Flexible vs Rigid Pipe Materials
n Structure:– Rigid Concrete Pressure Pipe: built into the pipe itself– Flexible Steel Pipe: needs to be built as part of the bedding & backfill or
annular space material and hope that the soil or fill material structure is not disturbed (ie: by nearby excavations, operation of system, natural ground movement, etc). Initial construction is critical for both Open Cut and/or Tunnel

Flexible vs Rigid Pipe Materials
n Manufacture / Installation Assurance :– Rigid = pipe strength: Full time QA/QC process and independently certified– Flexible = encasement strength: Full time site inspection during bedding
and backfill installation or filling the annular space; confirming proper compaction or filling? (ie: by Region staff, Consultant, Contractor, Geotech?) What about QA/QC of the encasement?

CPP vs Steel - Not all pipe materials are made equal:
Lining(Lining separation/spalling)
Integrated Concrete(38/44mm) under
compression > (no risk)
Thin Mortar (13mm) on smooth steel
surface > (at risk)
Coating(Coating delamination)
Mortar embedment of prestress wire(low risk)
Mortar on smooth steel surface (at risk)

Comparison of Break Rates per Pipe Material
Canada USA
CPP 0.9 6.2
n 2012 comprehensive study by Utah State University – Buried Structures Laboratory illustrates break rate/100miles/year
n Per the Water Main Break Rates in the USA and Canada Reportdated April 2012, failure rates per pipe material are:
n The above represents a break rate increase of over 4x for Steel Pipe vs Concrete Pressure Pipe in Canada!
n What’s the current rate in the Region?
CPP 0.9 6.2
Steel 3.9 13.8

Details that should be consideredO
n Ontario, the GTA, and the Region have limited experience utilizing, installing, operating and maintaining US Steel Pipe
n The Region’s waterworks (and wastewater systems) have benefited from utilizing CPP – over 210km of CPP pipelines in service
n No Canadian steel suppler has the current ability to produce the steel pipe & fitting, as well as line and coat without outside sourcing. (contrary to the tender spec requirements – ref: 1.04A). Was it the Region’s intent to sole source US steel pipe?
n Cellular grout will not effectively support flexible steel pipe if and/or when external or internal forces are imposed on the pipeline. The Engineer’s report did not recognize steel as a flexible material as it did HDPE. Why not?
n For every Canadian $ spent on CPP, over $0.90 is returned to the local economy
n For every Canadian $ spent on US Steel, zero would be returned to the local economy

Summary and Conclusions
n CPP has a proven track record in Halton– Reliability with over 210km installed & in service– 24hr emergency and local support & service– In the unlikely even a repair on CPP is required,
engineering & field support is local– As-constructed layout drawings
n Specify “Made in Canada”– Entire pipeline would be produced in Ontario– Entire pipeline would be produced in Ontario– Support the local economy; not “buy American”
n Structurally, CPP is the best material option– The Structure is in the Pipe– Only ~5% of a rigid carrier pipe dependence is
on the annular space material (vs ~95% for a flexible steel carrier pipe)
– Cellular grout should not be a consideration for flexible pipe materials; the primary liner is designed as a form during install and is sacrificial
