Easi-Flex Integrated Seal

Easi-Flex System – Glipp Sealing System

Widely used throughout Europe, the Glipp system is designed to improve joint performance, whilst making life easier for ‘the man in the trench’.

Reliable JointsWatertight JointsSimplified JointingLong, Reliable Service Life

Easi-Flex is a system in which the seal forms an integrated part of the pipe joint. The position of the sealing ring is fixed in the socket, which guarantees watertight and secure pipe joints.

The Easi-Flex joint is a sliding joint. This requires the application of lubricant to the spigot prior to assembly. Sliding joints have an advantage that, if sand, gravel or clay stick on the spigot, they are easily wiped off the sealing surface during assembly. The Cast-in protective strip ensures the seal is in the correct position during manufacture.

The Protective Strip also ensures that the pipe socket is ‘clean’ and free from dirt, stones, mud etc prior to jointing. The Protective Strip is made of a non-toxic cellular plastic material. Details are available upon request.

Handling/Lifting Instructions

Pipe Diameters DN1800 to DN2400 are designed and manufactured to incorporate Easi-Lift jointing and lifting system.

Easi-Lift System

To lift the pipes, select the two short legs A and B on the chain set. Place the spherical coupling over the cast in anchor and engage by turning the tail of the head link down to the concrete. The pipe can then be lifted as normal.Never pass slings or other lifting appliances through the barrel and never lift more than one pipe at a time.

Jointing

Ensure that the seal is of the correct size, and is not damaged.Ensure pipe sockets and spigots are not damaged. Position the rubber ring on the end of the spigot end.

Do not use Lubricants when jointing Easi-Slide Pipes.Ensure each pipe to be laid is aligned with the laid pipeline and is fully supported along its length.Recommended method of joining pipes is shown below.

To joint the pipe using the chain system, attach the long leg C to the already laid pipe and the short leg B to the pipe to be laid. Take up the slack in the chains with the lifting pulley over the anchor of the laid pipe, and increase the upward force to joint the pipes. When jointed, ensure that there is no excessive slew or misalignment, this can easily be checked by reference to the joint gap.

Notes:1. All dimensions are in mm.2. Weights in kg are based on a concrete density of

2500kg/m!.3. Where relevant pipes are manufactured in accordance with BS EN 1916.4. Normal practice is to determine left or right branch

laterals to the main line by looking up the flow i.e. From the socket end.

5. Note right hand or left hand junctions (viewed socket to spigot) should be specified when ordering reduced junctions in pipe diameters DN1800 and above.

6. Note lifting chains are not suitable for joining purposes in pipes of diameter DN2400. Joint in the traditional method.

7. Do not install vertical junctions.

P14Handling & Laying Instructions

Recommended Site Work Practice – Open Cut Flexible Jointed Pipes

Handling & Storing Pipes1. Time and place of off-loading should be agreed before the units arrive at site. The contractor should provide suitable equipment for off-loading, stacking and

stringing out of pipes on site.2. Off-loading should take place at the nearest hard road to the point of installation. To ensure the safety of all personnel, units must be left in a stable position

well clear of the edge of the trench.3. Pipes should be inspected before off-loading to ensure that materials delivered correspond to order placed.4. Pipes should be carefully checked during off-loading to ensure no units are damaged. Any discrepancies should be

recorded on the delivery docket.5. Where stacking is necessary, this should be done on level ground and the bottom layer of pipes securely chocked to

prevent the stack from collapsing. Pipes should be supported under the barrel so that the socket is free of load so that the jointing faces are not damaged. They should preferably be stacked barrel to barrel with sockets hanging over alternative sides.

6. For safety reasons and to prevent damage to the lower layers of pipe in the stack, pipes should not be loaded or stacked in a greater number of layers than is shown in the table below.

