Evaluation of High Density Polyethylene (HDPE) Pipes K-66 Cherokee County
The purpose of this project was to install several sections of high density polyethylene (HDPE) pipe for initial and long-term evaluation. Three sections of pipe were installed. Two sections of 24-inch diameter and one section of 30-inch diameter pipe were installed during the reconstruction of K-66 between Riverton and Galena, Kansas. The pipes were inspected for damage due to construction and measured for deflections shortly after installation and then intermittently for the next 25 years.
