GRP Pipe and Application

Kuzeyboru stands out in the sector with its advanced technology and quality-focused approach in manufacturing GRP (Glass Reinforced Polyester) pipes. The laying methods of GRP pipes vary depending on pipe rigidity, soil cover depth, soil properties, and the backfill materials used. Kuzeyboru maintains superior quality standards in these processes, offering long-lasting and reliable solutions to its customers.

Trench Width and Design

The installation of GRP pipes varies according to the pipe’s technical specifications, soil cover depth, soil structure, and the backfill materials used. The trench width should be planned to ensure proper placement of fittings and effective compaction of the backfill material. Especially in low-quality soil conditions, trench width can be increased to ensure pipe stability.

Standard Trench Type
A typical trench cross-section is designed to allow sufficient backfill material placement under the pipe and prevent damage during compaction. The “A” dimension (trench width) should be at least 0.4 DN, except for smaller diameters, ensuring proper bedding and compaction.
Backfill Material and Application Around Pipe Zone
Kuzeyboru adheres to international standards when selecting and applying backfill materials. The backfill is compacted in layers to ensure long-lasting and stable pipe bedding. Height differences on both sides of the pipe are kept limited to minimize damage from stones or foreign objects.
Backfill Material Size and Characteristics
The sizes of the backfill materials surrounding the GRP pipes are carefully determined to ensure the pipe sits evenly on its bedding without voids or irregularities. Soil properties and project requirements are considered in material selection.

Compaction of Backfill Over Pipe and Deflection Control

Kuzeyboru carefully defines the minimum soil cover thickness needed during compaction. The soil on top of the pipe should neither be too loose nor overly compacted to ensure optimal performance and durability.
Deflection Control and Quality Assurance
Deflection control after backfilling is a key part of Kuzeyboru’s quality assurance. The initial vertical deflection should not exceed 2%, indicating successful installation. If deflection exceeds this limit, Kuzeyboru experts make necessary adjustments to keep long-term deflection below 5%.

Kuzeyboru GRP Coupling Installation

Kuzeyboru also offers superior quality and ease of use in GRP coupling installation. REKA Type and Integrated Gasket Type coupling, combined with Kuzeyboru’s production technology, accelerate installation and ensure a reliable joint.

REKA Type GRP Couplings

  • Gasket grooves and rubber gaskets are cleaned from dirt and oil.
  • EPDM gaskets are properly seated in the sleeve groove and pressed evenly.
  • A rubber mallet is used to ensure the gasket protrudes evenly from the groove.

Integrated Gasket Type GRP Couplings

  • These couplings are produced with Kuzeyboru’s special manufacturing technology and do not require a gasket installation process.

  • Manufactured by wetting the fiber with resin and winding, these couplings simplify the installation process.

Kuzeyboru delivers GRP pipes and fittings to the site with REKA or Integrated Gasket Type couplings unless otherwise specified. Before installation, the pipe ends are cleaned and checked for delamination. During pipe laying, a trench is dug where the coupling will be seated, designed to facilitate the joining process. After installation, these trenches are filled with bedding material and compacted.

With its production technology and quality diversity, Kuzeyboru continues to be a pioneer in GRP pipe applications. Its product range offers solutions suitable for various project needs. Kuzeyboru GRP pipes will be a reliable part of your projects when installed and laid correctly. For more information, you can refer to our GRP installation catalog.