7. Avoid damage when handling, especially to ends of concrete pipes. Never drag or roll pipes over the ground.

Note: FP McCann Easi-Flex pipes from DN1350 can be handled using our purpose designed Anchor System. Special lifting Anchors can be cast into pipes at manufacture. A Universal Head Link (Available from FP McCann) can then be hooked onto the exposed anchor heads to lift the pipe. Lifting Anchors are fitted to order.

Laying Pipes1. Trench Excavation - The trench should be excavated to the line, gradient and width indicated in the contract documents or as agreed with the engineer. The

safety of the public and site personnel is of paramount importance and care should be taken to ensure personal safety at all times.2. Trench Width - Any increase in trench width above that specified could increase the load on the pipe; increasing the quantity of excavation and the bedding

material required. A trench narrower than the specified width may impede the proper placing of bedding or backfill material or the correct jointing of pipes.3. Formation - Uniform support along the pipeline is essential. Rock outcrops and soft zones, which can cause differential settlement should be dug out and

replaced with compacted specified backfill material. De-watering may be necessary during pipe laying and subsequent backfilling operations. The specified bedding material shall be placed as detailed in the contract specification and trimmed to ensure uniform support of the pipe throughout the length of its barrel. Recesses should be prepared for the pipe sockets.

4. Pipe Laying - Before being lowered into the trench, pipes and fittings should be inspected to ensure that they have not been damaged during handling and storage on site. Units should be lowered carefully into the trench using recognised lifting tackle such as the Easi-Lift mechanical pipe lifter.

5. Jointing - Using our integral Easi-Flex Sealing System all pipe spigots must be fully lubricated with the pipe lube supplied just prior to being lowered into the trench. Please note, pipes should only be joined using an FP McCann approved lubricant. The socket of the laid pipe should at this stage be prepared by removing the polystyrene forming ring to leave a clean seal free from debris. The adjoining pipe should be lowered into position as level as possible centring the pipe spigot with the seal of the laid pipe so that the pipes are in line. On achieving this apply pressure to the socket end of the adjoining pipe using a substantial piece of timber to protect the pipe from damage when pushing the pipe home.

6. Testing - Acceptance tests on the completed pipeline give an indication of the level of control of workmanship and materials during construction.7. Visual Testing - Check for obstructions and debris within the pipe, the structural soundness of pipes, that joints are properly sealed and that the pipe invert is

even. Note: pipes smaller than DN750 may be inspected from manholes or by means of TV cameras.8. Water Tightness - The water tightness of a pipeline may be checked using a water or air test. Such tests will reveal the existence of cracked or porous pipes

or faulty joints. These tests should be made during and after laying and before backfilling. The test method will be detailed in the contract specification or referenced to an appropriate code of practice. In certain circumstances (e.g. where the distance between manholes is great, or when site conditions are such that backfilling must take place immediately or when laying small diameter pipelines), it is recommended that the pipeline be tested at regular intervals (say every 3 pipes) during construction.

9. Backfilling - After inspection and testing backfilling should proceed. The attention given to backfill selection is of great importance. The placing and compaction of inappropriate backfill may cause damage to a new pipeline. The structural strength of the completed pipeline depends as much on good site workmanship as on the strength of individual pipes. Consequently all backfill material must be selected and placed as detailed in the contract specification or recognised code of practice.

Note: For additional information on laying pipes see the CPSA website.www.concretepipes.co.uk/technicalguides/index.html

Wall thickness is 150mm. The base has a 150mm floor thickness with the outlet invert at exactly 150mm from ground level. A 1% fall exists across the channel toward the outlet (1:100). A gradient of 1:10 is present at the benching with the run-off toward the channel. The height of the DN1200 Easi-Base unit varies in accordance with the diameter of the main channel running through the unit. (Please refer to the table above for approximate heights).The DN1200 Easi-Base unit has 5° flexibility in the seal at each pipe connection point, this can be achieved both horizontally and vertically. (This is best illustrated in the diagram below).Additional connections can be made to a DN1200 Easi-Base unit once installed. This can be achieved either by coring into the existing unit and fitting a connection in the traditional manner; alternatively by the use of a backdrop into the manhole.

