Reinforced concrete pipe’s (RCP’s) legacy of performance is rooted in its inherent strength and durability that can extend a project’s service life decades beyond that of alternative products. Manufactured with rigidity and longevity in mind, RCP can withstand adverse conditions such as poor soil, fire, corrosive environments, and groundwater and sea level rise. Prior to installation, cost savings can be achieved through unique specifications that accommodate a variety of loading scenarios. Depending on the installation, engineers can specify economical backfill without sacrificing RCP performance for additional costs savings. The ultimate financial advantage of RCP is found in its unmatched service life that necessitates minimal maintenance. Concrete pipe proves as a resilient solution for numerous applications
