Abstract
Prestressed concrete cylinder pipe (PCCP) is widely used to construct large diameter water mains. These water mains usually have a high importance of failure, and any unexpected service interruptions from a PCCP failure may place a significant burden on the pipe owner. Utilizing the classic risk-based approach that multiplies the consequence of the failure by the probability of failure to generate an overall risk, as part of the PCCP asset management strategy, is governed by the PCCP probability of failure (POF) rather than the PCCP consequence of failure when critical transmission water mains are in question. Therefore, it is paramount to inspect and assess PCCP based on advanced state-of-the-art technologies to estimate the physical condition of the PCCP and use these inspection findings to develop a survivor curve that considers the pipe deterioration level and the pipe POF at each deterioration stage. This paper presents a method of interpreting PCCP composite stiffness measurements, which is an indicator of PCCP deterioration, and estimates the POF at each degradation stage by using the PCCP yield limit criteria. Limit states design as per AWWA C304 (serviceability, damage, and strength) will be assessed based on laminated composite plate theory and plotted on the survivor curve.

Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
