Abstract

Various methods of corrosion assessment on drinking water distribution pipelines have been reviewed in this paper. Five methods of corrosion assessment consisting of sampling method, scanning method, ultrasonic testing method, electromagnetic inspection method and corrosion index assessments described provide valuable information regarding their implementation mechanisms. Since each method has its advantages and limitations, the application of methods on the pipeline must consider the environmental conditions of the pipeline to be inspected, as well as the equipment and resources available. © 2018 The Authors.
