Integrated health, safety
and environmental management
Safety is a core value of the Aveng Group and is integral to the way the group does
business. The Aveng Group aims for a zero fatality rate, and a disabling injury
frequency rate (DIFR) of less than 0,2.
The Aveng Groups focus on safety has seen NOSA award
Aveng Grinaker-LTA with a NOSCAR for fve consecutive years
for industry leading safety achievements on projects. This is
the highest accolade in safety, health and environmental risk
management in South Africa.
The Aveng Groups safety culture is cultivated through the
following key factors:
Entrenching safety as a value for its people
Identifying, assessing and managing risks to employees,
contractors, service providers and communities
Striving to achieve industry best practice
Meeting and where appropriate exceeding applicable
legal and other requirements.
With safety paramount to operations, the Aveng Group has
implemented various measures to minimise the possibility of
work place injuries. The Aveng Groups internal processes
also ensure that should an incident occur, a thorough
investigation is undertaken with a view to making relevant
changes to avoid recurrences.
The construction and engineering sector, in which the Aveng
Group is involved, by nature exposes people to hazardous
and high risk environments.The board and management of
the Group, however, believe that such hazards and risks can
be managed through strong leadership and adherence to
world-class standards and practices.
Through the safety vision HOME WITHOUT HARM,
EVERYONE EVERYDAY, our culture of safety awareness
is truly inculcated in the daily lives of the Aveng Groups
employees.

Introduction
Aveng Manufacturing Infraset manufactures
reinforced concrete pipes using two well-known
production processes: roller suspension and
automated vertical casting using high strength,
high durability concrete. Both these processes
are used worldwide and are acknowledged to be
ideal for concrete pipe manufacturing.
All the manufacturing processes are done
under carefully controlled conditions using advanced
technology and equipment. These processes provide
fexibility for the manufacturing of tailormade wall
thicknesses for special load and strength require-
ments.
If corrosion problems are anticipated, Aveng
Manufacturing Infraset has several methods of
prolonging the life of the concrete pipe. The
substitution of the siliceous aggregates with
calcareous aggregates results in the extended life
of the concrete pipe. An HDPE liner can alternatively
be added to the bore of the pipe to prevent the
sulphuric acids from coming into contact with the
concrete surface.
CLASSIFICATION OF PIPES
Types of pipe
Aveng Manufacturing Infraset offers a large range
of pipes readily available in nominal lengths of 2.5m
and also half-lengths on special arrangement.
Pipes ranging from 300 to 1800 with Interlocking
ogee joints, 300 to 1800 pipes with Spigot and
Socket joints and 900 to 1800 pipes with
In-the-Wall joints are all produced in three strength
classes.
Jacking pipes are manufactured only in class
100D and vary in size from 840 to 2500.
Stronger pipes capable of carrying higher D-loads
are manufactured on request.
All Aveng Manufacturing Infraset pipes bear the
SANS mark and are designed, manufactured and
tested in accordance with SANS 677.
SC (Stormwater Culvert) pipes are manufactured
with a non-watertight, interlocking ogee joint.
The sewer and irrigation (SI) pipes are manu-
factured using dolomitic aggregates and have a
watertight Spigot and Socket or In-the-Wall joint.
Sewer pipes with a sacrifcial layer (WSL) are
manufactured to the SABS 1200 LD requirements
with an additional 15mm cover for pipes ranging
from 300 to 1050 and 20mm for pipes 1200
1800. T2 and T4 pressure pipes, tested to 2 and
4 bar respectively are available on request.
Spigot and Socket and In-the-Wall joint pipes are
joined and sealed using either a rolling rubber or a
sliding rubber ring respectively. The sliding rubber
ring is installed using a soft soap lubricant.
Types of joints
Strength of pipes
Two strength tests are done on Aveng Manufacturing
Infraset pipes. The frst is a crushing test on both the
SC and SI pipes, and the second is a hydraulic
pressure test only on the SI pipes. The two edge-
bearing crushing test is done to a proof load and
also to an ultimate load 25% greater than the
proof load. The proof load is determined by the
class of pipe multiplied by the nominal diameter
of the pipe. The proof load test can be defned as
a line load that a pipe must resist without the
development of crack widths exceeding 0.25mm
over a length of more than 300mm. The ultimate
load is the maximum line load that the pipe must
support in the same test.
Interlocking Ogee Joint Spigot & Socket Joint
Butt Joint In-the-Wall Joint
Load classifcations
Note: D = Nominal Diameter in metres.
Example: A 1500mm 75D pipe must resist:
Proof Load = 75 x 1.5 = 113 kN/m
Ultimate Load = 75 x 1.5 x 1.25 = 140 kN/m
All SI pipes are tested to 1,4 bar and passes the test if the pipe
withstands the pressure for at least two minutes without any
sign of leakage.
Loads on pipes
Working loads on pipes consist of primary and secondary
loads. The primary loads that the pipes must carry are; the
mass of earth fll above the pipe, traffc loading and internal
pressures. The secondary loads result from soil movement and
temperature effects that infuence the pipe line. These secondary
loads are accommodated by the fexible pipe joints.
Earth loads are determined using the Marston and Spangler
theory and are dependant upon the type of installation, type of
backfll material and height of fll. The two installation conditions
are trench and embankment.
Traffc loads are dependant upon the wheel loads, spacing
and contact areas, and the distribution of these through the fll.
The standard traffc loads applicable to national highways are
given in the TMH7: Code of practice for the design of highway
bridges and culverts in South Africa. Aveng Manufacturing
Infraset pipes are designed for a NB36 load, which equals
an axle load of 360 kN or a 90 kN wheel load. The effective
contact area of the load is a square of size 0.3m x 0.3m.
Bedding factor refers to the amount by which the bedding
enhances the load-carrying capacity of the pipe. The bedding
factor is defned as the ratio between the supporting strength
of the buried pipe to the strength of the pipe as determined
in the two-edge bearing test. The bedding of a pipe consists
of a cradle of granular material underneath the pipe, which
supports it and transfers the load to the foundation. Bedding
factors are divided into four classes and are determined by the
angle of support and type of the bedding material.
Standard bedding classes and factors
Installation conditions
Trench condition occurs when the pipe is placed in a trench
cut into natural ground level and then backflled with suitable
material.
Trench condition: Class B
Trench condition: Class C
In the embankment condition the pipe is installed at ground
level and is backflled with suitable material.

