United StatesEnvironmental ProtectionAgencyOffice of WaterWashington, 832-F-00-068 September 2000 WastewaterTechnology Fact SheetPipe Construction and MaterialsDESCRIPTIONT here are several different pipe materials availablefor wastewater collection systems, each with aunique characteristic used in different four different pipe materials described in thisfact sheet are ductile iron, concrete , plastic, andvitrified material selection considerations includetrench conditions (geologic conditions), corrosion,temperature, safety requirements, and cost. Keypipe characteristics are corrosion resistance (interiorand exterior), the scouring factor, leak tightness,and the hydraulic manufacturers follow requirements set by theAmerican Society of Testing Materials (ASTM) orAmerican Water Works Association (AWWA) forspecific pipe materials.
begins by casting a concrete core in a steel cylinder. This single process produces the LC pipe. Once the cylinder cures, it is wrapped with a prestressed steel wire and coated with a cement slurry and a dense mortar or concrete coating to produce the EC pipe. The manufacturing process for reinforced concrete cylinder pipe (RCCP) is similar to ...
