VePOn18 - Renewalplanning of Waterdistribution Pipes in Northern Burgenland 2018

In this project the follwoing research and analysis is done. First a GIS based analysis of the condition of drinking water supply pipes is conducted. Followed by an analysis of damage and renewal costs depending on different boundary conditions (position of pipe, diameter, ..). A validation of existing aging functions of various pipetypes based on investigations in 2010 and revision of the calibration of these functions if necessary is done next. Central task is the determination of renewal requirements per pipetype as well as risk-oriented determination of renewal priorities per local area network - followed by a scenario analysis (= impact of different strategies on selected performance indicators)
