The profile deformation measurement is not only used for damage assessment but also provides essential information for the planning of renovation measures, e.g. in the form of "CIPP - cured-in-place pipes" for the fabrication of CIPP liners. By adapting the ordering dimensions of the liners to the real maximum and minimum profile dimensions over the entire length of the respective pipe, liners can be manufactured whose elongation behavior …

Modules

This module gives an overview of methods of inspection from the inside for quantitative condition assessment. It is to be understood as a supplement to the module "Optical inspection from the inside for qualitative condition recording" and thus belongs in terms of content to the topic block "INVESTIGATION", the first of the four basic activities within the framework of the integral urban drainage management according to EN 752. The procedures presented here provide an essential basis for the assessment of the performance of the drain and sewer system or for developing the rehabilitation plan.

After completing this module, you will have a sound knowledge of:

  • Areas of application and
  • Methods of quantitative condition assessment.

Kwik-ZIP centraliser and spacer systems are solving challenges in trenchless pipe installations across Australia and worldwide. Late in 2022, Sydney Water and the West Region Delivery Team (WRDT) contracted Quickway for a water mains installation project. Quickway specialises in transport and utility infrastructure, having completed many projects around Australia. The project was centred on Elizabeth Drive in Badgerys Creek, a western Sydney suburb. The water main needed slip-lining of an 813 mm outer diameter (mm OD) carrier pipe.

The installation method (jetting, insertion into boreholes, etc.) for the well-points is highly dependent on the subsoil conditions. The pictures show well-points in the form of self-jetting well-point. The self-jetting well-points are installed using high-pressure water supplied to the top of the riser pipe from a water jetting pump. At the tip of the self-jetting well-point below the wellpoint screen, there is a hollow jetting shoe. Near the lower …

A calibration roller system is used to evenly distribute resin in the liners used in CIPP repairs. It works by feeding the liner onto a roller while the resin simultaneously fills the liner. This process is known as the “wet-out” stage of CIPP rehabilitation. While the new manual and electric rollers from PRT both fulfill this purpose, they operate in slightly different ways.

Awarded more than £700,000 from the Water Breakthrough Challenge Catalyst Stream, Treatment-to-Tap seeks an industry watershed by supplementing a tech rollout with collaborative data analysis and behavioural science to build trust in tap water.

The leak tightness test in the laboratory is used to check whether the cured composite of the CIPP liner is leak tight and does not contain any defects (according to APS test guideline, ZTV material test, DWA-A 143-3).

Leak tightness test (with water):

  • Cut into internal membrane, if not an integral part of the CIPP liner; remove external membrane, if present
  • Apply test medium (red coloured water) to the inside of the sample
  • Apply 0.5 bar negative …

The damaged areas repaired by robot systems must be permanently tight, stable and resistant to the physical, chemical, biological and biochemical attacks to be expected in the respective section in accordance with the generally accepted rules of technology.

In order to guarantee these requirements, in addition to professional planning, execution and implementation of the repair work using robots, appropriate quality assurance is also necessary [DWAM143-…

Prior to the use of injection systems, the repair area must be milled to create a sufficient adhesive bond. The principle illustrations show the required milling patterns for a connection with and without CIPP-liner.
