150kN and 100kN wheel
loads from adjacent lanes
simplified as a single load.
The publication of the
new Standard will ensure
users benefit from time
savings of 20-50% from
using the circular precast
manhole system. This has
the potential to reduce
installed costs by well over
15-30%, particularly when
the manholes are installed
without a concrete surround.
The precast solution
also uses less concrete and
there is less waste and
excavated material to be
disposed of as landfill.
The CPSA estimate 15,000
tonnes of CO2 equivalent
of embodied carbon would
be saved annually if all
manholes manufactured by
the Association's members
changed to the new circular
precast base system.
The CPSA's precast circular
manholes are further enhanced
by responsible sourcing of
raw materials from local
suppliers to ensure cradle-to-
site miles are low and the use
of recycled materials helps
keep embodied impacts to a
minimum.
In addition, because
the complete system is
manufactured under factory
conditions by quality assured
companies, the quality and
finish is better than could be
achieved on site. n
For further information
on changes introduced in
the Standard, the CPSA
has published a technical
bulletin.
