Learn how to effectively access and evaluate aging, buried water pipelines

This practical guide provides a framework on how to evaluate and estimate deterioration levels and conditions of aging buried water pipelines. Drawing from the latest research, it establishes guidelines and techniques to identify, assess, and evaluate the status of pipeline assets for cost-effective rehabilitation. Readers will get detailed methods and techniques from standards developed by ISO, AWWA, ASME, ASTM and other international research organizations.

Authored by a team of recognized experts in the field, Renewal Assessment of Deteriorated Water Pipelines covers the renewal and failure prevention of deteriorated buried pipelines for water utilities around the world. Readers will discover how to manage pipeline assets of all sizes proactively. The book features clear explanations of failure prediction and prevention and pipe renewal and provides the most up-to-date information and methodologies to address aging pipeline issues.

Coverage includes:

- Pipe data and history
- Deterioration Mechanisms
- Loads on pipes
- Failure modes and mechanisms
- Condition assessment techniques for buried water pipelines
- Methods of Failure Analysis – deterministic methods
- Methods of Failure Analysis – Probabilistic methods
- Methods of Failure Analysis – Data-driven methods
