Educational Objectives:
This session will provide attendees with practical, applicable knowledge for collection system asset management, including:
- Collection system maintenance planning: How trenchless inspection and cleaning data (CCTV, sonar/laser profiling) inform proactive maintenance scheduling, and how condition assessment findings translate into recommended inspection frequencies for gravity sewer mains and manholes based on age, material, and criticality.
- Manhole rehabilitation technologies: An overview of manhole lining and coating systems (cementitious, epoxy, polyurethane/polyurea, and structural liner options), how each addresses corrosion, infiltration, and structural deterioration, and the factors utilities should weigh when selecting a lining method for a given manhole condition.
- Trenchless pipe rehabilitation methods: How CIPP lining, pipe bursting, and related products fit into a utility's renewal toolkit as alternatives to open-cut replacement, along with material and installation considerations relevant to specification and procurement.
