PLASTIC SPIRALLY WOUND TUBES AS A METHOD OF LINING PIPES OR HOLES --NO-DIG 87. 2ND INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE AND EXHIBITION ON TRENCHLESS CONSTRUCTION FOR UTILITIES, APRIL 14-16, 1987 (INTERNATIONAL SOCIETY FOR TRENCHLESS TECHNOLOGY)

This article describes a technique using plastic tubing for relining sewers in situ. An extruded plastic lining with interlocking edges is wound onto large spools, which are then transported to where a sewer is to be refurbished, and the lining is fed down manholes and the like to a specially designed winding machine, which in turn winds the profile into a tube, directly into a sewer pipe. The spirally wound tube, after it exits, is then enlarged until the tube is intimately in contact with the pipe in need of repair. For the covering abstract of the conference see IRRD 815134.
