The Perfect Solution for Passing Pipes


Through Walls

Old Practice
The normal procedure for passing pipes through walls
is to leave a substantial cut-out in the wall during the original
concrete pouring process. Later, the contractor will pass
a ‘puddle pipe’ through the cut-out, and build an intricate
‘letter-box’ shutter around it. New concrete is then poured
into the void to encapsulate the puddle pipe. Not only
is this a time consuming process, but very often the

rigidly between the shutters, the ‘boxing out’ process is
eliminated. This means that pouring the wall is a simplified
and is a single step process. It also guarantees that leak
paths, which are inevitably set up when new concrete is
poured onto old, are completely eliminated.

Using a standard Type 1 Viking Johnson wall coupling gives


a versatile coupling either side of the wall where pipes can
either be passed through or inserted into each side. This
system allows for misalignment or angular deflection of up
to 3º on each side of the wall. In addition, the use of a
Viking Johnson wall coupling ensures that, on the outside of
the structure, the first ‘rocker’ or settlement coupling is built
into the shear face of the wall – exactly where it is required.
It also means that only one further versatile coupling is needed
to form the settlement ‘rocker’ instead of two. Consequently
the installed cost can be drastically reduced, particularly
where a large number of through the wall joints appear on a
building, for instance in a gravity treatment works.

Approvals
All products are designed and manufactured under quality
management systems certified to ISO 9001 and conform
to the American Water Works Association’s specification
AWWA/ANSI C219 for bolted couplings.

Customer Benefits

➤➤ Straightforward for Civil Contractor to position the pipe. ➤➤ Ensures good bond between wall and pipe.

➤➤ Easy to secure and prevent movement of the pipe work. ➤➤ Installed cost can be drastically reduced particularly where a
large number of through the wall joints appear on a structure
➤➤ Large formwork panels can be reused as there is no need to

make holes in the shuttering.

➤➤ No need for a contractor to come back and cast in pipes or


‘make good’ the wall surface after casting pipes.
