Babe Ruth Drank Water from that Pipe? Upgrading a Century-Old Infrastructure in an Urban Environment
Design of rehabilitation and replacement of 10 mi of water distribution mains in an urban environment can be challenging. The water mains replaced for this project are part of the City of Baltimore's holistic approach to proactively update its century-old water distribution system. The City's critical distribution system includes more than a thousand miles of pipe that have reached or surpassed their useful life; many of which have failed in recent years resulting in major disruptions to the City's customers. Pipes slated to be replaced were installed in the late 1890s and early 1900s, with the majority installed prior to the 1930s. The mains are composed of varying materials, including both pit-cast and spun-cast DIP. This paper focuses on unique challenges associated with the evaluation and design of water mains in an urban environment that have been in service for more than a century.
