The burst main was replaced with a 316L stainless steel section that was inserted down the existing cast iron main.
PME undertook hand calculation verification of hoop stress and FEA simulations to determine whether the section was fit for purpose.
The calculations enabled PMP to be confident that the sections were suffice to cope with the local water pressure variations.
