DrainageEasi-Flex Sealing SystemP8Easi-Flex Integrated Seal Cast in Seal Self Aligning Faster and Easier JointingRubber seal onsocket of pipePolystyrene covers to beremoved from new pipesbefore useEasi-Flex System – Glipp Sealing SystemWidely used throughout Europe, the Glipp system is designed to improve jointperformance, whilst making life easier for ‘the man in the trench’.Reliable JointsWatertight JointsSimplified JointingLong, Reliable Service LifeEasi-Flex is a system in which the seal forms an integrated part of the pipe joint. Theposition of the sealing ring is fixed in the socket, which guarantees watertight andsecure pipe joints.The Easi-Flex joint is a sliding joint. This requires the application of lubricant to thespigot prior to assembly. Sliding joints have an advantage that, if sand, gravel or claystick on the spigot, they are easily wiped off the sealing surface during assembly. TheCast-in protective strip ensures the seal is in the correct position during manufacture.The Protective Strip also ensures that the pipe socket is ‘clean’ and free from dirt,stones, mud etc prior to jointing. The Protective Strip is made of a non-toxic cellularplastic material. Details are available upon request.8www.fpmccann.co.ukprecast@fpmccann.co.uk

DrainageHandling & Laying InstructionsP14Recommended Site Work Practice – Open Cut Flexible Jointed PipesHandling & Storing Pipes1. Time and place of off-loading should be agreed before the units arrive at site. The contractor should provide suitable equipment for off-loading, stacking andstringing out of pipes on site.2. Off-loading should take place at the nearest hard road to the point of installation. To ensure the safety of all personnel, units must be left in a stable positionwell clear of the edge of the trench.3. Pipes should be inspected before off-loading to ensure that materials delivered correspond to order placed.4. Pipes should be carefully checked during off-loading to ensure no units are damaged. Any discrepancies should berecorded on the delivery docket.5. Where stacking is necessary, this should be done on level ground and the bottom layer of pipes securely chocked toprevent the stack from collapsing. Pipes should be supported under the barrel so that the socket is free of load so that thejointing faces are not damaged. They should preferably be stacked barrel to barrel with sockets hanging over alternativesides.6. For safety reasons and to prevent damage to the lower layers of pipe in the stack, pipes should not be loaded or stackedin a greater number of layers than is shown in the table below.7. Avoid damage when handling, especially to ends of concrete pipes. Never drag or roll pipes over the ground.Note: <strong>FP</strong> <strong>McCann</strong> Easi-Flex pipes from DN1350 can be handled using our purpose designed Anchor System. Special liftingAnchors can be cast into pipes at manufacture. A Universal Head Link (Available from <strong>FP</strong> <strong>McCann</strong>) can then be hookedonto the exposed anchor heads to lift the pipe. Lifting Anchors are fitted to order.Laying Pipes1. Trench Excavation - The trench should be excavated to the line, gradient and width indicated in the contract documents or as agreed with the engineer. Thesafety of the public and site personnel is of paramount importance and care should be taken to ensure personal safety at all times.2. Trench Width - Any increase in trench width above that specified could increase the load on the pipe; increasing the quantity of excavation and the beddingmaterial required. A trench narrower than the specified width may impede the proper placing of bedding or backfill material or the correct jointing of pipes.3. Formation - Uniform support along the pipeline is essential. Rock outcrops and soft zones, which can cause differential settlement should be dug out andreplaced with compacted specified backfill material. De-watering may be necessary during pipe laying and subsequent backfilling operations. The specifiedbedding material shall be placed as detailed in the contract specification and trimmed to ensure uniform support of the pipe throughout the length of its barrel.Recesses should be prepared for the pipe sockets.4. Pipe Laying - Before being lowered into the trench, pipes and fittings should be inspected to ensure that they have not been damaged during handling andstorage on site. Units should be lowered carefully into the trench using recognised lifting tackle such as the Easi-Lift mechanical pipe lifter.5. Jointing - Using our integral Easi-Flex Sealing System all pipe spigots must be fully lubricated with the pipe lube supplied just prior to being lowered into thetrench. Please note, pipes should only be joined using an <strong>FP</strong> <strong>McCann</strong> approved lubricant. The socket of the laid pipe should at this stage be prepared byremoving the polystyrene forming ring to leave a clean seal free from debris. The adjoining pipe should be lowered into position as level as possible centring thepipe spigot with the seal of the laid pipe so that the pipes are in line. On achieving this apply pressure to the socket end of the adjoining pipe using a substantialpiece of timber to protect the pipe from damage when pushing the pipe home.6. Testing - Acceptance tests on the completed pipeline give an indication of the level of control of workmanship and materials during construction.7. Visual Testing - Check for obstructions and debris within the pipe, the structural soundness of pipes, that joints are properly sealed and that the pipe invert iseven. Note: pipes smaller than DN750 may be inspected from manholes or by means of TV cameras.8. Water Tightness - The water tightness of a pipeline may be checked using a water or air test. Such tests will reveal the existence of cracked or porous pipesor faulty joints. These tests should be made during and after laying and before backfilling. The test method will be detailed in the contract specification orreferenced to an appropriate code of practice. In certain circumstances (e.g. where the distance between manholes is great, or when site conditions are suchthat backfilling must take place immediately or when laying small diameter pipelines), it is recommended that the pipeline be tested at regular intervals (sayevery 3 pipes) during construction.9. Backfilling - After inspection and testing backfilling should proceed. The attention given to backfill selection is of great importance. The placing and compactionof inappropriate backfill may cause damage to a new pipeline. The structural strength of the completed pipeline depends as much on good site workmanshipas on the strength of individual pipes. Consequently all backfill material must be selected and placed as detailed in the contract specification or recognised codeof practice.Note: For additional information on laying pipes see the CPSA website.www.concretepipes.co.uk/technicalguides/index.html2.0 M MaxChocksDNNo of layers300 - 375 4450 - 600 3750 - 900 2> 1050 114www.fpmccann.co.ukprecast@fpmccann.co.uk

