How to Pressure Test Pipes
Accepting a pipeline involves more than checking dimensions and material type. The integrity of assembled sections and joints must be verified before the network is put into service, and test results must be recorded in accordance with the project’s approved specifications so engineers, contractors, and quality personnel can assess the line and decide whether to […]
Steel Pipe Size Chart
Reviewing a project’s pipe requirements begins with the size specified in the drawings and bill of quantities, then checking that size against the outside diameter, wall thickness, and required standard. This becomes especially important when site and procurement teams work with multiple diameters or pipe schedules within the same project. A steel pipe size chart […]
Types of Steel Pipes and Their Main Uses in Industrial Projects
Identifying the requirements of any industrial project starts with reviewing the pipes needed and their specifications. Nominal size alone is not enough to order the right product: the manufacturing method, wall thickness, steel grade, finish, and connection method are all part of the information engineers and procurement teams rely on when checking a bill of […]

The decision involves other factors, including water characteristics, temperature, installation location, and pipe joining methods. The right pipe for a buried distribution main may differ from the one needed for a building’s water supply or a pump connection inside a […]
