[0004] The construction method of the socket-and-spigot compression-fit pipe of this structure is as follows: insert the pipe 4 into the gap 3 between the socket pipe 12 and the compression-fit pipe 22, continue to penetrate until the end of the pipe 4 abuts against the connection between the compression pipe 21 and the socket pipe 12, then inject sealant, such as anaerobic glue or AB glue, into the gap 3, and finally use a clamping or ring pressing tool to lock the compression-fit pipe 22 and press it tightly according to the specified pressure.
