Abstract

A method for producing a multilayered large pipe out of an outer pipe which forms a supporting layer, and at least one inner pipe, which forms a lining layer and is bent from a lining sheet and welded along a longitudinal seam or is seamless, including the following sequence of method steps: preparing a wavy inner pipe which is bent from the lining sheet with a continuously rounded wavy contour extending transverse to a longitudinal axis of the large pipe and with wave troughs and wave crests extending continuously over a length of the wavy inner pipe where the maximum outer diameter of the wavy inner pipe is smaller than the inner diameter of the outer pipe; inserting the wavy inner pipe into the outer pipe; and expanding the wavy inner pipe by an expansion force acting in a radially outward direction until it assumes an almost round form and, after removal of the expansion force, is clamped in a nonpositive way in the outer pipe, and subsequent relaxation.
