Key Issue Statement: Fire-Resilient Infrastructure
Fire poses one of the costliest and most dangerous of all disasters affecting every region of the United States. Engineers must carefully plan fire-resilient infrastructure for the safety and future survival of their communities, in the same way they do for above ground structures and dwellings. Unlike other products used for pipeline infrastructure, concrete is inherently fire-resistant. Concrete pipe provides the safest, and most fire-resilient solution for infrastructure projects.
