Scope

This document specifies the evaluation method of life cycle analysis of ductile iron pipes used for water applications as specified in ISO 2531 and ISO 16631.

Purpose

Studies on economic and environmental impacts are important for utility decision-makers as they seek to balance budget concerns over immediate and long-term needs across acquisition, operation and maintenance, and planned end of life. For authorities and engineers designing pipeline systems, the environmental life cycle assessment serves as a tool to study various scenarios to determine the right solution for site-specific conditions and community values, as well as provide the necessary data to support those decisions.