Introduction
Concrete pipe jacking is a method of installing pipelines without
disrupting existing surface facilities or activities. With the increasing
growth in South African cities and towns and the consequent need
to refurbish, renew and upgrade existing services, pipe jacking
is seen to be a growing industry. Although the basic methods
of concrete pipe jacking are similar for all pipeline applications,
South African contractors have developed their own individual tech-
niques to achieve accuracy during jacking, to lengthen the jacking
distance and to control varying ground conditions.
Installation method
Concrete pipes are jacked from a jacking pit to a receiver pit
usually located at a manhole or access chamber. The main jacks
are installed in the jacking pit and are used to push the concrete
pipes into the cavity excavated ahead of the progressing
pipeline. The main jack capacity depends on the size of pipe,
length of the line and the type of ground in which it is being jacked.
There are typically two or four jacks with capacity of up to 300
tonnes.
The jacking forces are resisted by the thrust block in the jacking pit
and applied to the pipeline end through the steel thrust ring. The
concrete pipe end is protected against spalling by soft wood or
woodchip joint packers between the thrust ring and the concrete
surface. The steel cutting shield ftted to the lead pipe gives protection to
workers and allows steering and alignment adjustments.
Intermediate jacking stations may be required in long lengths and
hard ground conditions. Alternatively bentonite injections may be
used to reduce the friction between the pipes and the soil.
Pipeline alignment is continually monitored and adjusted during
jacking by laser from the jacking pit to a target fxed to the
inside crown of the lead pipe or shield. Gradual adjustments
are continuously made to avoid over-stressing the concrete pipe
joints.

