When it comes to design and specification of reinforced concrete pipeline systems, the CPAA recommends the use of AS/NZS 4058 “Precast concrete pipe (Pressure and non-pressure)” and AS/NZS 3725 “Desing for installation of buried concrete pipe”, for 100 year design life.

In addition to the this, the CPAA offers concrete pipe related design manuals to assist engineers make sound engineering decisions when it comes to specific requirements that are not covered in the Standards. These include:
