Concrete-Lined Pipe
Concrete-Lined Pipe
(OP)
We have a project in a water plant. There is existing piping with cement-moartar lined steel or ductile iron pipe. We have not found piping specs for the existing plant. The pipe is large-diameter, short pieces with lots of branches and fittings. 1.) Would you recommend that we continue with the same pipe? 2.) What other system woulld be appropriate to consider? 3.) Can this be fabricated and lined on site? 4.) How can we build piping specs for this new pipe?

Cement mortar lined pipe is for corrosion/contamination protection. It is supplied so lined, I have not known it to be lined on site. There are two grades here, oprdinary portland cement lined, and sulphate resisting cement lined.
We have British Standards for the cement mortar lined pipe:
BS 4772 covers lining thickness,
It's not civil engineers who design most water treatment plant nowadays...
