Corrugated Steel Pipe Arch

Corrugated Steel Pipe Arches are strong, space-saving drainage solutions

Corrugated Steel Pipe Arch, also known as Structural Plate Pipe Arch, offers a durable and cost-effective solution for a wide range of drainage and infrastructure applications. Corrugated Steel pipe arches are manufactured from round corrugated steel pipes that are shaped through internal or external pressure to achieve the desired span and rise dimensions. Corrugated Steel Pipe Arch is particularly advantageous for sites where headroom is limited, providing both functional and hydraulic benefits, especially in low-flow conditions.
Corrugated Steel Pipe Arch

Corrugated Steel Pipe Arches are a type of culvert made from corrugated steel that features a distinctive horseshoe-like shape. This design provides a highly effective and durable solution for a wide range of infrastructure and drainage needs, particularly in areas with limited headroom or where a larger water flow capacity is required.

Application

Corrugated Steel Pipe Arches, also known as Structural Plate Pipe Arches, are highly versatile and durable products designed for a wide range of infrastructure and drainage applications. The horseshoe-shaped design is particularly beneficial for projects where limited headroom is a concern or when increased water flow capacity is needed.

  • Drainage Systems: Ideal for use in stormwater management, highway, and railway drainage systems, where effective water flow and limited vertical space are essential.
  • Culverts: Used to create efficient and durable culverts in areas with restricted space, offering a cost-effective alternative to traditional round pipe designs.
  • Bridges and Temporary Bridges: Suitable for creating temporary or permanent bridge structures, particularly in regions where space constraints or budget concerns arise.
  • Underground Utilities: Provides an efficient solution for underground installations, including sewer systems and storm drains, where a compact design is needed to maximize space.
  • Rehabilitation of Existing Infrastructure: Perfect for the replacement or reinforcement of aging culverts, bridges, and other infrastructure, especially where traditional methods are impractical.
