Reinforced Concrete Cement Pipes

hese pipes are made from cement, sand, metal stone and mild steel rods which are used as reinforcement for increasing strength. The pipes are used to carry drinking as well as irrigation water. They are also used for drainage and sewerage systems in road and building constructions. The pipes are replacing canals for carrying water to fields which reduces loss of water due to seepage and evaporation.
