Abstract

A premature crack and pipe bending are two of the major signals indicating future failures of a PVC water main. Identifying these defectives when they are young can prevent the break consequence. A new PVC pipe concept that can diagnose its prem-ature crack based on changes in pressure strain characteristics has been introduced. However, the bending influence has yet to be fully explored in this pipe concept. Therefore, this research investigates the full impacts of both bending and a premature crack on the pressure strain characteristic. The result reveals different patterns of pressure strain characteristic deviation between bending and a premature crack. It can help future research to design a method to detect and discriminate these pipe defectives
