Did you know that accommodating seismic movement in a building can be done using grooved technology? Here's how and why you should consider using it.
The traditional approach to piping in seismic zones is to use rigid piping systems that minimize overall piping movement. However, too much swing could still affect other pipes and equipment, despite being within the capability of the grooved coupling.
This is where grooved technology comes in - it allows for controlled movement and is a reliable solution for accommodating seismic movement in piping systems. Typically, over 95% of the grooved couplings used in a piping system will be rigid, while the remainder will be flexible couplings.
The benefits of grooved technology are plenty - it reduces the risk of damage or failure of the piping system, ensures the safety and longevity of a building's infrastructure, and reduces maintenance and repair costs over time.
So, if you're looking for a versatile and effective solution to accommodate seismic movement in your building's piping system, grooved technology is the way to go.
