Culvert Bridges: The optimum combination of strength, flexibility and performance

Canadian corrugated steel pipe products are available in a variety of sizes, corrugation profiles, thicknesses and coatings to suit virtually any application - stormwater, highway construction, railway, mining and forestry challenges. We manufacture a complete range of pipe systems to handle every need and budget:

The optimum combination of strength, flexibility and performance

Corrugated Steel Pipe (CSP) is the material of choice for Culvert Bridge projects. It will not crack under impact loads or vibrations due to the inherent strength of steel and the flexibility of the corrugated pipe section. The high ring compression of the pipe absorbs and transfers the load to the surrounding soil around the entire circumference. The beam strength maintains the grade and line of the structure by bridging inequalities of the trench bottom and side fill.
