TIP METHOD WITH BURSTFORM Long pipe liner
Feb 16, 2011
Repair
The renewal of sewage pipes with the TIP method through a manhole has been extended by a further technically advanced variation.
- Applicable with existing pipes, therefore especially recommended in inner-city areas.
- Minimal jobsite set-up due to small target pit requiring only space for pipe sole + working area.
- One central target pit for two pipe lengths inserted in opposite directions, each over 100 m lengths.
- No road-blocks, no traffic diversions or bottlenecks.
- No trouble with local residents and commercial premises.
- No excavation, no road disruption and no road repair work.
- Cost saving due to short construction times and reduction of civil engineering works.
- Installation of new sewage pipes as a long pipe: trenchless and socketless.
- Pipe installation generally from starting manhole Ø 1 m into a target pit up to 100 m away.
- For pipe material/pipe Ø PE 100 RC from OD 192, 242 and OD 292.
- The pipes are transformed mechanically and vertically above the manhole and guided into the old pipe.
- The plastic pipe is brought back into its original circular form before entering the old pipe and pulled in Tight in Pipe.
- Tight-In-Pipe means only a slight reduction in the cross-sectional area. The hydraulic pipe performance remains intact.
- The material characteristics of the new plastic pipe are not affected by the forming process.
- The pipe installation is also possible using the pipe bursting method thus the new pipe can be size for size or even larger than the old pipe.
- House connections can be connected underground.
- Short construction times.
- No personnel required in the manhole during the pulling-in process.
