Starting shaft Pulling-in a studded liner of this dimension requires the creation of a starting shaft (in this case, the downstream manhole). For the measures described here, the throat of the manhole is removed and replaced by an excavation. The lower part of the manhole remains to a depth of approximately 2.00 m. Access is by ladders. Important: Depending on the properties of the soil (un-stable soil) and the depth of the excavation (> 1.25 m) it …

Preparing measures First nozzles are installed in the Preliner at both ends of the section to be renovated for filling and venting during the grouting process. For this purpose, the openings are marked, cut out and roughened for welding with an angle grinder. Welding is carried out with an extrusion welder.

Testing during grouting In order to take samples and for regular control of the TROLINING® injector grout and for protocolling the injector grouting process, sample bottles are labelled and measured. The following are also required to make a record of the injector grouting process: - Scale,
- Timing funnel,
- Stopwatch,
- Thermometer,
- Pocket calculator and
- Report form.
At intervals of 10-15 min, the following properties of the injector grout material are tested …
|
|
Grouting First the first mixing unit is put into operation and the addition of water is regulated (ca. 3.6 t cement to 1.5 m3 water) until the injector grout comes out of the hose in a watery consistency. When the consistency is correct, a sample is taken and viscosity, density as well as temperature are determined. If the material does not satisfy the conditions, then the process is repeated. The testing of the second mixing unit is carried out …

Recreating of the branch connections Because of the size of the sewer, the reconnection of the laterals is carried out from the inside. The positions of laterals were measured in the preliminary work, so that the positions in the renovated sewer can be drawn by a marker. A hole is made in the liner at the marked position with a hammer and pointed chisel in order to check whether the lateral is indeed at the indicated position. The approximate position …

|
Manhole connection The liner is first cut back, e.g. the part of the liner projecting into the manhole is cut back flush with the manhole wall using an angle grinder (here driven by compressed air). Because of the large amount of dust, a respirator and protective goggles must be worn. The injector grout directly at the cutting edge is removed so that the stud hose and the Preliner can be better welded together. | | | | | (Image: Cutting back the liner - … |

The replacement of the manhole on this site was carried out by the Hans Brochier GmbH & Co, Nuremberg. For this purpose, an even base was bricked up on the lower part of the shaft. The replacement of the manhole was carried out with prefabricated concrete elements. Finally the road surface was replaced.
