Virtual Plant Tour
Rinker Products
Take a virtual tour through two different ACPA member’s Concrete Pipe facilities. You will see the an overview of the process it takes to make pipe from the aggregate that comes into the plant to the truck that takes it away.
Innovations
Resiliency Through Innovations
The resiliency of concrete pipe doesn’t happen by accident—it comes through strong raw materials, advanced quality control, and years of innovation. This webinar focuses on the advancements and innovations within the concrete pipe industry resulting in the resilient and high-quality concrete pipe building our infrastructure and communities today!
Resilient Communities
Building Safer, More Resilient Communities with Concrete Pipe
Building safer and more resilient communities comes in a variety of ways, from product, to design, to installation. This webinar focuses on how adhering to DOT installation standards for concrete pipe will increase the longevity and value of infrastructure by reducing potential failures and decreasing maintenance costs.
Sustainability & Resilience
The Long-term Impact and Sustainability of Concrete Pipe
As a significant part of our infrastructure, the concrete pipe we bury underground has long-term implications in our communities. In this presentation, we take a further look into how concrete pipe provides resiliency and sustainability to the communities it helps build through the lens of it overall economic, social, and environmental impact.
Resilience Through Disaster
Pipe Buoyancy and Flotation
When it rains it pours, but when it pours, is your infrastructure resilient enough to last? Amongst concrete pipe’s advantages, its ability to resist flotation is one of the reasons it remains resilient even in the worst of weather. We walk through how to calculate the potential for storm drainage to become buoyant and the best practices to prevent it from occurring.
