Industrial and domestic piping is increasingly made from various plastics and composites, and these materials withstand heavy use over long periods. They are, however, affected by environmental and other factors over time and can degrade, causing major problems within piping systems. Farshad's book deals with why plastic pipes and systems fail, and with how to investigate and diagnose such failures. Pipes may buckle, fracture, change in dimensions and colour, blister and delaminate, corrode through stress, be abraded and obstructed: all these cause problems and lead to loss of efficient operation of a system. The author's experience is backed up by a large data-base of results Wide target audience Only book covering the entire subject Unique approach based on long experience

Published by the Plastics Pipe Institute (PPI), the Handbook describes how polyethylene piping systems continue to provide utilities with a cost-effective solution to rehabilitate the underground infrastructure. The book will assist in designing and installing PE piping systems that can protect utilities and other end users from corrosion, earthquake damage and water loss due to leaky and corroded pipes and joints.

Plastic piping is now the preferred material in countless applications -- municipal water and sewer lines, drain/waste/vent lines, and chemical waste drainage, to mention just a few -- because plastics are durable, easy and safe to install, environmentally sound, and cost-effective. This book compiles 47 of the author's articles into a convenient, one-source document that is divided into three sections: Section 0ne, General Plastics, addresses the present, past, and future of plastics in general. Section two, General Plastic Piping, concentrates on plastic piping areas such as applications, joining methods, and the environment. The final section, Plastic Piping Materials and Products, focuses on particular fluid handling product groups such as valves, pipes, fittings and fabrications as well as product-specific piping material systems.
