.
Reducing the specified distances is allowed in agreement with the organizations in charge of the crossed structures.
The need to install identification posts (signs) and their design at gas pipeline crossings through the railways of the general network is decided in agreement with the Russian Ministry of Railways.

4.54.* Laying underground gas pipelines of all pressures at intersections with railway and tram tracks, roads of I, II and III categories, as well as expressways within the city, main streets and roads of citywide importance should be provided in steel cases.
The need to install casings on gas pipelines at the intersection of main streets and roads of regional importance, roads of freight importance, as well as streets and roads of local importance is decided by the design organization, depending on the intensity of traffic. In this case, it is allowed to provide non-metallic cases that meet the conditions of strength and durability.
The ends of the cases must be sealed. At one end of the case there should be a control tube extending under the protective device, and on inter-settlement gas pipelines - an exhaust candle with a sampling device, placed at a distance of at least 50 m from the edge of the roadbed.
In the interpipe space of the case it is allowed to lay an operational communication cable, telemechanics, telephone, electrical protection drain cable intended for servicing the gas supply system.

1. What is the distance of the gas pipe from the fence?

1.1. Dear Vladimir,

Issues with the construction of structures in the security zone of gas pipelines are quite controversial. The main regulatory act in this area is the Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation of November 20, 2000 N 878 (as amended on May 17, 2016) “On approval of the Rules for the protection of gas distribution networks.”
To start:
“protection zone of the gas distribution network” - a territory with special conditions of use, established along the routes of gas pipelines and around other objects of the gas distribution network in order to ensure normal conditions of its operation and eliminate the possibility of its damage (clause “e” of clause 3 of the Resolution);
According to paragraphs. “a” clause 7 of the Resolution,
The following security zones are established for gas distribution networks: a) along the routes of external gas pipelines - in the form of a territory limited conditional lines, passing at a distance 2 meters on each side of the gas pipeline.
I assume that you are talking about an ordinary low-pressure gas pipeline, that is, pipes that are often laid along the streets on iron poles.

The types of activities prohibited in the security zone are established by clause 14 of the Resolution, in particular, there is clause "e", prohibiting:
fence and block security zones, prevent personnel of operating organizations from accessing gas distribution networks, carrying out maintenance and eliminating damage to gas distribution networks.

The security zone itself must be marked in the land management documents for the site.

Please keep the following in mind:
1. In relation to structures, including fences, it matters what was built first: the fence itself or the gas pipeline.
2. Nowadays, there are often cases when a gas transportation organization (the corresponding “Oblgaz”) stupidly enters into public easement agreements with land owners, that is, the owner must allow a gas service employee onto his territory for pipe maintenance. This excludes claims regarding the fence in the security zone.
3. The law distinguishes between the concept of a security zone and the concept of a minimum distance to an object. If the object is located within the security zone and does not interfere with the operation of the gas pipeline, the courts do not make a decision on the demolition of such objects;
4. Disputes regarding the possible demolition of structures within the protected zone are resolved exclusively in court, and, as a rule, land management and () or construction and technical forensic examination is required. That is, the neighbor/regional gas company will not argue over every fence.

Based on this, if you need to build a fence in the security zone of a gas pipeline, I recommend going to the regional gas office and consulting - perhaps they will not have any claims if an easement agreement is concluded.

2. What is the distance of the gas pipe from the fence in St.

2.1. Nina Vasilievna, it is impossible to answer your question unambiguously, since there is no information available on the type of gas pipeline laying and its pressure.
1. If the gas pipeline is underground: According to SNiP 42-01-2002 Gas distribution systems, updated version SP 62.13330.2011 Appendix B, the distance from gas pipelines to the foundations of buildings and structures with a nominal diameter of up to 300 mm: - up to 0.005 MPa - 2 meters; - St. 0.005 to 0.3 MPa – 4 meters; - St. 0.3 to 0.6 MPa – 7 meters. Over 300 mm: - up to 0.005 MPa – 2 meters; - St. 0.005 to 0.3 MPa – 4 meters; - St. 0.3 to 0.6 MPa – 7 meters. Also, according to the Rules for the Protection of Gas Distribution Networks approved by Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation of November 20, 2000 N 878, a security zone is established for gas distribution networks along the routes of external gas pipelines - in the form of a territory limited by conditional lines running at a distance of 2 meters on each side of the gas pipeline.
2. If the gas pipeline is above ground: The distance to residential buildings is not standardized. It is only necessary to comply with the conditions for the intersection of the gas pipeline with window and door openings - 0.5 m and below the roof - 0.2 m.

