Economical, strong and versatile cellular bin-typeretaining wall or abutment system

Te AIL Bolt-A-BinSystem is a metal bin-type of retaining

wall system available in a variety of bin sizes for both vertical

and battered applications. Te cells are formed from strong,

corrugated metal components bolted together at the job site

and then filled with granular material. Te fill material and the

metal shell act as a gravity retaining wall to resist surcharged

loading, sliding, and overturning of the earth behind the wall.

Assembly can be done quickly with no pile driving or concrete

pouring, making it well-suited for use in remote areas.

Lightweight, easy to install and ideal for remote areas

Pipe

Corrugated Steel PipeAvailable in a variety of sizes, corrugation profiles,thicknesses and coatings to suit virtually any application

Corrugated Steel Pipe (CSP) is the material of choice for

todays infrastructure projects because it offers the optimum

combination of strength, flexibility and performance. It will

not crack under impact loads or vibrations due to the inherent

strength of steel and the flexibility of the corrugated pipe

section. Te high ring compression of the pipe absorbs and

transfers the load to the surrounding soil around the entire

circumference. Te beam strength maintains the grade and lineof the structure by bridging inequalities of the trench bottom

and side fill.

AIL has been providing innovative corrugated pipe solutions for over 40 years.

Polymer-LaminatedService life of 100 + yearsGalvanizedtandard service life AluminizedService life of 75 years

610 Galvanized Steel is the standard finish for all Corrugated

eel Pipe (CSP) and performs well in low-abrasion conditions.

his continuous galvanized coating is applied under strict quality

ontrol procedures to provide excellent bonding to the steel. Its

ot-dip-zinc coating is reactive to water environments and is

ositively affected by higher levels of Calcium Carbonate CaCO3

ardness) in the water, which can actually increase service life

s calcium is attracted to the galvanized surface and forms an

dditional protective mineral scale.

For more corrosive environments, Aluminized Type 2 coating offers

the superior corrosion resistance and surface characteristics of

aluminum with the strength and economy of steel. In this process,

a commercially pure aluminum coating is uniformly applied to

both sides of the steel, forming a strong bond between the metals.

A hard aluminum-iron alloy layer, just below the aluminum

coating, provides further protection. Aluminized Type 2 CSP can

provide a 75-year service life in a low-abrasion environment with

pH between 5 and 9 and resistivity above 1,500 ohm-cm. CaCO3

(hardness) levels do not affect service life.

Polymer Laminate is a tough, heavy-gauge film that is lami

to both sides of galvanized steel to produce a corrosion and

abrasion barrier for the most aggressive environments. Poly

Laminated CSP will stand up to high concentrations of acids

alkalis and extend the environmental limits and life expecta

where traditional galvanized CSP can be used. Polymer-Lam

CSP performs well in both corrosive and moderate abrasion

environments and provides a service life beyond 100 years i

between 5 and 9 and resistivity is above 1,500 ohm-cm. Se

life is not affected by the CaCO3(hardness) level of water.


22/280

Aluminum PipeSuperior corrosion/abrasion resistance

for harsh environmentsAILs Corrugated Aluminum Pipe products have a long

history of proven performance with predictable service

life expectancies of over 75 years when installed in the

recommended soil/water environment. It features an

aluminum alloy core clad on both sides with alloy 7072

which is anodic to the core alloy protecting it both

physically and electrochemically against corrosion and

abrasion. Tis combination takes full advantage of the

protective oxide film that re-forms immediately if the

surface is scratched. AILs Aluminum Corrugated Pipe is

available in the same profiles and with the same fittings

and accessories as our Corrugated Steel Pipe.

Standard and Special FittingsStandard CSP fittings such as tees, elbows, wyes, reducers

and saddle branches are offered for the full range of pipe

sizes to meet any normal design criteria. In addition to

the standard line of CSP fittings, special fittings including

manholes and catch basins are also readily available and

can be fabricated for special applications.

AIL pipe features universal annular corrugated ends, so a

variety of couplings may be used for the Pipe and Pipe-

Arch. wo types of couplers are recommended:

Standard Annular Corrugated Coupler:Te standardannular corrugated coupler, fitted with bolt and angle

attachments, seats snugly onto the pipe-end corrugations,

and is suitable for most general-purpose applications.

Dimpled Coupling Band:Tis coupler is used where

helical and/or annular corrugated pipe ends are to be

coupled. Dimpled couplers are available with steel angles

or with wedge connectors.
