A pipe joint and elongated cementitious pipe is formed by joining abutting ends of adjacent pipe sections with a fiber reinforced composite material without the need for the pipe sections to have other connection means, such as the standard bell and spigot end connections. Also disclosed is a cementitious pipe including at least two cementitious pipe sections having ends that are joined together with a fiber reinforced polymer composite material. The cementitious pipe sections and resulting cementitious pipe may have a substantially uniform wall thickness and substantially uniform inner and outer diameters near the opposite ends of the pipe sections. Also provided is a method for joining cementitious pipe sections with a fiber reinforced composite material to manufacture an elongated cementitious pipe, such as an elongated concrete pipe.
A cementitious pipe comprising:
