Differences in Cement Linings for Ductile Iron Pipes EN197-1
Ductile iron pipes are widely used in water pipelines due to their high strength, toughness, and excellent durability. To prevent internal corrosion and ensure water quality, they are typically lined with cement mortar (CML). The type of cement used in these linings is crucial, depending on the a...Read more -
EN196-1 Determination of Compressive Strength of Cement
The cement-mortar linings for ductile iron pipes is primarily used to prevent corrosion and scaling on the inner wall of the pipe, ensure water quality, and reduce hydraulic friction losses. However, the core European standard EN196-1 specifies the method for determining the strength of cement mo...Read more -
