Description
A combination of old pipes and earlier than expected failure of newer pipes has led to a “perfect storm” in our pipe infrastructures. Estimates of pipeline replacement nationwide exceed $1 billion in the next decade. This course covers the history of pipes, expected lifespans and considerations for line replacement or rehabilitation. The class also discusses ways you can make sure your engineers and contractors are correctly installing new pipes or performing rehabilitation.
