2022, A Novel System for Assuring the Performance of Steel Water Pipelines in Ground Settlement Areas

Differential settlements due to soil conditions may introduce significant deformation in a pipeline due to bending and axial elongation, leading to loss of containment in gasketed or other systems. This paper describes the application of a novel concept in settlement areas: the patent-pending InfraShield® Seismic Resilient Joint System, designed to absorb ground-induced deformations, preventing water leakages and safeguarding overall pipeline integrity.
