Reinforced concrete drainage pipes have always been the top choice in wastewater pipelines due to their excellent load-bearing capacity and durability. Many underground drainage systems around us are constructed using reinforced concrete drainage pipes. However, a common challenge in their actual use is the frequent occurrence of leakage at the joints. Next, Tangshan Fengrun Xiangrui Cement Pipe Factory will introduce the methods for dealing with joint leakage.
Ensure the task is completed to the highest standards: smooth, grout, coat, seal gaps, insert joints, compact, and finish. It should also be well-executed. Pay attention to maintenance after the insertion of reinforced concrete drainage pipes, as care during the middle and later stages is crucial as well.
2. When dealing with concrete reinforced concrete drainage pipes, it's crucial to determine whether they are socket-and-spigot joints or plain-end pipes, ensuring they do not leak. The same basic precautions should be taken. Pipes can be installed directly after the concrete foundation bedding is poured, with branch connections detailed below. For socket-and-spigot joints, a sufficient amount of cement mortar should be placed under the pipe holes to ensure uniform width around the branch pipes. Fill and seal the gaps to block the pipe joints securely.
3. Seal pipe joints at the concrete reinforcement drainage pipe connections through standardized procedures; only strict adherence to the actual operation standards of construction projects can reduce leakage. Otherwise, use flexible joints, specifically the rubber strips and gaskets compatible with the accessories of reinforced concrete drainage pipes. The rubber rings can be purchased together with the reinforced concrete drainage pipes from the supplier.
4. To fill the joints with asphalt felt, apply a layer of asphalt on the surface, then wrap the joint around the concrete stormwater and sewage pipes with roofing felt, and apply another layer of asphalt. This is what we refer to as "two oils and two materials." The reinforced concrete drainage pipes we see are generally handled in this manner.
