Abstract

This paper deals with the effects of corrosion on the 30 in. diameter locking-bar steel conduit supplying water to the eastern goldfields of Western Australia, and the reasons for adopting the continuous welded type of construction are discussed. Design of continuous sections, method of construction, failures and troubles experienced during the experimental stage, together with welding processes and costs have also been included in the paper.