DN1500 - DN1800 Easi-BaseP18DN 1500 & DN 1800 Precast Concrete Easi-BaseThe Easi-Base range extends to include the larger diameter DN 1500 and DN 1800 concrete manhole bases. Thesebases will accommodate concrete, clay, twin wall and uPVC pipes from DN 150 to DN 900mm.Bases are traditionally constructed manually in-situ using ready mix concrete which is troweled to form the base andbenching. This practice is labour intensive and requires optimum site conditions to achieve a quality result. TheEasi-Base precast alternative removes many of the variable factors in the manual process.Benching and channels are generally pre-formed with concrete. The DN 1500 and DN 1800 units are WRc approvedand offer the same construction benefits as the DN 1200 Easi-Base.PT/279/0109 (Concrete)18www.fpmccann.co.ukprecast@fpmccann.co.uk

DrainageRecommended Site WorkPractice – Manhole ChambersP22Handling & Installing Manholes1. Time and place of off-loading should be agreed before the units arrive at site. The contractor should provide suitableequipment for off-loading. For safety, all chamber sections are delivered chimney fashion.2. Off-loading should take place at the nearest hard road to the point of installation. When off-loaded, units should neverbe stored on their side (on the roll), but should always be laid in the “as installed” position.3. Carefully inspect units during off-loading to verify that products are undamaged and comply with order placed. Noteany discrepancies on the delivery docket.Recommended Lifting EquipmentConstructionTo ensure that the manhole structure is vertical, accurate levellingof the formation or the in-situ concrete foundation is essential.Tongue and groove joints should be installed with the socketfacing upward. Manhole sections fitted with double steps can beused in any depth configuration. However, it is recommended thatthe deepest section of manhole units should be used wheneverpossible in order to minimise the number of joints and costs.Precast cover slabs can be laid directly onto the shaft or chamberrings.To allow for any differential settlement between manhole andpipeline, a flexible joint incorporating short length rocker pipesshould be constructed as close as possible to the outside of themanhole or the concrete surround if used. Extra care must be takento ensure that joints are properly made.JointingPrecast manhole components are provided with joints formedwithin the wall section. These are sealed with cement / sand mortaror with proprietary mastic sealants. Precast concrete manhole units,well jointed, provide an adequate seal under normal conditions.Lifting HoleQty/dia(p/Unit)36mmLifting Pin3.5 t SWL42mmLifting Pin3.5 t SWL3 legLiftingChain 3.1t3x45mm dia √ √3x45mm dia √ √3x45mm dia √ √3x45mm dia √ √3x45mm dia √ √3x45mm dia √ √4 legLiftingChain SWL6.7 t4x50mm dia √ √4x50mm dia √ √4x50mm dia √ √4x50mm dia √ √4x50mm dia √ √4x50mm dia √ √Dia + 5mmReinstatementIn-situ concrete surround to precast concrete manholes is notnecessary as a well constructed precast manhole is a strong durablestructure with its own inherent strength and would only require a surround for exceptional structural reasons. Howeverunder some specifications a concrete surround is required where the depth from ground level to the base of the concretechamber rings, exceeds 4.5m. Such surround should be of 150mm thickness. Backfilling should take place as each precastmanhole section is placed. It must be brought up evenly and compacted around the manhole to prevent displacement.TestingIt is generally unnecessary to apply water tests to manholes. In working conditions manholes are not normally full of water.Prevention of infiltration is of more relevance than ex-filtration. If infiltration does occur it can be seen and remedied bysealing using an appropriate method.Note: When handling precast products on site it is recommended that the contractor has the correct lifting equipment in place andadheres to the relevant lifting guidelines and standards.