FP McCann cannot accept responsibility for joint failure where pipe connection has been undertaken by the contractor outside of manufacturer’s installation guidelines. FP McCann has designed their jointing system to fit many types of plastic, clay, concrete and iron pipes; however it is the responsibility of the contractor to ensure complete satisfaction with the connection between the chosen pipe and the Easi-Base.


P18DN1500 - DN1800 Easi-BaseDN 1500 & DN 1800 Precast Concrete Easi-Base

The Easi-Base range extends to include the larger diameter DN 1500 and DN 1800 concrete manhole bases. These bases will accommodate concrete, clay, twin wall and uPVC pipes from DN 150 to DN 900mm.

Bases are traditionally constructed manually in-situ using ready mix concrete which is troweled to form the base and benching. This practice is labour intensive and requires optimum site conditions to achieve a quality result. The Easi-Base precast alternative removes many of the variable factors in the manual process.

PT/279/0109 (Concrete)

Benching and channels are generally pre-formed with concrete. The DN 1500 and DN 1800 units are WRc approved and offer the same construction benefits as the DN 1200 Easi-Base.


P19FPM Tools AutoCAD

www.microdrainage.co.uk

The FPM Auto-CAD toolbar is a set of instructions designed for AutoCAD and aimed mainly at Civil Engineers, Quantity Surveyors and estimators used to produce quick and accurate ‘drainage take offs’.It provides tabular data for the drainage layout, and specifies the relevant FP McCann Easi-Bases automatically.The FPM Tools toolbar is used to work through the drainage plan in sequence, specifying each manhole in turn. Manhole references, invert levels, cover levels, pipe types and pipe lengths are all recorded. When complete, a table is generated within the actual plan. This table can then be exported as a .csv file and opened in excel or other similar supporting program.

Subscribers to Micro Drainage’s WinDes 2013.1 sustainable drainage software, can incorporate Easi-Base into quick and accurate drainage scheduling in accordance with the Predl clock notation.

The screen shot above shows the drainage table generated within AutoCAD and the exported Excel table ready for the quantity surveyor / buyer /estimator to send out for pricing.

From within AutoCAD, the Manhole Edit tool can be used to assemble the manhole and pipe data at a particular manhole reference within the plan.

Handling & Installing Manholes1. Time and place of off-loading should be agreed before the units arrive at site. The contractor should provide suitable

equipment for off-loading. For safety, all chamber sections are delivered chimney fashion.2. Off-loading should take place at the nearest hard road to the point of installation. When off-loaded, units should never

be stored on their side (on the roll), but should always be laid in the “as installed” position.3. Carefully inspect units during off-loading to verify that products are undamaged and comply with order placed. Note

any discrepancies on the delivery docket.

Recommended Site Work Practice – Manhole Chambers

ConstructionTo ensure that the manhole structure is vertical, accurate levelling of the formation or the in-situ concrete foundation is essential.Tongue and groove joints should be installed with the socket facing upward. Manhole sections fitted with double steps can be used in any depth configuration. However, it is recommended that the deepest section of manhole units should be used whenever possible in order to minimise the number of joints and costs. Precast cover slabs can be laid directly onto the shaft or chamber rings.To allow for any differential settlement between manhole and pipeline, a flexible joint incorporating short length rocker pipes should be constructed as close as possible to the outside of the manhole or the concrete surround if used. Extra care must be taken to ensure that joints are properly made.

JointingPrecast manhole components are provided with joints formed within the wall section. These are sealed with cement / sand mortar or with proprietary mastic sealants. Precast concrete manhole units, well jointed, provide an adequate seal under normal conditions.

