Abstract: The components affecting the total cost of conslructingadistribution piping network are: - pipe material cost - fitting and appurtenance cost - installation and labour cost - reinstatement cost The relative contribution of each component to the total cost of construction can be controlled by alternatives in design criteria. In combination with engineering judgement. the effective selection of design variables pertaining to design pressure, pipe material. installation technique, location and system layout can have a significant impact on reducing construction costs. Safety, reliability, operating and mainteance considerations must also be evaluated in the process of design selection as they are important fas in the cost of owning the system. This presentation attempts to identify the alternatives in design criteria that affect the construction cost efficiency and reliability of a distribution system.
