SEWERAGE REHABILITATION MANUAL

This loose leaf manual provides guidelines and procedures for improving the hydraulic and structural performance of the existing UK sewerage network. The methodology will also have overseas applications. It sets out a strategy based on the fact that as most of the current expenditure is concentrated in a small part of the overall network, improved and extended methods of investigation and planning should be directed at these "critical" sewers. The manual is in three sections (volumes), as follows: I A Rational Approach. The recommended procedures and implementation issues are outlined. The background and information leading to this approach to sewerage rehabilitation are summarised. II Planning. The various phases of investigation and planning are set out in detail. These include: identification of critical sewers and planning of subsequent investigations, inspection of critical sewers, assessment of hydraulic performance, development of a drainage area plan, long term monitoring. III Sewer Renovation. Chapters are included on: renovation design procedure, sewer lining materials, structural design, requirements and checks, grouting materials, contract documentation, installation, lateral connections to non man entry sewers. Appendices include: established renovation techniques--stabilisation, lining and in situ coating. Developing renovation techniques--sovereign sewers (Acell), Dunlop, the Ruswroe process, polyolefin pipes in short sections, spray on linings, localised repair, moling. Examples and case histories are given. (TRRL)