3. At what distance from the gas pipe can a kebab bar be placed.

3.1. Check with the owner of the pipe. Gas pipelines may vary in hazard class, and accordingly, the zones may be different.
Sincerely.

4. Hello, at what distance from the gas pipe can you build a house?

4.1. To answer your question, you need to have information about the gas pipeline (class, diameter, categories, etc.), but if you have such information, you have the opportunity to independently determine the minimum distance at which there are legal grounds for building a residential building (in order to eliminate the risks of demolition of the house).
Follow clause 3.17 of the SNIP Resolution of the USSR State Construction Committee dated March 30, 1985 No. 30, SNiP 2.05.06-85*.
I also recommend contacting the owner of the specified gas industry facility for clarification on your question.
Receive an extract for the land plot, the specified extract reflects information about the encumbrance, according to the specified cadastral number of the object of encumbrance, receive an extract of ownership.

According to Art. 90 of the Land Code of the Russian Federation, the boundaries of security zones on which gas supply system facilities are located are determined on the basis of building codes and regulations, rules for the protection of main pipelines, and other normative documents approved in the prescribed manner. On the specified land plots, during their economic use, the construction of any buildings, structures, structures within the established minimum distances to gas supply system facilities is not allowed.
It is not allowed to interfere with the organization that owns the gas supply system or the organization authorized by it in carrying out work on the maintenance and repair of gas supply system facilities, eliminating the consequences of accidents and disasters that occur on them (pu. 6, Article 90 of the Land Code of the Russian Federation).

Good luck to you.

5. At what distance from the gas pipe can the land be plowed?

5.1. The security zone is a piece of land located between two parallel lines running on both sides of the gas pipeline axis (parallel).

The distance from the axis of the gas pipeline to the border depends on the category of the gas pipeline. The following standards are currently in effect:
along the routes of external gas pipelines - 2 meters on each side of the gas pipeline;
along the routes of underground gas pipelines made of polyethylene pipes when using copper wire to mark the gas pipeline route - in the form of an area limited by conditional lines running at a distance of 3 meters from the gas pipeline on the side of the wire and 2 meters on the opposite side;
along the routes of external gas pipelines on permafrost soils, regardless of the pipe material - in the form of an area limited by conditional lines running at a distance of 10 meters on each side of the gas pipeline;
around separate gas control points - in the form of a territory bounded by a closed line drawn at a distance of 10 meters from the boundaries of these objects. For gas control points attached to buildings, the security zone is not regulated;
along underwater crossings of gas pipelines through navigable and floatable rivers, lakes, reservoirs, canals - in the form of a section of water space from the water surface to the bottom, enclosed between parallel planes, spaced 100 m on each side of the gas pipeline;
along the routes of inter-settlement gas pipelines passing through forests and trees and shrubs, in the form of clearings 6 meters wide, 3 meters on each side of the gas pipeline. For above-ground sections of gas pipelines, the distance from trees to the pipeline must be no less than the height of the trees throughout the entire life of the gas pipeline.
Moreover standard distances are established taking into account the significance of the objects, the conditions for laying the gas pipeline, gas pressure and other factors, but not less than the building codes and regulations approved by the specially authorized federal executive body in the field of urban planning and construction. That is, more of the above is possible, but less is not possible. These standards were introduced by Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation of November 20, 2000 No. 878 “On approval of the Rules for the protection of gas distribution networks.”

As a rule, on private land plots there are only pipes supplying gas consumers. For example, this could be a steel pipe with a diameter of 80 mm. Such a gas pipeline has a security zone of 2 meters on each side.

