Abstract

An informal inquiry of 24 cities about local water system standards resulted in a mini‐survey of criteria used for engineering and planning purposes. Areas covered were standards for sizes and types of pipes used, spacing of pipeline grids, calculations of water use for residences, velocity and pressure of distributed water, costs for pipe laid, head‐loss standards, fire flow standards, and storage requirements. The exchange of such information indicated a need for a nationwide data base for water utility planning and engineering purposes.