DrainageEasi-Safe Fall Arrest SystemP30Award Winning Safety Solution For Manhole ConstructionThe client, consultant engineer, contractors and suppliers all have a duty to mitigate hazards on site wheneverreasonably practicable. One such hazard identified is the risk of operatives falling through manhole openingsparticularly during the construction process and also in follow up maintenance work.Working with partners Severn Trent Water, engineer Grontmij and contractor to the water sector, MorganSindall plc, <strong>FP</strong> <strong>McCann</strong> have designed a safety award winning solution. Easi-Safe is a temporary or permanentfall arrest system that allows for safe working around the manhole opening prior to the fitting of the ironwork.In the construction of a manhole, operatives often work unprotected from the opening at surface level whenthe final stages of completion occur. This includes the final brickwork up to the manhole frame and the mortarbedding of the frame itself.UNPROTECTEDWith most standard cover slabs, the access point for man entry is open and it is left to the contractor to coveron site. In many site situations these openings remain for a number of days while gangs complete phases ofwork. Easi-Safe immediately addresses this problem. The future production of all standard access cover slabswill incorporate the optional protective grid which will remain in the slab even when the final D400 steelcover and frame are set in place at surface level.The galvanised mild steel grid is available in four standard sizes:-610mm x 610mm675mm x 675mm750mm x 600mm1200mm x 675mmThe Easi-Safe grid is seated on load bearing corners cast into a standard range of manhole cover slabs. Asa temporary fall arrest system, once the construction of the manhole is complete, the grid can be removedprior to the fitting of the ironwork. Alternatively, Easi-Safe can be a permanent fixture, left in place beneaththe manhole lid. The spacing between the bars allows for ease of inspection and jetting of the manhole baseduring maintenance work.30www.fpmccann.co.ukprecast@fpmccann.co.uk

DrainageDN 1050 Highway’s Agency CatchpitP34Highways Agency Compliant EPDM flexible seal DN1050 CatchPitPrecast concrete catchpits with the newflexible rubber pipe connector seals can beutilised every 100 metres on a single lanecarriageway, replacing the requirement tocast a base sump in situ and construct thecatchpit from a standard DN1050 manholering.The innovative EPDM 40 flexible rubber sealat the connection points can accommodatepipe sizes DN150 to DN 300, includingDN225. This negates the need to saw cutopenings in the concrete wall and the use ofwet mortar trades to seal the pipe surround.Catchpits are supplied with factory fittedpre-marked EPDM 40 rubber blanks. Theunique rubber blank/seal has pre-formedcutting grooves around the three DN entrysizes indicated. This allows for accuratecutting out to pipe diameter requirement.There is no similar system available inthe market. Once pipes are fitted into theseal, up to 45 degrees of pipe deflection ispermitted without breaking the seal.Can be used in straight through, 90°connection or straight through with across drain.The significant savings are in time, eliminating the need for follow-up finishing gangs.Added safety benefits are keeping operative time in the excavation to a minimum and nopower tools are required to cut concrete. Indirect cost benefits are as a result of saving upto 26 hours of time related to curing of wet trades on a traditional build.Requirements for catch pits are as specified in the MCHW 500 Series Clauses and MCHW3: F Series Drawings. The MCHW clauses call for the catch pit to be in compliance with BSEN 1917 and BS5911. <strong>FP</strong> <strong>McCann</strong> catchpit products are manufactured under BSI Kitemarkapproval to comply with BS EN 1917 and BS 5911 and are therefore fully compliant to HAspecification.Once pipe is fitted to the connector,up to 45° of deflection is possiblewithout breaking the seal.34www.fpmccann.co.ukprecast@fpmccann.co.uk

