This AWWA committee report provides a review of wide experience and design theory in the use of steel pipe for conveying water. The data apply to mild, intermediate, or structural‐grade steel, such as is covered in AWWA standards for steel water pipe. The data apply to operation at ordinary atmospheric temperature, which is usual in water works installations, and not to high‐temperature operation. Topics covered include: Ductility and Yield Strength; Stress and Strain; Strain in Design; Analysis Based on Strain; and, Good Practice.
