The CPAA provides the industry with a wealth of information on concrete pipe and related products, covering important aspects such as durability, pipeline design, material technology, hydraulic requirements, installation techniques, testing and acceptance.

This section includes a number of these documents in various forms. Our Technical Publications in the form of Engineering Guidelines, Facts Sheets, and Technical Briefs, have been complied by CPAA technical experts and are available free of charge to download.

The Technical Notes relate to specific topics that industry requires information on, or answers to, now. These one to two page documents are easy to download and are updated regularly.

The Technical Papers page contains a number of concrete pipe related papers, reports and presentations. These have either been presented at conferences, complied for research, or included in technical journals, and have been made available to the industry.

The Design Manuals page includes free downloads (pdf) of the CPAA publications for hydraulic design and concrete jacking pipe design.

Don’t forget – you can also download our design software program, PipeClass, to assist in selecting the right class of pipe for your project.
