Les eaux véhiculées dans les réseaux peuvent présenter des caractéristiques physico-chimiques très différentes [...] Nous pouvons considérer deux catégories selon la nature des canalisations [...] - les eaux corrosives pouvant attaquer le métal non revêtu [...] À l'intérieur de ces eaux corrosives, nous pouvons distinguer les eaux qui sont incrustantes ou agressives. Les eaux incrustantes sont des eaux très minéralisées qui laissent un dépôt de calcium et de carbonate provoquant l'entartrage des conduites. Les eaux agressives sont peu minéralisées; elles sont plus corrosives que les eaux incrustantes car elles ne favorisent pas la formation de dépôt protecteur. Une eau corrosive est caractérisée par la production de l'hydroxyde ferreux, puis ferrique. Cela entraîne la formation de nodules, voire de tubercules pouvant à terme diminuer la section. Ce phénomène se rencontre dans les anciennes conduites sans cimentation intérieure [...] - les eaux agressives envers les matériaux à base de ciment. Une eau agressive se définit comme ayant les propriétés d'attaquer les matériaux renfermant du calcium. Selon la minéralisation, le pH et la température de l'eau véhiculée, trois cas peuvent se présenter : une eau à l'équilibre calco-carbonique n'entraîne à une température donnée, ni attaque, ni précipitation de carbonate de calcium; une eau incrustante (ou entartrante) a tendance à déposer des sels de calcium (carbonate) sur la paroi intérieure des canalisations; une eau agressive peut attaquer certains éléments constitutifs du mortier de ciment comportant du calcium (silicates ou silico-aluminates de calcium). 3, record 5, French, - eau%20corrosive

There are three principal types of augers used for well drilling : bucket augers, solid-stem augers, and hollow-stem augers.... Solid-stem augers consist of spiral flanges welded to a pipe. One length of pipe(or auger section) is called a flight; multiple auger sections are often referred to as continuous flighting. The leading auger flight has a special bit or cutter head attached that cuts a hole for the flights to follow. Flights are added as the hole is drilled deeper. Cuttings from the drilling process are brought to the surface by the action of the augers.... Hollow-stem augers are similar to solid-stem augers in design, except that drill rods can pass through the auger sections.... Because the flights are hollow, they can be used as temporary casing to hold the hole open while the permanent casing is installed. Wells drilled with hollow-stem augers have been used to construct water supply wells, but they are more often used to construct monitoring wells. 3, record 7, English, - hollow%20stem%20auger

Suction dredges, available in many sizes, are the most widely used type of dredge. They move soil by suction and pumping through pipes ... The type of material to be excavated determines whether a cutter head will be required on the end of the suction line.

The best means of cutting pipe is with the use of a snap type cutter which has sharp hardened cutting wheels. In the past plumbers used a cold chisel and hammer, but due to technological change in the manufacture of the pipe, the iron has become more difficult to cut by this means. The snap type cutter is fast and accurate, but it is important that the cutters be maintained in good condition. 1, record 14, English, - snap%20type%20cutter

La meilleure façon de couper un tuyau consiste en l'utilisation d'un coupe-tuyau à chaîne à molette affûtée et trempée. Par le passé, les plombiers utilisaient un ciseau à froid et un marteau, mais étant donné les changements technologiques dans la fabrication des tuyaux, il est devenu beaucoup plus difficile de couper la fonte par ce moyen. Le coupe-tuyau à chaîne est rapide et précis, mais il est très important de maintenir les molettes en bon état. 1, record 14, French, - coupe%2Dtuyau%20%C3%A0%20rupture%20instantan%C3%A9e
