  Definition of culvert pipe

  There are two interpretations of culvert pipe here

   

  The first one.

  Culvert pipe usually refers to a kind of pipe buried below the surface, and the difference with the ordinary pipe is "culvert", "culvert" word in the corrugated culvert pipe production enterprises, is often seen as a very important indicator. It is often said that "a pipe has several culverts", and the role of culverts is also great, which can greatly improve the pressure resistance of the pipe.

   

  The second type.

  Culvert pipe mainly refers to the use of culverts, bridges and other projects on the use of pipes.

   

  Culvert pipe classification

  According to the different materials of culvert pipe, it can be broadly divided into two categories: metal culvert pipe and cement culvert pipe and plastic culvert pipe!

   

  Culvert pipe application

  1. Main applications of cement culvert pipe

  It is generally used for the discharge pipeline of rainwater and sewage in towns.

  Can work with water, electricity and telecommunications, gas potential, etc. need to lay underground pipeline jacket pipe.

  Longitudinal and lateral drainage and permeability of highway.

   

  1. Plastic culvert pipe main applications

  Drinking water pipes, rainwater pipes, gas pipes, industrial corrosion-resistant pipes

  Indoor concrete flooring as a heating pipe for heating system

  Sanitary ware with downpipe, gas pipe, sewage pipe, underground cable pipe

  Water supply pipe, hot and cold water pipe, gas pipe, underground buried high pipe

   

  1. Main applications of metal culvert pipe

  Culvert, culvert, seepage well metal culvert pipe for highway, railroad and waterway

  Bridge, bridge load-bearing structure

  Metal culvert pipe for city sewerage pipe, rainwater pipe, sewage pipe

  Underground pipeline laying pipe, underground common area metal culvert pipe

  Metal culvert pipe for small bridge and large metal culverts and reinforcement

   

  Advantages of metal culvert pipe compared with other two.

  High strength: the strength of the metal culvert pipe is 1.5~3 times of the cement pipe.

  Lightweight: metal culvert pipe is only 1/15~1/5 of the same specification cement pipe.

  Long service life: the service life of metal culvert pipe is more than 100 years.

  Cost reduction: When the span diameter (diameter) of metal culvert pipe is ≥1m, the larger the span diameter, the more obvious the benefit.

  Construction is convenient and fast: no large machinery is needed on-site, only a small amount of manual operation is needed.

  Axial direction: it can be applied to the occasion where the settlement is more serious.

  The construction cycle is shortened by about half, saving labor cost

  The corrugated metal pipe is conducive to improving the "misalignment" between the land base structure and the embankment, improving the comfort of traffic.

  Environmental protection, low carbon: reduce or abandon the use of conventional building materials, such as cement, sand, stone, wood, which is conducive to environmental protection and reduces carbon emissions.

  The metal culvert pipe is easy to maintain at the later stage, and the corrugated metal pipe does not even need to be maintained in a considerable part of the environment, which obviously reduces the operating cost at the later stage.
