Between February and April 2023 UNITRACC is offering a free course on “Trench Protection and Pipe Installation” with the possibility of getting a BAMI-I certificate or a DWA confirmation of attendance.
Summary of the course
The most common method utilized worldwide for pipeline installation is the open cut method. This is especially true for gravity pipelines. While, at first glance, the open cut method seems to be a „simple“ construction method, it becomes highly complex when used in urban areas and at large depths.
This course is structured in two parts:
The first part (“Trench Protection”) is focused on important technical knowledge on securing the trench and making it a safe work zone. It presents t many options available in this regard.
The second part (“Pipe Installation”) is focused on the correct pipeline installation techniques including backfilling of the trench and the removal of the shoring.
The net learning time is approx. 3 days. No purchase necessary. Please register on UNITRACC for this offer or log in with your existing account.

This course features elements relevant to amongst others the European continent.
