This study investigated the potential benefits of re-rounding of thermoplastic pipe, a process for

reducing the deflection of installed pipes by drawing a vibrating mandrel through the pipe. A survey of

state DOTs revealed that practice is used rarely, if ever, and the literature on the topic is very sparse,

limited to reports on vendor demonstrations. Two contractors were contacted and results of the

interviews are included. A plan for a detailed study under controlled conditions and in the field is

presented.
