WHY CONCRETE - DEPENDABILITY

Concrete Pipe's Dependability

ACPA-Image-Precast-Box-Culverts-Formed-the-runway-at-LAX-3Technology is now in place for making concrete pipe more reliable than it has ever been before. Decades of research and development of many aspects of concrete pipe has enabled concrete pipe producers to change concrete mixes, pipe design, and improve manufacturing processes to provide products that can withstand a complete range of underground environments and effluent profiles.

Dependability is not just a matter of how a product performs on its own. It also has a lot to do with how well it is understood by the people who plan, design, construct and install a project. How well does the engineer know its properties? How adept is the project team at spotting and correcting potential problems before they happen? How experienced are the crews when it comes to flawless installation and execution?

In this vital area, no material is better understood and more commonly used in the field than concrete pipe. That adds up to fewer mistakes and a greater level of comfort and confidence.

DEPENDABILITY


Concrete pipe’s long-term performance is proven, not theoretical. Innovation has made concrete pipe more reliable and dependable than ever. This innovation includes improvements to concrete mixes, pipe design, manufacturing processes and more.
