TUNNEL SHAFTS
U.S. Composite Pipe, Inc. currently has the capacity to build up to 192” diameter tunnel shafts. The flat tops can have any supplied accessories cast into it, such as hatches, vents, or inserts.
Advantages of USCP tunnel shafts structures:
• Corrosion resistant material, requires no coating or lining
• Steel reinforced per current ASTM concrete manhole specification (C-478)
• Can be field cored to insure exact elevation of pipes
• Flat tops can be custom build for hatches and inserts
• Same unit weight as Portland cement concrete allows it to be designed to counter the affects of buoyancy when required
• Can be lifted and handled the same as precast concrete structures
