This data sheet will explain how easy it is to use INFRAPIPE CIVILPIPE – a twinwall pipe 225-1000 SN8/SN16 – in parts of a stormwater system to save a lot of money. Installation is quicker, easier and safer too. Basically, do all the fiddly stuff with 100 & 150 in PVC – once it gets to 225+ in the ground, switch to CIVILPIPE!
These are the easiest ways of switching over:
- Use a fitting with PVC inlets and a CIVILPIPE outlet (above).
- Go from PVC to a CIVILPIPE Mainway with a PVC2TW connector.
- Bring CIVILPIPE out of the manhole with a Manhole Starter.
- Bring CIVILPIPE straight out of the catchpit or sump.
Getting length right is easy too. Pipes normally join spigot to socket but if needed:
- Use a Shear band to join two CIVILPIPES of the same size.
- Use a CIVILPIPE slip coupler.
- Use CIVILPIPE fittings (all female – double socket).
- Use the manhole, catchpit or sump to align and match lengths.
COMPARATIVE WEIGHTS
CIVILPIPE is so much lighter that 2-person laying is a practicality. No need to stop the digger to lift a 144kg PVC 375 into place – two people can lift the 45kg CIVILPIPE equivalent! When a product is that much lighter, everything becomes easier – unloading, laying pipe out, cutting, joining, connecting and dealing with the offcuts.
CIVILPIPE twinwall is approved nationwide (except for the two councils that are not processing any applications).
