La durée de vie des ponceaux en tuyau de tôle ondulée galvanisée (TTOG) s'est révélée inférieure à 40 ans, telle qu'elle avait été estimée initialement. Pourtant, le ministère des Transports du Québec possède plus de 22 000 ponceaux en TTOG, dont certains sont enfouis sous un fort remblai. Le changement d'un ponceau en TTOG ,enfoui sous un remblai coûte parfois quelques centaines de milliers de dollars, sans compter le coût social, car généralement ce genre de travail nécessite l'aménagement d'une voie de déviation. 5, record 4, French, - tuyau%20de%20t%C3%B4le%20ondul%C3%A9e%20galvanis%C3%A9e