ReinstatementIn-situ concrete surround to precast concrete manholes is not necessary as a well constructed precast manhole is a strong durable structure with its own inherent strength and would only require a surround for exceptional structural reasons. However under some specifications a concrete surround is required where the depth from ground level to the base of the concrete chamber rings, exceeds 4.5m. Such surround should be of 150mm thickness. Backfilling should take place as each precast manhole section is placed. It must be brought up evenly and compacted around the manhole to prevent displacement.

TestingIt is generally unnecessary to apply water tests to manholes. In working conditions manholes are not normally full of water.Prevention of infiltration is of more relevance than ex-filtration. If infiltration does occur it can be seen and remedied by sealing using an appropriate method.

Note: When handling precast products on site it is recommended that the contractor has the correct lifting equipment in place and adheres to the relevant lifting guidelines and standards. Refer to:- www.concretepipes.co.uk/technicalguides/index.php

P30Easi-Safe Fall Arrest System

Award Winning Safety Solution For Manhole Construction

The client, consultant engineer, contractors and suppliers all have a duty to mitigate hazards on site whenever reasonably practicable. One such hazard identified is the risk of operatives falling through manhole openings particularly during the construction process and also in follow up maintenance work.

Working with partners Severn Trent Water, engineer Grontmij and contractor to the water sector, Morgan Sindall plc, FP McCann have designed a safety award winning solution. Easi-Safe is a temporary or permanent fall arrest system that allows for safe working around the manhole opening prior to the fitting of the ironwork. In the construction of a manhole, operatives often work unprotected from the opening at surface level when the final stages of completion occur. This includes the final brickwork up to the manhole frame and the mortar bedding of the frame itself.

With most standard cover slabs, the access point for man entry is open and it is left to the contractor to cover on site. In many site situations these openings remain for a number of days while gangs complete phases of work. Easi-Safe immediately addresses this problem. The future production of all standard access cover slabs will incorporate the optional protective grid which will remain in the slab even when the final D400 steel cover and frame are set in place at surface level.

The galvanised mild steel grid is available in four standard sizes:-610mm x 610mm675mm x 675mm750mm x 600mm1200mm x 675mm

The Easi-Safe grid is seated on load bearing corners cast into a standard range of manhole cover slabs. As a temporary fall arrest system, once the construction of the manhole is complete, the grid can be removed prior to the fitting of the ironwork. Alternatively, Easi-Safe can be a permanent fixture, left in place beneath the manhole lid. The spacing between the bars allows for ease of inspection and jetting of the manhole base during maintenance work.

Pipes should only be connected to the Easi-Pit using an FP McCann approved lubricant

CatchpitCatchpitThe catchpit e"ectively provides a sealed sump manhole, a monolithic precast concrete unit #tted with connector seals which can be used to connect to the following types of pipe: uPVC, twinwall, clay, ductile iron and concrete. The catchpit is designed to accommodate pipe sizes DN150 to DN450. The catchpit is designed in line with highway speci#cation.FP McCann can produce catchpits upto DN375 in a straight through orientation (180 degrees). 4-way units with orientations at 90 degrees can be produced upto DN300 only; beyond DN300 4-way orientations are not available. DN450 inlets must be cored onsite.

Benefits of using the Catchpit unit Creates an immediate watertight structure Cost bene#ts with reduction in construction time and resource requirement Economically advantageous as limited wet trades are required in the manhole

construction Accommodates connection to all types of pipe used in road and manhole

P34DN 1050 Highway’s Agency Catchpit

Drainage

Precast concrete catchpits with the new $exible rubber pipe connector seals can be utilised every 100 metres on a single lane carriageway, replacing the requirement to cast a base sump in situ and construct the catchpit from a standard DN1050 manhole ring.

The innovative EPDM 40 $exible rubber seal at the connection points can accommodate pipe sizes DN150 to DN 300, including DN225. This negates the need to saw cut openings in the concrete wall and the use of wet mortar trades to seal the pipe surround.

