Manholes
•Belowground sanitary and stormwater sewer
piping require access openings by means of
a manhole at certain intervals to allow for
access, connection points, and
change-in-direction points. The manhole is a
belowground round or square structure
made of precast concrete that allows sewer
piping connections near the bottom of the
manhole structure. At the street level, an
iron access cover (often referred to as a
“manhole cover”) is placed to permit access.
Stormwater manhole: This manhole is used
on storm-water sewer lines for the
conveyance of rainwater. The storm sewer
manhole is generally characterized by a
larger size, which is dictated by the sewer
pipe connection sizes and orientations. Sizes
of storm sewer manholes can range from
48” to 120” in diameter and will vary in
depth according the depth of the storm
sewer piping.