My friends bought a plot of land where they built a house more than 20 years ago. Since then, they have paid taxes and completed documents for the house, everything is as it should be. Only last year they learned that at a distance of 270 meters from the house there is a high-pressure gas main pipe. And there is a threat of demolition of the house. What can you do in this situation? Read answers (2)

6. At what distance should a 10 kV power line support be placed from the main gas pipe.

7. At what distance from the low pressure gas pipe can trees be planted?

7.1. Uv. Igor, according to those. The standard protection zone of a low-pressure gas pipeline is 2 meters. Based on this, it is necessary to take into account the possibility of forming a tree crown at a specified distance from the pipe.

8. A neighbor asks for consent to install a gas pipe (overground) along my property along the fence. A bathhouse is adjacent to the fence (approximately 1 m distance from the fence to the bathhouse). What burdens are imposed on me?

8.1. The security zone from the overhead gas pipeline (depending on the pressure) is 2 meters. There may be problems with the demolition of your bathhouse.

9. A neighbor wants to lay a gas pipe to his house along my fence, the fence is 2 m high, there are brick posts between them, a fence made of metal profiles, what are the standards for laying a gas pipe by air to a private house, what supports for the pipe should be, at what height, at what is the distance from the neighboring house or plot, is it a violation to run a gas pipe along the fence.

9.1. Good afternoon
All these questions should be addressed, first of all, to the gas service.
As for your fence, if it is only YOUR fence, then placing a gas pipe on it is only with your written consent.
Otherwise, placing an overhead gas pipeline to your neighbor’s house is possible on the territory of the neighbor’s land plot.

9.2. Hello, your neighbor does not have the right to install a pipe along your fence without your consent. This is your property and you only have the right to dispose of it as an owner in accordance with Article 209 of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation.

9.3. In accordance with SNiP 42-01-2002 Federal Law "Technical Regulation" No. 184 of 2002, as well as Government Decree No. 858 - SP 62.13.3310.2011, the distance should be from 2 to 3 m.

9.4. The distance should be from 2 to 3 m in accordance with SNiP 42-01-2002 Federal Law "Technical Regulation" No. 184 of 2002.