Catchpits are supplied with factory #tted pre-marked EPDM 40 rubber blanks. The unique rubber blank/seal has pre-formed cutting grooves around the three DN entry sizes indicated. This allows for accurate cutting out to pipe diameter requirement. There is no similar system available in the market. Once pipes are #tted into the seal, up to 45 degrees of pipe de$ection is permitted without breaking the seal.

Highways Agency Compliant EPDM flexible seal DN1050 CatchPit

The signi#cant savings are in time, eliminating the need for follow-up #nishing gangs. Added safety bene#ts are keeping operative time in the excavation to a minimum and no power tools are required to cut concrete. Indirect cost bene#ts are as a result of saving up to 26 hours of time related to curing of wet trades on a traditional build.

Requirements for catch pits are as speci#ed in the MCHW 500 Series Clauses and MCHW 3: F Series Drawings. The MCHW clauses call for the catch pit to be in compliance with BS EN 1917 and BS5911. FP McCann catchpit products are manufactured under BSI Kitemark approval to comply with BS EN 1917 and BS 5911 and are therefore fully compliant to HA speci#cation.

Can be used in straight through, 90° connection or straight through with a cross drain.

Once pipe is fitted to the connector, up to 45° of deflection is possible without breaking the seal.

P36Easi-Flow ChamberThe FP McCann Easi-Flow chamber combines an integral base and side walls with provision for inlet and outlet connections. It can be used in a number of applications, including:

As a silt-trap As a valve chamber As a flow rate controller (requires installation of a vortex valve unit, sold separately)

Sizes availableEasi-Flow chambers are available between DN1200 - DN2400. Bespoke larger units can be manufactured to client specification.

Flow rate controlFP McCann can offer supply of a Hydro-Valve vortex flow control device. The Hydro-Valve is designed to limit storm water outflow to a specific discharge rate. Sizes are available between 1 – 80 l/s depending on head height. The unit is self activating with no need for an external power source and comes with a certified flow rate.The Hydro-Valve is a device for controlling storm water flow by hydraulic effect without requiring moving parts. At low flow rates, water entering through the inlet passes through the vortex chamber to the outlet with no restriction. As flow rate increases water enters through the inlet with enough energy to create a vortex in the vortex chamber which results in a considerable pressure drop between the inlet and the outlet restricting the flow to the allowable discharge. The Hydro-Valve therefore operates automatically with no moving parts and no external power source. A typical application of this valve is to control the flow from storm water attenuation tanks preventing downstream flooding during periods of heavy rainfall.The Hydro-Valves are custom designed to achieve a specified design flow rate at a given head height. They are manufactured under an ISO 9001 quality assurance system and are available in sizes compatible with the FP McCann Easi-Flow chamber range.

SummaryThe handhold entry pole system is suitable for aiding maintenance engineers in the initial entry into a manhole from the surface level. Once fitted, the entry pole is a permanent fitting in the manhole which is stored in the lowered position beneath the level of the cover. When required, the entry pole can be easily extended by simply hooking the easy to reach loop located at the top of the pole, pulling the handle upwards and twist locking into position. The handhold then provides a stable support to aid the entrance of the manhole as well as a clear visual indication of the location of the manhole when open. This helps prevent injury of other people in the area. Once the engineer has used the entry pole to aid their return to the surface, the pole is simply twisted to unlock it from the raised position and lowered back into the manhole ready for the next time it is needed.

SpecificationThe handhold has a pole length of 1200mm and can be assembled to give three different distances from the pole to the wall. This is designed to accommodate different cover positions.

