    Concrete encasement of ductile iron pipe fire main

    Thanks for the comments. The encasement would prevent pipe movement and enable faster sealing of the original soil. I am working under tropical rain every two days, which delays substantially the backfilling.

    Concrete encasement of ductile iron pipe fire main

    Is there any recomendation against the concrete encasement of a fire main with working pressure of 10bar in ductile iron pipe? Shall I execute some special protection on the push-on joints and mechanical joints? Thanks!
