Pipe Properties and Factory Testing for Vitrified Clay Pipe (VCP)
Gain a clear view of pipe properties and factory testing as specified in ASTM standards. This information forms the basis for an understanding of the differences in design, installation, operations and maintenance when VCP (Vitrified Clay Pipe) is used.
Comparative Analysis of Gravity Sanitary Sewer Pipe Materials
The material properties of VCP provide different options for engineers, contractors and maintenance professionals. Gain an understanding of the differences and build confidence in realizing the benefits provided by VCP in your system.
Trench Design, Bedding Classes and Safety Factors
Do you (or your designers) understand why a narrow trench is better when installing VCP? How and when are various bedding classes used? What are the limitations of pipe alignment and slope? Discuss these issues and more with a qualified professional as part of this workshop.
