Statistical Analysis of Domestic Web News Reported Burst Events on Municipal Water Distribution System in 2011

Abstract:

In order to find out rules and trends of pipe burst, the relevant data of the 2011 domestic web news reported burst events were collected and collated. The statistical analysis results showed that, burst mainly occurred in the southern coastal cities. Summer and winter were the main seasons for burst, especially in January, burst became worse. 5:00-17:00 was a dangerous phase during a whole day. The trunk road intersection or crossings, and the construction site were more likely to become the incident locations. Improper construction and aging were the main reasons for burst. The diameter of burst were concentrated in DN300-DN600, DN800 and DN1000. Cast iron pipe was more likely to burst. The probability of burst might increase when pipe age became 20-30 or 30-40 years. The burst was repaired in time.
