Underground pipe gallery丨Protect underground arteries and help build smart cities
2024-04-10
"This year we will continue to intensify the renovation of the city's old pipe networks such as gas, water supply, sewage and heating, and plan to rebuild
more than 100,000 kilometers this year." - Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development
01The aging urban “capillaries”
At present, the length of domestic pipeline network has reached 3.49 million kilometers. Behind the numbers is a huge underground pipeline network.
They are like the capillaries of the city, maintaining the normal operation of the city. However, the inevitable aging problem of pipelines
makes them a "pain point" in the process of urbanization construction and transformation.
02 Transform the city’s “capillaries” into “underground arteries”
Underground comprehensive pipe corridors refer to public tunnels used for the centralized laying of municipal pipelines such as electricity,
communications, radio and television, water supply, drainage, heat, and gas underground in cities.
Moving pipelines underground can effectively solve urban problems such as "road zippers" and "aerial spider webs".
It can not only improve the aesthetics of the city, but also reduce the impact of disasters when force majeure disasters strike. In addition,
the underground comprehensive pipe gallery integrates the laying of municipal pipelines such as water, electricity and heating networks to solve the maintenance
and repair problems of facilities in one stop.
03 ERA underground pipe gallery construction case
Xiongan New District Xiongan New District is a typical case of ERA’s construction of underground comprehensive pipeline corridors
Xiongan New Area has planned a total of 380 kilometers of two-level comprehensive pipeline corridors, "trunk lines and branch lines",
and 136 kilometers of new pipeline corridors have been built.
Xiongan New Area has integrated a series of products such as ERA HDPE water supply and drainage pipes, ERA HDPE gas pipes,
and ERA PP rectangular cable pipes into the "lifeline" of the entire city, achieving gridded underground pipe gallery systems,
flexible space, and intelligent operation.
Meizhou Jiangnan New Town
Meizhou Jiangnan New City Underground Comprehensive Pipe Gallery is the first project in Guangdong Province
to organically combine the pipe gallery with the "sponge city" concept.
ERA PE structural wall pipes (PE double-wall corrugated pipes) are used to pioneer the integration of sewage
and rainwater drainage pipes into the comprehensive pipe corridor, leaving sufficient margin for the industrial sewage discharge
in the industrial park planned in the future.
In addition to Xiongan New Area and Meizhou Jiangnan New City, ERA has participated in pipe gallery projects in many cities such as
Shanghai Songjiang Comprehensive Pipe Gallery, Hangzhou Asian Games Village Underground Comprehensive Pipe Gallery, and Taizhou Comprehensive Pipe Gallery.
The underground comprehensive pipe corridor is the foundation for future urban operation. ERA protects the "underground lifeline"
and gives the city visible security in invisible places. In the future, ERA will continue to develop the pipe network,
complete the transformation of more cities to modernize the pipe network, and assist in the construction of the Internet of Things in smart cities.
