The difference in the reservoir level and the lowest point of the water mains is 180 m. The expected pressure due to water hammer is 7.5 kg/cm2 in a pressure conduit of diameter 1 m. Assuming the efficiency of the riveted joints of the pipe as 0.6 and minimum cover 3 mm for corrosion, the thickness of the pipe materials, is
