Water supply pipes come in various materials and sizes to distribute water in buildings, homes, and factories. The document outlines the main types of water supply pipes as metallic (steel, galvanized iron, cast iron), cement (concrete, asbestos), and plastic (polyethylene, PVC). It also mentions how sewerage connects to city sewerage pipes and lists efforts to prevent environmental harm such as tree planting, using eco-friendly materials, solar power, and conserving resources.

1. Water supply pipes
Water supply pipes are critical components of civic and
industrial water distribution systems, which keep buildings
and homes functioning, and factories in business.
Identification
Water supply pipes are circular in design, and
come in varying lengths, materials and
diametric sizes to suit specific applications

2. Types of Water Supply Pipes
Earlier, only limited types of water supply pipes were
available, but today, there is a wide range of such pipes, each
constructed of materials designed/recommended for different
residential and commercial applications. Water supply pipes can
be divided into three main categories: metallic pipes, cement
pipes and plastic pipes..

3. Metallic pipes :-
• Steel pipes,
• Galvanized Iron (GI) pipes
• Cast Iron (CI) pipes
Cement pipes :-
• Concrete cement (CC) pipes.
• Asbestos cement (AC) pipes.
•Plastic pipes :- (low-density pipes)
•Polythene pipes, and
•un-plasticized
•Poly Vinyl Chloride (PVC) pipes