9.5. Gas pipe on the site: what restrictions and rules must be followed during gasification
Laying a gas pipeline on the site of a private house is a responsible task, since gas is an explosive substance. The installation of a gas pipeline must comply with all building codes and regulations, and also take into account some restrictions that are imposed on these systems for safety reasons. First of all, to understand the issue, it is necessary to understand the types of gas pipelines.
The presence of gas pipes and equipment on the site requires compliance with safety rules during construction.
1 Types of gas pipelines
2 Operational Features gas pipelines made of different materials
3 Options for laying gas pipeline systems
4 Rules for gasification of a private house
5 SNiP restrictions when laying a gas pipeline
6 Security zone of the gas pipeline
7 Gas pipe on the site: what restrictions exist for the security zone?
Types of gas pipelines
Depending on the pressure under which gas moves through the pipes, gas pipelines are classified into three main types:
low pressure lines;
medium pressure lines;
high pressure lines.
Low pressure line. The pressure indicator in such communications reaches 0.05 kgf/cm². Such pressure in gas pipeline structures is typical for economic systems that supply gas to ordinary consumers. Such networks are installed for residential and administrative buildings, which include: multi-storey residential buildings, educational institutions, offices, hospitals, etc.
Note! For household needs, as a rule, gas is used, which has a high thermal conductivity coefficient (about 10,000 kcal/Nm³).
Pipelines with average pressure indicators. In such pipelines, gas is transported under pressure from 0.05 kgf/cm² to 3.0 kgf/cm². Such lines are in most cases used as main lines, and are also installed in the main city boiler houses.
High pressure gas pipelines. The pressure indicator in such pipelines can vary from 3.0 kgf/cm² to 6.0 kgf/cm². Such lines are installed to supply gas to various production enterprises.
Gas pipe on the site, what are the restrictions?
Networks transporting gas to end consumers are low pressure lines
There are situations in which the pressure in a gas pipeline structure may exceed the established limits. In some cases it reaches 12.0 kgf/cm² (highest pressure line). Organizing a system with such pressure indicators requires separate calculations. All gas pipelines are classified not only by pressure, but also depending on the material from which they are made.
Operational features of gas pipelines made of different materials
Gas pipelines with high pressure are mounted from pipes that have large dimensions. In cases where it is necessary to make a structure of increased strength, seamless steel pipes are used. The joining of such pipes is carried out using welding equipment. Welding such products is a rather labor-intensive process.
The most suitable material for pipes through which gas will be transported is copper. This is due to the fact that copper has several operational benefits before their steel counterparts. The main advantages of pipelines made of this material:
small weight;
easy installation;
corrosion resistance.
However, copper gas pipelines are used quite rarely, as they are expensive.
If pipes with thin walls are used when laying gas transmission lines, it is recommended to take into account their high thermal conductivity coefficient. Due to their high thermal conductivity, such products tend to become covered with condensation.
Helpful information! To ensure anti-corrosion properties, it is recommended to coat the surface of steel pipelines with oil paint (in several layers).
Gas pipe on the site, what are the restrictions?
When laying gas networks underground, the use of polymer pipes is permitted
When laying gas transmission lines underground, as a rule, pipes made of modern polymer materials are used. The most popular polymers used for these purposes are polypropylene (PP) and polyethylene (PE). The main advantages of such polymers:
high coefficient of flexibility;
corrosion resistance;
ease of installation;
democratic price.
Pipes made of polymer materials are ideal for underground installation, as they feel comfortable under such conditions. It is very important to remember that plastic pipelines are used only for organizing lines with low pressure levels. Polymer pipes have appropriate markings that determine their operational affiliation. For example, polyethylene pipes used for gasification of private buildings are produced black and have a yellow marking.
The distribution of the gas transport structure inside the house is carried out using special flexible hoses. Such hoses are made from a special material - vulcanized rubber, and are also distinguished by the fact that they have reinforcement. In most cases, they are used to connect gas stoves to geysers.
Such hoses have operational limitations that are worth paying attention to:
they do not apply if the room temperature exceeds +45 °C;
It is prohibited to use rubber hoses in areas that are located in seismically active areas (more than 6 points);
they are not used in high-pressure communications.
Options for laying gas pipeline systems
Today, there are three main options for installing gas pipeline structures:
underground (closed);
aboveground (open);
interior.
Gas pipe on the site, what are the restrictions?
The depth of the gas pipe on the site depends on the type of gas that will be transported through it
Closed method. This method of laying gas pipelines is the most common today. The depth of laying the pipe depends on the gas moisture content. If wet gas moves through the pipe, then it is laid below the freezing level of the soil. A pipe with dry gas is installed 80 cm below ground level. All necessary restrictions, including the distance to a residential building, are described in the relevant regulatory documentation(SNiP 42-01-2002). Using a closed method, you can install pipes made of steel or polyethylene.
Helpful information! Gas pipelines to summer cottages in most cases they are laid in an open way. This is due to the fact that this method is considered the most appropriate from an economic point of view.
Open method. As a rule, this method of laying gas transportation communications is used if it is impossible to install the system underground due to the presence of natural or artificial barriers. Such barriers include:
bodies of water;
ravines;
various buildings;
other communications.
For open installation, it is allowed to use only those pipes that have high strength. This description includes steel products, which are the main structural elements of such systems. The distance of an open steel gas pipeline to a residential building is not established.
Internal method. This method of laying gas pipeline systems implies their location indoors. In this case, the distance to the walls and to other objects inside the room is determined depending on the specific case. When laying gas pipelines internally, their installation inside walls is prohibited. For arrangement of internal gas structures pipes made of steel and copper are used.
Gas pipe on the site, what are the restrictions?
For open installation, only metal pipes are used.
Rules for gasification of a private house
First of all, before starting installation of a gas pipeline on a private plot, it is necessary to notify the local gas service. As a rule, the order of future work is determined together with the gas service. In addition, it is necessary to obtain permission to carry out future work from another inspection - automobile. Next, it is necessary to draw up a plan for gasification of the site. To do this, it is recommended to contact specialists, since self-composition plan may lead to an emergency.
If in your area there are already houses connected to the gas pipeline, then the work is simplified. In such a situation, all you need to do is connect to the main highway passing nearby. However, before connecting, it is definitely recommended to contact the gas service, which must provide you with the operating pressure parameters in main line. This data is necessary to select the material of the pipes from which the future structure will be installed.
All systems transporting gas to consumers are divided into two main types:
autonomous;
central.
Let's consider step by step the actions that need to be performed directly when laying a gas pipeline in a private house:
Lay a gas pipe from the distributor to the house. If necessary, the pipe is inserted into the main line.
A special cabinet must be installed at the point at which the gas pipe enters the house. Such a cabinet must be equipped with a device that reduces pressure (reducer).
At the next stage, in-house wiring is performed. To organize a gas pipeline inside the house, it is recommended to use pipes that can withstand low pressure.
Next, the installed system is checked for functionality. All necessary commissioning work is carried out.
Gas pipe on the site, what are the restrictions?
At the inlet of the pipes from the house, a special box is installed in which a pressure reducer is located, and a gas meter can also be installed in it.
Important! The new gas pipeline is checked in the presence of a gas service inspector.
SNiP restrictions when laying a gas pipeline
As mentioned above, SNiP 42-01-2002 describes all the necessary restrictions on the installation of gas pipeline structures. The distance between a residential building and communications is determined by the gas pressure: the higher this indicator in the pipe, the farther it must be located from the house.
Let's consider the main provisions that are described in SNiP:

Items prescribed by building codes and regulations must be complied with without fail, as they take into account fire safety and plumbing standards.
Gas pipeline security zone
The security zone of a gas pipeline communication is the space that is located between the pipe and two conventional lines located parallel to the sides of it. The distance from the axis of the pipeline to these lines can be different, since it depends on the pressure inside the communication.
Gas pipe on the site, what are the restrictions?
The security zone for areas with low pressure is at least 2 meters on each side of the pipe
Let's look at examples of security zones for various gas pipelines:
for communications that are laid in an open way, the security zone will be 2 m on each side of the pipe;
for lines that consist of polyethylene pipes with special copper wires marking the route, it is 3 m from the communication (on the wire side) and 2 m on the other side;
along gas transmission lines that are laid in permafrost soil conditions, the security zone is 10 m on each side of the communication. This indicator remains the same regardless of what material the track is made of;
for points that regulate gas in the pipeline, the conditional, closed line of the security zone is 10 m from their boundaries. For private gas control points, the security zone is not regulated;
the security zone for gas pipelines laid under water is 100 m;
for communications laid in forest belts and in areas with trees and shrubs, the security zone is 3 m (in the case of underground laying of the route). And for communications installed above the ground, the distance from the tree to the pipe must be no less than the height of this tree;
for private purposes, as a rule, pipes with a cross-sectional index of at least 80 mm are used. For such a pipeline, the security zone will be 2 m on each side.
Gas pipe on the site: what restrictions exist for the security zone?
Certain restrictions are imposed on the territory that is located within the security zone. Let's look at them:
The construction of various buildings is strictly prohibited;
if part of the bridge falls within the protected zone of the gas transmission communication, then its demolition or reconstruction work is prohibited without obtaining permission from the relevant authorities;
Important! The destruction of benchmarks and other signs located on communications is strictly prohibited.
The construction of landfills in the protected zone is prohibited;
It is prohibited to store toxic waste, acids, alkalis or other aggressive chemical compounds within the security zone;
It is forbidden to erect obstructing elements within the security zone (for example, fences);
In no case should a fire be lit in areas located within such a zone;
It is prohibited to cultivate the soil at a depth that exceeds 30 cm.
For gas pipeline structures that are in the process of being laid, approval of such zones is carried out in the presence of the owner of the site. For existing gas transmission lines, the presence of the owner of the land plot is not mandatory.

9.6. Dear Svetlana, Krasnodar!
Article 274 of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation The right to limited use of someone else’s land plot (easement)
Part 1. The owner of real estate (land plot, other real estate) has the right to demand from the owner of a neighboring land plot, and, if necessary, from the owner of another land plot (adjacent plot) to provide the right of limited use of the neighboring plot (easement).
An easement can be established to ensure passage and passage through a land plot, the laying and operation of power lines, communications and pipelines, provision of water supply and land reclamation, as well as other needs of the owner of real estate that cannot be provided without the establishment of an easement.

