This Study is performed to develop an agricultural hydraulic Structure for collecting and dreining pipe using polymer concrete.
The water permeability of collecting and draining pipe shows an 5.917ℓ/㎠/h, it is more 190 times as large as in the world maximum rainfall. The external pressure on the collecting and draining pipe is in the range of 1.85~5.25tf/m under 2-edge test, 2.6~6.2tf/m under sand mat and the vertical displacement is in the range of 0.48~1.06mm, 1.01~1.89mm, respectively. Also, an increasing rate of external pressure on the developed pipe is higher than that of PVE pipe to the variation of t/D.
Accrodingly, the pipe developed in this study will be used widely in agricultural hydraulic structures such as collecting and draining structure.
