Investigation on Probabilistic Model for Corrosion Failure Level of Buried Pipelines in Kirtipur Urban Areas (Nepal)

Potable water supplies mostly through buried galvanized steel and cast-iron pipes from distribution terminals to the public, and a lot of corrosion failures occurred each year in urban cities of Nepal. It is an urgent need to know the main responsible factors for such buried metallic pipeline failures and subsequently evaluate the level of corrosion risk in soils of presently studied Kirtipur urban areas. Six factors (i.e., pH, moisture,...
