66040 - Demonstration of Innovative Water Main Rehabilitation

Demonstration of Innovative Water Main Rehabilitation

Status :	Completed
Contract Number:	66040
Time Period:	Jan 1996 - Sep 1998
Principal Investigator :	R. Sterling
Co-Investigator:	P. Hadala

Sponsored by:	American Water Works Association Research Foundation (AWWARF)
	In this project, the TTC is a partner with Roy F. Weston, Inc. The TTC was particularly involved in the monitoring and analysis of vibrations and ground movements associated with the use of pipe bursting for water main replacement.

Objectives:

to demonstrate and evaluate various trenchless technologies as alternatives to open-trench rehabilitation and replacement of water mains
to identify conditions under which each technology can best be applied under North American conditions
