SmoothCor Pipe

SmoothCor™ PipeSteel-Lined Corrugated Steel Pipe for a Hydraulically Superior Storm Sewer Alternative

Smooth Cor is a smooth interior pipe that consists of a standard corrugated steel pipe as its structural exterior shell and includes a hydraulically smooth steel liner that is continuously attached to the exterior shell along the lock seam.

Both the interior liner and exterior shell are coated on both sides with TRENCHCOAT® polymer coating by Dow Chemical Company. Smooth Cor is also available in pipe-arch shape. Smooth Cor is covered by AASHTO M36, Type IA, Pipe Arch is Type IIA.


The rugged, corrugated steel shell of Smooth Cor Pipe supplies the structural strength to outperform rigid pipe, while a smooth interior steel liner provides a Manning’s “n” of 0.012. This combination makes Smooth Cor Pipe both the economical and performance alternative to concrete in many difficult situations such as weak soils, poor subsurface drainage conditions, steep slopes and high fills.

 

Benefits of SmoothCor Pipe

  • Smooth Interior - Provides a Manning’s “n” of 0.012 – superior hydraulics to conventional CMP
  • Corrugated Steel Shell - Supplies structural strength to outperform rigid pipe
  • Lightweight and High Beam Strength - Superior to concrete pipe in many difficult situations such as weak soils, poor subsurface drainage conditions, steep slopes and high fills
  • Pipe-arch available - Distributes the flow area horizontally, providing hydraulic capacity without lowering the grade in limited headroom conditions

MR Credit 4 – Recycled Content, 1-2 Points

Intent – Increase the demand for building products that incorporate recycled content materials. The sum of post-consumer recycled content plus one-half of the pre-consumer content constitutes at least 10% (1 point) or 20% (2 points), based on cost, of the total value of the materials in the project.

Potential Contribution: CONTECH Metal Pipe and Structures
  • Steel is the most recycled material in the world
  • Up to 80% recycled content

MR Credit 5.1 – Regional Materials, 1-2 Points

Intent – Increase demand for building materials and products that are extracted and manufactured locally to a job site in hopes to reduce the environmental impact that would result from transporting these goods. Products manufactured, extracted and recycled within 500 miles of the project site for a minimum of 10% (1 point) or 20% (2 points), based on cost of the total materials value.
