In several tests, the IKT - Institute for Underground Infrastructure has proven that the monolithic manhole base made of acid-resistant high-performance concrete from the Betonwerk Bieren concrete plant is at least as efficient as a clinker manhole base.

The investigation program included: The determination of the wear resistance of the monolithic acid-resistant high-performance concrete hardened in the mold as well as the manually made clinker channel in accordance with DIN EN 295-3; the test and evaluation of the resistance to biogenic sulphuric acid attacks in accordance with DIN 19573,...
