How high a fill will the pipe take?
Refer to ADS Technical Note 2.01: Minimum and Maximum Burial Depth for Corrugated HDPE Pipe. Greater fill heights for all pipes are possible provided attention is given to backfill materials and compaction. Research studies have successfully installed both singlewall and N-12 pipe in cover heights of 100 feet. For fills exceeding ADS recommendations, contact an ADS representative to review site specific data.
