Description:
An indispensable reference for water distribution systems designers, managers, contractors, and operators, M41 Ductile-Iron Pipe and Fittings provides readers with both technical
and general information to aid in the design, specification, procurement, installation, and understanding of ductile-iron pipe and fittings. M41 is intended for use by utilities and municipalities of all sizes, whether as a reference book or textbook for those not fully familiar with ductile-iron pipe and fitting products. Design engineers and consultants may use this manual in preparing plans and specifications for new ductile-iron pipe projects. New in this fourth edition are modifications to pipe and pipe joint design considerations, significant revisions to discussion on external corrosion protection, and a new chapter on seismic design guidelines.
