Report on RCC and Prestressed Pipes

Prestressed concrete pipe has been mostly used in water-transmission line. In this paper we present the full-scale of our studies of PCCP and the evaluation of delimitation behavior of the structure. Recent attempt has been made to enable the PCCP structure suitable for the conventional cut and cover method. In this way, the disturbance to structures, construction time, and the cost can be decreased.
