On Demand Underground infrastructure must meet exacting performance demands, starting with the right materials. This webinar explores how cutting-edge material science is driving stronger, lighter, and more sustainable solutions for subsurface environments.

Experts will share how advanced composites are engineered to meet ANSI/SCTE 77 tier ratings, ensuring proven strength, load capacity, and long-term reliability. You’ll also see how these innovations outperform traditional materials in corrosion resistance, UV stability, and environmental impact, helping projects meet both performance specifications and sustainability goals.

Discover how science, standards, and sustainability intersect to shape the next generation of underground communications, energy, and water systems.

Learning Objectives:

• Understand how tier ratings and performance standards shape material choice in underground applications.
• Recognize the durability, safety, and sustainability challenges unique to subsurface environments.
• Evaluate how innovative materials compare to traditional concrete and metals in lifecycle performance and environmental footprint.
• See how advances in material science are influencing the design, manufacture, and installation of underground systems.
