The damage caused to pipe networks by natural disasters can be widespread and extensive. It can range from minor breaks to complete loss of whole sections of the system. A full systematic survey of the entire network is the only way of identifying the true extent of the damage. This may not be possible in an emergency where it is a priority to re-instate a basic level of supply.
This techical notes examines these priorities and the process of rehabilitating small-scale piped water distribution systems.
Contents:
