Effect of the location of broken wire wraps on the failure pressure of prestressed concrete cylinder pipes by Abi Shdid, Caesar

“…Two classes of 2.44 m embedded cylinder pipe (ECP) were modelled with 5, 35, 70, and 100 wire wrap breaks. The results show that broken wire wraps at the joint, and especially the spigot joint, decrease the overall strength of PCCP more so than those at the bell joint or in the barrel of the pipe. …”
