I would like to ask fellow sailors why gravel is laid under the pipe galleries in petrochemical plants. Thank you!

We have lawns; it’s easy to check whether there are stones or if any materials have leaked out

Our utility tunnels are all installed at a relatively high height. :lol

It is primarily designed to meet fire protection requirements in case of material leakage.

Is it also possible to carry out cement hardening?
Reply #62017-05-30
There’s no need to harden the cement; the cost is higher than just using gravel
Reply #72017-05-30
Material leaks are easy to collect; there’s no need for investment in hardening
Reply #82017-05-30
It prevents weeds from growing and also facilitates leak handling