DrainageEasi-Flow ChamberP36The <strong>FP</strong> <strong>McCann</strong> Easi-Flow chamber combines an integral base and side walls with provision for inlet andoutlet connections. It can be used in a number of applications, including: As a silt-trap As a valve chamber As a flow rate controller (requires installation of a vortex valve unit, sold separately)Sizes availableEasi-Flow chambers are available between DN1200 - DN2400. Bespoke largerunits can be manufactured to client specification.Flow rate control<strong>FP</strong> <strong>McCann</strong> can offer supply of a Hydro-Valve vortex flow control device. TheHydro-Valve is designed to limit storm water outflow to a specific dischargerate. Sizes are available between 1 – 80 l/s depending on head height. Theunit is self activating with no need for an external power source and comeswith a certified flow rate.The Hydro-Valve is a device for controlling storm water flow by hydraulic effectwithout requiring moving parts. At low flow rates, water entering throughthe inlet passes through the vortex chamber to the outlet with no restriction.As flow rate increases water enters through the inlet with enough energy tocreate a vortex in the vortex chamber which results in a considerable pressuredrop between the inlet and the outlet restricting the flow to the allowabledischarge. The Hydro-Valve therefore operates automatically with no moving parts and no external powersource. A typical application of this valve is to control the flow from storm water attenuation tanks preventingdownstream flooding during periods of heavy rainfall.The Hydro-Valves are custom designed to achieve a specified design flow rate at a given head height. Theyare manufactured under an ISO 9001 quality assurance system and are available in sizes compatible with the<strong>FP</strong> <strong>McCann</strong> Easi-Flow chamber range.Hydro-Valve - Customised Specification No moving parts Self activating Self cleansing Manual by-pass Easy installation 3-6 times greater orifice CSA Hydraulic data availableFor more information on Hydro-Valves contact a member of <strong>FP</strong> <strong>McCann</strong>technical sales.*<strong>FP</strong> <strong>McCann</strong> advise not to complete the manhole construction until the JFCflow control device has been positioned correctly inside.36www.fpmccann.co.ukprecast@fpmccann.co.uk

DrainageHandhold & Entry Pole SystemP39SummaryThe handhold entry pole system is suitable for aiding maintenance engineers in the initialentry into a manhole from the surface level. Once fitted, the entry pole is a permanentfitting in the manhole which is stored in the lowered position beneath the level of thecover. When required, the entry pole can be easily extended by simply hooking the easyto reach loop located at the top of the pole, pulling the handle upwards and twist lockinginto position. The handhold then provides a stable support to aid the entrance of themanhole as well as a clear visual indication of the location of the manhole when open.This helps prevent injury of other people in the area. Once the engineer has used theentry pole to aid their return to the surface, the pole is simply twisted to unlock it from theraised position and lowered back into the manhole ready for the next time it is needed.SpecificationThe handhold has a pole length of 1200mm and can be assembled to give three differentdistances from the pole to the wall. This is designed to accommodate different coverpositions.Advantages Helps the user find the first step safely Creates visual aid to indicate location of manhole to other people in the areaEasy to fit Easy to raise and lower High strength for ultimate safety Low cost Can be fitted to any Caswick step Two projections for round or flat walled manholes 39www.fpmccann.co.ukprecast@fpmccann.co.uk

Water ManagementEasi - Storm Attenuation SystemsP44The production of water impermeable surfaces in construction isinevitable. This includes roof areas on buildings, car parks, loadingbays and road pavements. The provisions of these surfaces interruptsthe natural drainage process, creating increased stormwater runoff inrespect of both volume and flow rate.In many cases this increase in stormwater flow and volume is a problemas the local sewer or watercourse does not have the sufficient capacityto cope. This problem could be alleviated by an increase in the sizeof the stormwater sewer or watercourse, thus providing the capacitywithin the drainage system to cope with the increased surface water.This however may be expensive, cause major infrastructure disruption,and may often be completely unfeasible.Legislation under Planning Policy Statement 25 and BuildingRegulations approved Document H3 for flood risk assessment (SUDS),has created the need for planners and developers to design and installeffective storm water management systems.The types of system that can be employed to overcome theseissues are well documented and varied. Quite often, they can bevery technically demanding in their operation, maintenance andconstruction. The selection of a system will depend on site constraints,position, expected loading, geographical limitations and inevitablycost.The Easi-Storm system offers a complete solution to the stormwaterattenuation problem and utilises a tried, tested and approved methodof stormwater storage.

