Full Description

This paper discusses the evaluation of prestressed concrete pipelines to locate corroding or damaged sections to prevent failures and allow for orderly repair or replacement. Essential requirements for investigation include a thorough knowledge of the materials and methods used in the construction of the pipe as well as the installation environment. Piping characteristics; common defects that occur during manufacture and installation; and modes of deterioration, particularly corrosion, are described.
