On August 31st and September 1st, 2000, WisDOT participated in the installation of two different large diameter (48 in.) High Density Polyethylene Culver Pipes (HDPE) on a low volume county trunk highway in Northwestern Wisconsin in an effort to monitor/test performance issues of these experimental products in a wet, freeze/thaw climate with acidic water conditions. This was a twin pipe installation that replaced a 54 in. corrugated metal culvert pipe that had deteriorated on the bottom due to the acidic water in this particular area. Currently, WisDOT allows up to 36 in. HDPE pipe for culvert installations and was interested in seeing how these large diameter HDPE pipes performed with time and low volume loadings.
