diverse areas and of varying ages were analyzed for signs of corrosive
water attack and loss of stru ctu ral In teg rity , All but 3 of the samples
tested for crush strength exceeded the requirements fo r new pipe.
Corrosion penetration was minimal or absent in most cases, p a rticu larly
for pipe conveying low to moderately aggressive water, The long
term performance of factory applied coatings was found to be excellent,
iron based inorganic coatings, apparently from the corrosion of m etallic
system components, were deposited in s itu on some of the pipe sanples
but the protection thereby provided against aggressive attack was
indeterminant. Data from other Industry and EPA studies show th a t metal
s a lt based corrosion Inhibitors added "to the water can, under c ertain
conditions, retard aggressive water attack on A/C pipe provided the Inhibitor is added properly and continuously to the water stream.

Introduction and Background
A sbestos cement (A/C) pipe was f i r s t manufactured In Europe
a t the turn of the century by hand rolling fla t asbestos-cement sheet stock Into a cylinder while s t i l l wet. However, the resulting
product had l i t t l e strength. In the early 1900's an Ita lia n , Mam developed a process for rolling &continuous film of asbestos-cement
on a removable cylinder (mandrel) and the modern A/C pipe industry was born.

Three types of hydrostatic te s ts are used on A/C pipe The
f i r s t , "proof" testing checks the burst resistance o f each pipe up
I
to 3.5 times I ts rated pressure. In addition, a te s t to 4 times
rated pressure is conducted on one pipe o f each lo t, usually one out
o f 300 pieces. For research purposes, samples of the pipe nay be
tested to burst to determine ultimate strength. The la tte r te s t was used to develop the burst data presented la te r herein.
The hydrostatic and flexure tests are conducted on a ll A/C pipe to 200 mm (3 in) in diameter, with la rg e r sizes subjected to hydrostatic testin g only. In the flexure t e s t , the pipe 1s subjected
to a point load applied a t the center with the ends supported on rigid blocks. This te s t verifies the resistance of the pipe to bending
loads. Crush and free lime tests are conducted on each pipe lo t.
D eta ile d t e s t procedures fo r A/C p ipe are s e t fo rth by two n a tio n a lly recognized standards se ttin g organizations:

For purposes of the work reported herein, crush, flexure, and hydrostatic tests were used to evaluate the pipe samples. Tests were run on
305 mm (12 in ) long pipe samples to compare structural in te g rity to standard specifications. Figure 2 shows a photograph o f the standard 3 edge crushing te s t; Figure 3 depicts the hydrostatic te s t equipment.

As p art of an overall evaluation of te s t procedures, more
than 7500 pieces of Class ISO A/C pipe, ranging 1n diameter from
s
100-600 sw (4-24 in) were tested,4 the results are plotted on the
frequency distribution plot shown in Figure 4. the le f t hand scale
and dashed line drawing provide the results of a 1965 study of
412 samples, a ll Class ISO, the right hand scale and so lid line
drawing provides the results of an e a rlie r study of 7100 samples,
the results ard'expressed in terms of the generalized modulus of
rupture (HR) which can be related to the crush loading for a 305 m
(12 in) long sample as follows.1 5

