A modular pipe and a method of installing the pipe uses a first pipe section positioned in end to end relation with a second pipe section, the first and second pipe sections being precast from a cement-based material, wherein each pipe section has an outer surface, a flow passage, a first end, and a second end. Each end has a connection profile, an axis, and an end face that is perpendicular to the axis. A collar surrounds and secures the connection between adjacent ends. The collar is constructed from a plurality of collar elements. Each collar element overlaps the pipe connection and engages the connection profile along a portion of the perimeter of each of the first end of the second pipe section and the second end of the first pipe section.
