New Steel Twin Mains for Severn Ham, Tewkesbury
Posted on Jun 10, 2021FT Pipeline Systems has supplied steel pipe and fittings for a scheme in Tewkesbury to replace 2 x 900mm diameter twin mains pipes.
The pipework supplied consisted of 208 x 13m lengths of 914 x 9.1mm and 13 x 13m lengths of 813 x 9.5mm ejoint/socket water pipes with Eurokote 468 Thixo lining and 3LPE coating.
A number of the lengths were then taken to our UK fabrication partner, Lortub, for precision adjustment of lengths and PN25 flanged connections on one end to tie in with the valve chambers.
Additionally, Lortub – who also produced the working drawings from client provided .dwg files – produced the connection fittings so as to tie in at eight locations on the route.
Tight scheduling of the delivery for each section in phase 1 was dictated by the site works program, with the fitting fabrication and subsequent delivery timed to fit with the contractor.
