Analysis of failures in water supply networks in the Samara region in relation to the material and service life of pipes
Summary
The statistical data analysis on failures in water supply networks in the Samara region for a specific period, based on pipe material, diameter, and service life is presented. The relationship between the failure rate and pipe material is determined, and the effect of the pipe service life on the probability of failures is studied. The data on the high degree of the Samara water supply network wear, broken down by the municipal districts, is presented. The failure rate for the network is calculated as the ratio of the number of failures to the length of the network. It is shown that sections of the water supply network with a long service life need priority repair or replacement to reduce failures.

Analysis and assessment of water distribution network failures in Samara
Summary
The main task of the water distribution network maintenance and operation service is improving the quality and reliability of supplying water to the customers. The analysis of the water distribution network state in the urban district of Samara showed that the majority of the pipelines had been significantly depreciated. This is caused by fact that they were laid and put into operation during the period of large-scale housing construction (1960–1980-ies) without due account of the requirements to the durability of the materials applied and technical and organizational capacity of the operating companies. According to the statistics lately the rate of failures in the water distribution networks has been gradually but sustainably reducing. The assessment of the data on the operation and maintenance of the water distribution networks showed 22% reduction of the total number of failures in 2015 compared to 2013; accordingly water losses also decreased. Achieving these results was possible due to the timely repair and maintenance works in 2013–2015.

The use of pipes made of various materials for the construction of sewer networks
Summary
The results of the analysis of data on sewer networks in settlements of Russia as of 2014–2019 are presented. All settlements are divided into six groups depending on the number of inhabitants. For each group, the distribution of sewer networks is established depending on the material of the pipes. Сeramic and cast iron pipes have been most widely used over the past 100 years. Schedules for commissioning sewer networks made of various materials over the years have been developed. Over the past 20 years plastic pipes have gained widespread use accounting for about 50% of newly constructed sewer networks. Information was collected on the commissioning dates of individual sections of sewer networks. The largest number of the operating sewer networks was built between 1970 and 1979. In general, the standard service life for 55% of networks was exceeded in all settlements. In the coming years, a significant increase is expected in the share of plastic pipes in the total length of sewer networks.

Methods ofimproving the reliability of water distribution network operation
Summary
The conditions of providing for the integrity of the water distribution network for maximum possible period are considered. On basis of analyzing the mathematical expression developed with the use of mass service system device the conditions of ensuring water distribution network integrity are determined. It is established from the experience of water distribution network operation that pipe material and repair time are critical for reliability improvement. Ductile iron pipes with interior cement-sand coating and PVC pipes as better meet this requirement.
