Mostly screw and socket joints are used for G.I. pipes.
4. COPPER PIPES
These pipes are used in
hot water installation.
They have high tensile
strength and can
therefore have thin walls
temperatures upto
1200 (used to
carry hot water)
For pipes used in soil and
waste water discharge
systems, the thickness of
the wall will be larger
than that of used for roof
drainage.
Rigid PVC pipes are used
for distribution of water
with temperature below
450C.
At higher temperature,
the strength of the pipes
decreases. Similarly
ultraviolet radiation from
sunlight as well as
frequent changes in
temperature reduces the
life of PVC pipes.
These pipes are costlier
than AC pipes but
cheaper than GI pipes.
7. CONCRETE PIPES
Unreinforced pipes of
small diameters as well
as reinforced and
prestressed concrete
pipes of large diameters
are available for water
supply and other uses.