These data for new pipe provide a basis for understanding the variation in crush and hydrotest data shown by the samples from the field surveys discussed below. A/C pipe is designed and manufactured so that a ll pieces will meet or exceed standard strength requirements. As a re s u lt, most pipe lengths are substantially stronger than standards require. Nevertheless, substantial variation in test resu lts even on the same Class and size of pipe can be expected,
A ggressive Hater Index
The Aggressive Index (AI) in AWWA C300-80 as given is one of several indices used to characterize the corrosive tendencies of potable water and was used to characterize the waters in this te s t program discussed below. I t is not a direct measure of corrosivity, ra th e r, the AI indicates the calcium carbonate (CaCOg) s ta b ility of the water, 1 .e . whether o r not CaC03 is deposited on the pipe walls creating a surface coating which protects against corrosion. The AI is calculated from the following formulaj
AI * pH + lo g (AH)
where:
AI - A g g ressiv e index
pH - power o f H+ , standard pH u n its
A - Total a lk a lin it y , mg/1 as CaC03
H - Calcium h ard ness, mg/1 as CaC03
The deposition of a CaCO'j coating 1s dependent on pH, a lk a lin ity , hardness (calcium + magnesium concentration), to tal dissolved solids (TD5) and water temprature, Given a ll these variables, the AI does not always correctly predict corrosivity, for example, low a lk a lin ity waters are generally corrosive even though the AI might Indicate otherwise, because the low concentration of CaCOj prevents the formation of a protective coating. A corrosion expression which reflec ts these conditions in predicting corrosive attack on A/C pipe 1s presented in Reference 8 .
A/C Pipe F ie ld Study
As part of ongoing q uality assurance programs, a fie ld study _ on 45 fie ld in stallatio n s o f A/C water distribution pipe was conducted.' Emphasis was on older in sta lla tio n s in geographically diverse areas handling waters ranging from non-aggressive to highly aggressive. Field technicians obtained and v erified the history of A/C pipe samples provided by cooperating water u t i l i t i e s and testing was carried out
------
in the laboratory on 305 irm (12 in)" long samples per the te st methods previously discussed. In addition, a depth o f penetration study was performed on a coupon from each sanple by scraping
away any soft material from the Inside surface and measuring the
remaining wall thickness with a micrometer. .
A summary o f the overall field survey results are shown in Table 2. Of the 25 samples th at could be crush te ste d , only three,
Nos, 1?, 33 and 41 failed to exceed the requirements of AWWA 400*80.
!
The remaining 20 samples could not be tested because of inadequate
sample strength or damage. Two samples were hydrotestad. No. 40 and 42.
Both tested over 6205 kPa (900 p si) exceeding the AWWA400-80
specification of 440 kPa (32 psi) by nearly 501.
As shown in Table 3 the degree of in te rio r corrosion 1s
t
apparently a function o f the aggressivity of the water and is
!
essentially independent of service l if e . A tabulation of the samples
exposed to the most aggressive waters, shown in Table 4, reveals th at
'
only one of the samples, No. 33' failed to meet AWWA crush te s t standards.
This sample was not the most severely attacked o f the group and i t s low
crush strength was probably not indicative of the general condition
of the system from which i t was taken. The data also show th a t thin
'
protective coatings of the asphaltic type are apparently quite effectiv e.
i
Table 5 l is t s 't h e coated samples, only one o f which showed any evidence
of even slig h t corrosion. Tftis particular sample was of an older
type of pipe, d iffering markedly in composition and curing process
than the other samples. I t was also observed in some of the samples
-
that upstream corrosion of m etallic pipe' components caused the deposition of an iron based reddish coating on the A/C pipe. This did
st>:
not seem to confer any additional corrosion resistance to the pipe, as
examination of Table 2 will show.
In e a rlie r work, two fuTl length samples of 20.3 cm (8 in) diameter Class 150 pipe were removed from the Cleveland, Ohio water system and tested fo r flexure, crush and hydraulic strength, The pipe had been in service* for 28 years handling water of an average
aggressive index of 11,2. The results of the analysis are shown in Table 6, All te s ts were run by an independent laboratory in accordance with AWWA Standard te s t procedures.
Finished Water Additives
Substantial research into the use of m etallic ion based water additives for corrosion protection of A/C pipe has also been carried out. Extensive work by Buelow, et al_, of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency found th at zinc chloride T^n Cl2 ) added to aggressive waters would protect A/C pipe from corrosion, as long as addition to the finished water was continuous and pH was 8.2 or higher. 10 In 1978, the
* A few samples were less than 305 mm (12 1n) long; data was extrapolated in these cases.

A/C pipe manufacturing Industry through the Association of Asbestos Cement Pipe Producers (AACPP) set up a Task force on Aggressive Waters to carry out cooperative research on A/C pipe corrosion,
A number of aggressive water research projects have been carried out on in s itu pipe protection using water stream additives. One study
verified the results of the EPA study and went on to show th at the
protective effect of ZnCtg additive was predicated on continued addition to the water stream. 11 Other research Indicated some protection against corrosion from ferric chloride additives, again requiring continuous addition to maintain protection.12 Companion work to the A/C pipe field study supported indications th at ZnClg additives could reduce corrosive attack on A/C pipe, but the degree of protection conferred by a 05 - 1.0 tng/1 ZnCla concentration was indeterminant. 13
vi
Based on th is extensive work, plus other studies and fie ld
experience, neutralization of aggressive waters by pH adjustment
and/or lime (calcium carbonate) addition is the preferred approach.
This process is well established in drinking water treatment technology
and, most importantly, i t can protect a ll components of the d istrib u tio n
system, m etallic and non-metal11c a lik e , from in terio r corrosion.
