Improvement of the Carrying Capacity of Cast Iron Pipes Due to the Coating Lapping Process
Publication: Journal of Pipeline Systems Engineering and Practice
Volume 13, Issue 3
Abstract
This paper presents the results of the tests executed at the Water Engineering Laboratory (WEL) of the University of Perugia for evaluating the performance of cast iron pipes with the cement mortar coating refined by a lapping process. The implications of the achievement of smooth pipe behavior with regard to the carrying capacity of new pipes are discussed.
