In order to receive real time data from the pulling head, a data cable must be inserted ahead of the new pipe and connected to a computer. Otherwise, the data can only be collected after the completion of the pulling-in of the new pipe. (Image: Tension sensor) |

As a reference, the following table shows the allowable tensile forces for PE 100 pipes for a load duration of 30 minutes (according to the German DVGW working sheet GW 323: Trenchless replacement of gas and water supply pipelines with pipe bursting; Requirements, quality assurance and inspections / not available in English at present). (Table: Allowable tensile forces for PE 100 pipes under a 30 min load) |

The rupture strength of HDPE pipes is 2.5 times the allowable tensile strength [DVGWGW323]. The cross sectional area of a pipe section used as overload protection may only amount to 40 % of the cross sectional area of the new pipe being pulled in.

A cross section reduction is obtained by reducing the effective circumference of the pipe or the effective cross-sectional area. (Image: Overload protection in form of a predetermined breaking point by reduction of the effective pipe circumference) (Table: Overload protection) |

During gallery techniques or heading, the sewer or pipeline to be replaced is exposed, with the provision of a temporary protection, dismantled and replaced by a new one. The removal of the soil and the sewer or pipeline to be replaced is carried out manually with the aid of appropriate tools or machines e.g. excavators. Support arches of steel rods or special steel profiles that are placed into the gallery cross-section provide temporary support. … |
