GRP pipe Storage and Common mistakes 💥👌 🔻The pipes should always be stored on an even surface (Fig. 7), free of rocks and other potentially damaging debris. 🔻The materials must not be subject to intense heat, flames, solvents, etc. Pipes must also be protected from mechanical damage and point loads (Fig. 8-10). 🔻Pipes shall be protected against vandalism and access by third parties, as well as against damage and displacement. If pipes are subsequently stacked, the acceptable stacking height depends on the soil conditions as well as the loading and safety equipment on site (see Table 1). 🔻Wooden beams must be placed under the bottom layer of pipes to avoid siltation due to rainwater draining and to prevent the pipes from freezing to the ground. Stacking heights above 3 m are not recommended on construction sites to prevent accidents. 🔻The pipes must be secured in position with the help of wooden beams and wedges