Based on the above:
- only after a (paid) easement has been established in court can this gas pipe be laid along your fence.

Good luck to you Vladimir Nikolaevich
Ufa 08/30/2019

9.7. Firstly, if the fence is yours and was built with your money, then your neighbor cannot fence off his gas without your consent, “Civil Code of the Russian Federation (Part One)” dated November 30, 1994 N 51-FZ (as amended on July 18, 2019)
Civil Code of the Russian Federation Article 209. Contents of property rights

1. The owner has the rights to own, use and dispose of his property. Secondly, this action contradicts the requirements of SNiP 42-01-2002 Federal Law "Technical Regulation" No. 184 of 2002, as well as Government Decree No. 858 - SP 62.13.3310.2011, since they are provided with a distance of 3 meters from the boundary. If he does it without your consent, you can force him through the court to take everything back.
Good luck!

9.8. Your fence is your property. Only you have the right to dispose of this property (Article 209 of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation).
And for the construction of the gas pipeline there is a land plot, which is determined by the construction organization.

9.9. To run a gas pipe through your fence, your neighbor must obtain permission from you; this is expressly stated in clause 7, paragraph e)
Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation dated December 30, 2013 N 1314 (as amended on February 21, 2019) “On approval of the Rules for connecting (technological connection) of capital construction projects to gas distribution networks
f) the consent of the main subscriber to connect (technological connection) to the gas distribution and (or) gas consumption networks of the main subscriber, as well as the construction of a gas pipeline on the land plot of the main subscriber, if the connection is made on a land plot, the owner of which is the main subscriber, in the cases provided for in paragraph 34 of these Rules

The issue of providing a neighbor with the technological ability to connect to a private home is decided by the gas distribution organization.

9.10. SNiP 42-01-2002 describes all the necessary restrictions on the installation of gas pipeline structures. The distance between a residential building and communications is determined by the gas pressure: the higher this indicator in the pipe, the farther it must be located from the house.

The main provisions that are described in SNiP:

The distance between the foundation of a residential building and the low-pressure gas transmission communication is 2 meters;
the distance between the foundation of a private house and the medium-pressure pipe is 4 meters;
high-pressure gas pipelines should be located at a distance of 7 meters from a residential building;
in accordance with SNiP, the distance of the pipeline that transports gas to the window or doorway must be at least 50 cm;
the distance from the pipe to the roof of the house should be at least 20 cm.
Items prescribed by building codes and regulations must be complied with without fail, as they take into account fire safety and plumbing standards.

9.11. I would not coordinate the installation of a pipe along the fence, even if leads through his area, he needs a pipe. There is a gas pipeline security zone there, nothing can be built, etc.

The standards for protective zones are regulated by SP SP 62.13330.2011* (former SNiP 42-01-2002) in force in all regions of the Russian Federation. Gas pipeline routes and other gas distribution network facilities must be operated in conditions of strict safety, excluding the possibility of damage, and prevent third parties from accessing the location of the gas pipeline, shut-off valves and gas equipment. Even minor damage to the insulation of steel pipes provokes corrosion of the metal and can lead to...

10. Please, is it a violation that my drainage pit, outbuildings, is wooden? outdoor toilet, is located at a distance from the low pressure gas pipe. Thanks in advance.

10.1. The distance was not specified. But - it is not a violation in any case if it was legally installed before the gas pipeline was laid.

11. Are there any standards for the distance from the gas pipe to the fence, so that you can apply for easement with the gas company.

11.1. The gas pipe does not pass through the territory of your land plot, so it is impossible to establish an easement here because the gas company does not use your land. plot.

12. The gas pipe runs along the edge of a private plot, at a distance of 1 m from the boundary. Tell me, can a corrugated sheet + brick fence be installed on this boundary? Or what should the indent be?
And on the other hand, how much should you retreat when planting trees and shrubs?

12.1. Depends on which gas pipeline runs underground. Most likely the security zone will be 5 meters from the axis in each direction.
