Trenchless technology piping: installation and inspection

Trenchless Technology Piping offers comprehensive coverage of pipe installation, renewal, and replacement using trenchless technology methods. This step-by-step resource explains how to implement efficient design, construction, and inspection processes and shows how to save time and money with a state-of-the-art project management system.

Packed with detailed illustrations, the book surveys the wide variety of trenchless technologies available and discusses the recommended applications for each. This cutting-edge engineering tool also contains vital information on contracting, project delivery, safety, quality control, and quality assurance.

Trenchless technology piping: installation and inspection Coverage includes:

1. Trenchless technology methods for new pipe installations and old pipe linings and replacements
   Pipeline planning and design
2. Pipe behavior under soil and traffic loads
3. Details on different types of pipes, such as concrete, plastic, PVC, HDPE, GRP, and metallic
4. Design and project management considerations for horizontal directional drilling (HDD)
5. Trenchless replacement systems, including pipe bursting and pipe removal methods
6. Construction and inspection requirements for cured-in-place pipe (CIPP)
7. Design and construction considerations for pipe jacking and micro-tunneling methods
8. Quality assurance, quality control, inspection, and safety

The main idea for this book came from a series of trenchless technology operator and inspector training schools the author has offered since 1998. The need for proper planning and partnering among owners, engineers, and contractors in design, contract and project execution is especially critical in trenchless technology projects where many uncertainties are involved. However, development of new equipment and methods and increased level of equipment sophistication and capabilities is not a substitute for experience and training of operators and field personnel, even it has increased this need. A safe and successful trenchless project depends on skills, training, and experience of operators, field personnel, and project inspectors.