Water ManagementEasi-Hydro SeparatorP45Introduction<strong>FP</strong> <strong>McCann</strong> have designed and developed a new range of Hydrodynamic Separators for the treatmentof urban catchment storm-water runoff. The Easi-Hydro Separator provides a cost effective solution fordesigners, engineers and contractors involved in the provision of sustainable urban drainage systems. TheEasi-Hydro Separator has no moving parts, requires no power and is constructed in precast reinforcedconcrete. All internal components are manufactured in GRP and stainless steel ensuring long asset life.The Easi-Hydro Separator has been independently tested by WRc and total solids removal rates havebeen measured ranging from 85 to 92%. The Easi-Hydro Separator is also effective in the removal ofhydrocarbons, litter and other storm-water debris.OperationThe Easi-Hydro Separator is specifically designed to remove suspended solids, hydrocarbons and floatabledebris from the storm-water runoff. The Easi-Hydro Separator chamber is constructed in precast reinforcedconcrete and supplied complete with a unique, factory installed, GRP flow management module. Thisunique design produces low energy vortex flow patterns allowing the solids to settle to the bottom of thetreatment chamber for subsequent removal. Re-suspension of the solids is minimised by provision of a GRPbaffle plate positioned above the solids storage sump. Floatable debris is retained within the Easi- HydroSeparator and prevented from discharging by a dip outlet pipe and launder channel arrangement.Flows to treatment are controlled by a specially designed launder channel and inlet pipe arrangement.Flows in excess of the maximum treatment flow overflow a weir, bypass the treatment zone and directlydischarge through the outlet pipe. This helps to minimize the effects of scour within the treatmentcompartment and optimises the performance of the unique Easi-Hydro Separator.Easi-Hydro Separator45www.fpmccann.co.ukprecast@fpmccann.co.uk

Shaft Cover and Landing SlabsP54Mix and reinforcementSlab sections are wet cast in fabricated steel moulds and steel cage reinforced. The concrete mix design is to a standardcharacteristic strength of 55N/mm 2 at 28 days. Alternative mixes are available.Design FeaturesDesign and detailing may be undertaken by <strong>FP</strong> <strong>McCann</strong> or to the customers design specification. Reinforced concretecover slabs are generally designed to withstand loads in accordance with the recommendations of British Standard5400:Part 2 & BD37/01, generally 30 units of Type HB loading, together with the load assoicated with overburden.Cover slabs can be designed to withstand 45 units of Type HB loading, or loading specific to contract. In non-traffickedareas, the slabs may be designed for notional superimposed loads. Landing slabs are designed to an imposed load of5kN/m2.Lifting and HandlingDepending on lifting requirements on site, <strong>FP</strong> <strong>McCann</strong> are able to supply fitted lifting loops or cast in sockets andspherical head lifting anchors.Quality standardsShaft Cover Slabs and Landing Slabs are manufactured in accordancewith <strong>FP</strong> <strong>McCann</strong>’s quality management system, BSI accredited to BSEN 9001.Key Features and BenefitsNo formwork or ready mixed concrete requiredSimple jointing systemSpeedy installationBespoke design and casting serviceTechnical advice and support54www.fpmccann.co.ukprecast@fpmccann.co.uk


Caisson UnitsP55<strong>FP</strong> <strong>McCann</strong> manufactures a range of reinforcing units suitable for sinking by the caisson method. Caisson shaftunits can be supplied with diameters of 2100mm up to 4000mm. Caissons are manufactured in accordance withthe requirements of BS EN 1917, and have Kitemark certification where relevant to the scope of BS5911 (2100mm –3000mm diameters). However 3600mm and 4000mm diameters remain operative within the scope of the ISO9001accredited Quality Management System.Open caisson-sinking techniques permit a shaft structure to be progressively sunk, either under its own weight orwith the aid of caisson jacks, in a controlled manner from the surface to a predetermined depth. Caisson shafts areconstructed using a metal cutter ring and base section with rings being added on top as excavation proceeds. Thetechnique is suited to shaft construction through weak soils, high-plasticity clays, silts, sands and gravels; particularlybelow the water table.<strong>FP</strong> <strong>McCann</strong> Caisson RangeCaissons ShaftsDNAvailable Depths (mm) Barrel DN Wall Thickness Lifting Holemm 1000 750 500 mm mm Qty per unit2100 √ √ √ 2350 1252400 √ √ √ 2680 1402700 √ √ √ 3000 1503000 √ √ √ 3360 1803600 √ √ √ 3970 1854000* √ √ X 4400 200*DN4000 supplied as a two piece unit.3 No. RD24Wavy Tail Inserts3 No. RD30Wavy Tail Inserts3 No. RD30 WavyTail Inserts3 No. RD30 WavyTail Inserts3 No. RD30 WavyTail Inserts4 No. RD36 WavyTail Inserts55www.fpmccann.co.ukprecast@fpmccann.co.uk
