square feet per linear foot of pipe

With the current infrastructure showing signs of age, creative solutions are needed for repairing and restoring pipe networks. One of the most successful ideas to arise is the integration of the square feet per linear foot of pipe concept.

When assessing the size of a pipe, the go-to measurement is usually its diameter. However, this metric can be unreliable when it comes to the actual capacity of the pipe since it can shift with the manufacturing process or the type of material used. Consequently, determining a pipe’s size by its diameter may not always be an appropriate measure.

To get a more comprehensive picture of the size of a pipe, it is recommended to look at its square footage per linear foot. This metric takes into account the full scope of the pipe’s cross-sectional area, rather than just its diameter.

For projects involving particularly high levels of stress, such as an underground utility system, corrugated pipe can prove to be a helpful solution. These pipes come with the added benefit of additional strength and durability that comes from their corrugation, which is why the square footage per linear foot of this solution can be incredibly useful to measure.

The square footage per linear foot of pipe can be an essential measurement when it comes to dealing with pipes that require high pressure due to their thick walls. The sturdier the walls of the pipe, the stronger its resistance to pressure is.

When sizing a pipe, it’s better to measure its square footage per linear foot than by relying on the traditional diameter measurement. This comprehensive approach gets at the whole picture, accounting not only for the cross-sectional area of the pipe, but also for the pipe wall thickness. Thanks to this more comprehensive gauge, it’s plainly evident that the square footage per linear foot measurement gives a superior estimation of capacity and strength.