PRECAST
CONCRETE
CULVERTS
Aveng Manufacturing Infraset
S-Class culverts bear the
SABS mark and are designed,
manufactured and tested in
accordance with SANS 986.
26
Technical Data
Introduction
Aveng Manufacturing Infraset design and
manufacture high quality, high performance factory
engineered precast concrete culverts for use in
a wide range of modern construction and civil
engineering projects.
The company expertise combined with modern
manufacturing facilities and years of experience
enables Aveng Manufacturing Infraset to offer an
extensive range of standard culverts as well as the
manufacturing of non standard, project specifc
culverts.
In addition to their exceptional load bearing
capabilities and structural stability, precast concrete
culverts require very little or no maintenance at all
to exceed the useful life.
CLASSIFICATION OF CULVERTS
Types of culverts
Aveng Manufacturing Infraset offers the full range
of S-Class rectangular portal culverts readily
available in lengths of 1.2m. Culverts ranging in
size from 450mm x 450mm up to 3600mm x 3000mm
with Butt-joints are manufactured to the relevant
S-Class strength requirements. All S-Class portal
culverts bear the SANS mark and are designed,
manufactured and tested in accordance with SANS
986:2006: Precast reinforced concrete culverts.
Reinforced concrete bases are available for all
S-Class culverts and are easily installed on site to
complete a structurally stable engineered unit.
SAR rectangular portal culverts manufactured to
Spoornet loading, NR 1983, have thicker deck and
leg sections to accommodate larger fll heights
and imposed loads. Culverts ranging in sizes from
900mm x 450mm up to 3000mm x 3000mm are
manufactured and unit lengths ranging from 1.2m
up to 1.5m as stated in the product tables. SAR
culverts are available in 2 strength classes, 0-5m fll
and 5-10m fll. Reinforced concrete bases are
available for SAR culverts being placed where the
fll height does not exceed a maximum of 5m.
Ribbed skew haunch culverts are designed and
manufactured to withstand C-Class loading conditions,
consisting of a vertical proof load of 150kN/m and
a horizontal proof load of 30kN/m. Ribbed culverts
range in size from 600mm x 450mm up to 3000mm
x 3000mm and vary in unit length as shown in the
product tables.
Aveng Manufacturing Infraset also manufacture
jacking box culverts in various sizes and in standard
lengths of 1.190m which are manufactured with bolt
holes for longitudinal ties.
Strength of culverts
Precast portal culverts are classifed in terms of their
crushing strength when subjected to a combination of
loading cases involving vertical and horizontal knife
edge tests conducted under factory conditions. The
proof load test can be defned as a line load that a
culvert must resist without the development of crack
widths exceeding 0.25mm over a length of 300mm
or over two adjacent ribs in ribbed 16 culverts. When
required, ultimate load test are also carried out to a
magnitude of 25% greater than the applicable proof
loads.
There are three different loading confgurations that
are applied to precast portal culverts to simulate
the installed conditions, namely the deck bending
moment, deck shear and the inner leg bending moment.
The inner leg bending moment is only taken into
consideration for the S-Class portal culverts.
Loads on culverts
S-Class portal culverts are tested to a vertical proof
load which is a function of the strength class multiplied
by the span of the culvert, a horizontal proof load of
30kN/m applied to the top of the leg and a horizontal
leg load applied at a height 0.2 times the height of
the leg measured from the bottom of the leg for
culverts with a height to span ration of more that 0.5.
The horizontal leg load is determined by the vertical
load multiplied by the relevant factor.

Technical Data
Load classifcations
SAR portal culverts are manufactured for installations under
railway track and designed to take account of train track, ballast
and backfll load combinations as stated in the Spoornet Loading
code of practice: NR 1983.
The fll height above the culvert, determines the strength class
of the culverts. All SAR culverts are available in two strength
classes to suit either 0-5m or 5-10m fll height conditions.

Defnitions
Yielding foundation conditions occur when the founding
material and the fll material are expected to settle at equal
rates (compressible material). The loading is calculated in
accordance with TMH7 Part 2 clause 2.3.3.2 (2).
Unyielding foundation conditions occur when the founding
material is incompressible (soft rock or harder material). The
loading is calculated in accordance with TMH7 Part 2 clause
2.3.3.2 (3) and (4).
Trench condition occurs when culverts are laid in a narrow
excavation and backflled to ground level.
Embankment (untrenched) condition occurs when culverts
are laid at ground level and backflled to fnal formation level.
The combinations of foundation and installation conditions used
in TMH7 are defned as:
Condition 1: Culverts in trench on unyielding foundation with
no projection
Condition 2: Culverts in an embankment on yielding foundation
Condition 3: Culverts in an embankment on yielding foundation
for h>1, 7b
Condition 4: Culverts in an embankment on unyielding foundation
for h<1, 7b
Where h = fll heights in metres
b = overall trench width or, if in an embankment,
overall culvert width, in metres.
Assumptions
The following assumptions and clauses of TMH7 Parts 1 and 2
were used to compile the table above:
A minimum fll height of 300mm over the culvert units.
Where this cannot be achieved, a 100mm reinforced
concrete slab must be used
Standard traffc loading SNABC
Fill material unit weight 20kN/m
Concrete unit weight 24kN/m
