Pipeline Safety, Reliability, and Rehabilitation

Proceedings of ASCE Pipelines Division Technical Sessions at the 1999 American Public Works Association International Public Works Congress and Exposition, held in Denver, Colorado, September 19-22, 1999. Sponsored by the Pipeline Division of ASCE.

This collection contains 28 papers discussing state-of-the art approaches to pipeline design and construction that result in high quality, reliable, safe, and durable pipelines. Topics include:

• evaluation and rehabilitation of old pipeline systems using new engineering design procedures and new construction technologies;
• safety of the public and workers who are involved in the construction of pipelines;
• use of new and existing technologies to construct new facilities with minimal disruption to existing infrastructure and societal activities; and
• increased dependability and longer service lives.