Advantages Helps the user find the first step safely Creates visual aid to indicate location of manhole to other people in the areaEasy to fit Easy to raise and lower High strength for ultimate safety Low cost Can be fitted to any Caswick step Two projections for round or flat walled manholes

The production of water impermeable surfaces in construction is inevitable. This includes roof areas on buildings, car parks, loading bays and road pavements. The provisions of these surfaces interrupts the natural drainage process, creating increased stormwater runoff in respect of both volume and flow rate.In many cases this increase in stormwater flow and volume is a problem as the local sewer or watercourse does not have the sufficient capacity to cope. This problem could be alleviated by an increase in the size of the stormwater sewer or watercourse, thus providing the capacity within the drainage system to cope with the increased surface water. This however may be expensive, cause major infrastructure disruption, and may often be completely unfeasible.Legislation under Planning Policy Statement 25 and Building Regulations approved Document H3 for flood risk assessment (SUDS), has created the need for planners and developers to design and install effective storm water management systems.The types of system that can be employed to overcome these issues are well documented and varied. Quite often, they can be very technically demanding in their operation, maintenance and construction. The selection of a system will depend on site constraints, position, expected loading, geographical limitations and inevitably cost.The Easi-Storm system offers a complete solution to the stormwater attenuation problem and utilises a tried, tested and approved method of stormwater storage. F P McCann can provide the complete package of design, product specification, supply of products, and advice with installation.

Water Management

IntroductionFP McCann have designed and developed a new range of Hydrodynamic Separators for the treatment of urban catchment storm-water runoff. The Easi-Hydro Separator provides a cost effective solution for designers, engineers and contractors involved in the provision of sustainable urban drainage systems. The Easi-Hydro Separator has no moving parts, requires no power and is constructed in precast reinforced concrete. All internal components are manufactured in GRP and stainless steel ensuring long asset life.

The Easi-Hydro Separator has been independently tested by WRc and total solids removal rates have been measured ranging from 85 to 92%. The Easi-Hydro Separator is also effective in the removal of hydrocarbons, litter and other storm-water debris.

OperationThe Easi-Hydro Separator is specifically designed to remove suspended solids, hydrocarbons and floatable debris from the storm-water runoff. The Easi-Hydro Separator chamber is constructed in precast reinforced concrete and supplied complete with a unique, factory installed, GRP flow management module. This unique design produces low energy vortex flow patterns allowing the solids to settle to the bottom of the treatment chamber for subsequent removal. Re-suspension of the solids is minimised by provision of a GRP baffle plate positioned above the solids storage sump. Floatable debris is retained within the Easi- Hydro Separator and prevented from discharging by a dip outlet pipe and launder channel arrangement.

Flows to treatment are controlled by a specially designed launder channel and inlet pipe arrangement. Flows in excess of the maximum treatment flow overflow a weir, bypass the treatment zone and directly discharge through the outlet pipe. This helps to minimize the effects of scour within the treatment compartment and optimises the performance of the unique Easi-Hydro Separator.

Easi-Rain by FP McCann is a bespoke range of precast water storage chambers that are compatible with water harvesting systems for residential, industrial / commercial and agricultural installations. Capturing rainwater for re-use offers significant cost savings for the user and benefits the environment by increasing water resources and further enhancing water amenity. Easi-Rain complies with Environment Agency SUDS (Sustainable Urban Drainage System) directives.

The basic concept of harvesting rainwater is simple - rainwater is mostly collected from the roofs of buildings - it flows by gravity through gutters and downspouts and is then filtered and collected by a storage tank. From the tank it can be recirculated or treated to produce a better quality of recycled water.

Smoothbore Shaft and Tunnel Segments


P51Smoothbore Shaft and Tunnel Segments

FP McCann design and manufacture a bespoke range of both Trapezoidal and Expanded Segmental Smoothbore tunnel linings, designed to provide durability, speed and ease of installation in tunnel construction. Trapezoidal tunnel linings are developed to work alongside technologically advanced tunnel boring machines, with linings designed and manufactured to suit exacting project requirements.

Tunnel segments can be modified to suit a variety of joint fixings, segment thickness and tunnel diameter’s. The latest manufacturing techniques incorporate steel fibre dosing to guarantee a high quality, reliable product. The wedge shape design of individual segments eliminates the requirement for a special closure segment.

Mix and reinforcementSlab sections are wet cast in fabricated steel moulds and steel cage reinforced. The concrete mix design is to a standard characteristic strength of 55N/mm2 at 28 days. Alternative mixes are available.

Design FeaturesDesign and detailing may be undertaken by FP McCann or to the customers design specification. Reinforced concrete cover slabs are generally designed to withstand loads in accordance with the recommendations of British Standard 5400:Part 2 & BD37/01, generally 30 units of Type HB loading, together with the load assoicated with overburden. Cover slabs can be designed to withstand 45 units of Type HB loading, or loading specific to contract. In non-trafficked areas, the slabs may be designed for notional superimposed loads. Landing slabs are designed to an imposed load of 5kN/m2.

Lifting and HandlingDepending on lifting requirements on site, FP McCann are able to supply fitted lifting loops or cast in sockets and spherical head lifting anchors.

Quality standardsShaft Cover Slabs and Landing Slabs are manufactured in accordance with FP McCann’s quality management system, BSI accredited to BS EN 9001.

FP McCann manufactures a range of reinforcing units suitable for sinking by the caisson method. Caisson shaft units can be supplied with diameters of 2100mm up to 4000mm. Caissons are manufactured in accordance with the requirements of BS EN 1917, and have Kitemark certification where relevant to the scope of BS5911 (2100mm – 3000mm diameters). However 3600mm and 4000mm diameters remain operative within the scope of the ISO9001 accredited Quality Management System.

Open caisson-sinking techniques permit a shaft structure to be progressively sunk, either under its own weight or with the aid of caisson jacks, in a controlled manner from the surface to a predetermined depth. Caisson shafts are constructed using a metal cutter ring and base section with rings being added on top as excavation proceeds. The technique is suited to shaft construction through weak soils, high-plasticity clays, silts, sands and gravels; particularly below the water table.

Infrastructure & Power

Power Infrastructure Cable Ducting Systems

FP McCann offers a specialist range of precast reinforced concrete cable troughs and ducting systems used to house and protect most types of services, including power and communication cables and pipes for gas, water and chemicals. Easi-Duct access troughs and ducts can be buried underground, located above, or flush with surface levels to provide protection against accidental or malicious damage and to offer easy access for maintenance and repair. Three types of flush fitting lids are supplied in either reinforced precast concrete, GRP composite, or steel tray. All are designed and tested for loading group class to BS EN 124.

Typical Easi-Duct applications include; rail and highway infrastructure; power stations; gas, oil and chemical installations; industrial, commercial and domestic developments; docks and harbours; water and sewage treatment plants.

BenefitsCompared with the alternatives of direct burying of cables and pipes or overhead suspension, Easi-Duct has a number of advantages:-

Applicable to power and telecom cables in addition to pipes for liquids and gases

Chemically resistant concrete

Services buried at depth are unexposed to weather changes (i.e. freezing or overheating)

High strength load bearing units

Easy access for cable repair, jointing or new cable additions

Whole life costing of precast concrete is lower than other forms of ducting construction

Non conductive to electricity

FP McCann can produce specialist units moulded to requirement

Design FeaturesThe troughs, ducts and lids are designed and tested for load classes A15, B125, C250 and D400. For loadings E600 and F900, Easi- Duct systems are designed, tested and manufactured specific to order.

From our recently extended factory at Cadeby, we combine over 30 years experience to provide an extensive range of attractive, durable and practical fencing solutions.

The range includes: slotted posts, with gravel boards to suit; morticed posts; recessed posts; chainlink posts; universal posts and screed rails.

Our gravel boards are available in a selection of attractive designs including brick and rock-faced patterns.

Concrete fence posts are becoming a popular alternative to wooden posts, offering greater strength and durability, and of course, will last much longer.

Easy to handle Fenn-Lite fencing posts and gravel boards are up to 45% lighter and offer the same strength and durability as standard weight products.
