Experts Say Concrete
Pipe Not a Success
WASHINGTON, Dec. 1 Poor con
structlon has brought concrete piping
into disfavor, bilt when properly
made such piping Is undoubtedly a
success, say irrigation engineers ot
the Bureau 'of Public roada. United
States Department of Agriculture. It
was at first thought that concrete
could be used for low pressures only,
but better methods of construction
have convinced the engineers thai
Its use Is not limited In this regard
In this country, concrete piping is
now to withstand 100-foot head pres
sures, and in Europe, lines have been
built which endure pressure heads of
several hundred feet. Steel reinforce
ment Is generally used when the
heads exceed 15 or 20 feet.
Department Bulletin 852, prepared
by the Bureau of Public Roads, on the
adaption and use of concrete piping,
points out that the carrying capacity
lessens very little over a period of
years. After 13 years' service, such a
pipe showed a deposit only one-six
teenth of an Inch thick on the inner
surface. Another advantage posses
sed by this material is that the pipe
can be constructed on the ground
where it is to be laid, thus slmplying
transpoirtatlon difficulties which
might occur if the heavy pipes sec
tions had to be carried to the site of
