Performance of Prestressed Concrete Pipe

Studies performance of prestressed concrete pipe widely used to convey water for municipal, industrial, and agricultural use. Examines causes of structural deterioration; effects of pipe design, manufacturing, placement, and protection; and reliable techniques for condition assessment, repair, and rehabilitation of existing pipelines.
