What is a concrete sectional?

• A. A grave liner consisting of six or eight slabs of unfinished concrete placed around the casket.
• B. A container made of corrugated cardboard used for shipping.
• C. A casket interior lining piece.
• D. A metal component for handles.

Answer: (A)

A concrete sectional is a type of grave liner made from multiple unfinished concrete slabs that are assembled around the casket—typically six or eight pieces. This setup provides a protective liner for the grave, helping to prevent the soil from caving in and defining the burial space without being a sealed vault. It’s distinct from shipping cartons (cardboard), interior lining pieces (fabric padding inside the casket), or metal handle components.
