The engineering of infrastructure is ever-changing. Line sections are downsized or abandoned and re-routed. Flowable fill is an economical and reliable solution when faced with these issues. We have seen various flowable fill mixes in each county and town, but the most common flowable fill has yields with a compressive strength of 125 psi at
Cementitious Storm Sewer Relining is a popular method for CMP storm sewer pipes. Aging infrastructure has recently come to the forefront as pipes deteriorate across the country at the bottom inverts. Storm sewer pipes are large in diameter and about 100 feet in length. Due to their size, excavating, replacing, or relining line sections with
Full-Length Relining is performed using Cured-in-Place (CIPP) [link to Short CIPP service page] methods with Polyurethane, Polypropylene, Fiberglass materials, or Cementitious materials. Trenchless CIPP is a popular method to repair short and long runs of pipe that do not require upsizing. Standard Pipe Services (SPS) has an exceptional resume of success in performing full-length lining
The first step in CIPP is identifying the problem areas of the pipe. After damages are assessed and verified, there are a few ways to address the problem. Conventional methods dictate point repair excavations to replace damaged sections of pipe. However, standard Pipe Services opts to utilize trenchless techniques by inserting a Cured-In-Place (CIPP) patch
There are 20 million manholes in the U.S. and thousands of manholes throughout Delaware (45,000 in New Castle alone). Still, we don’t give them much thought until there is a problem. Manholes have existed since before the Civil War and have seen the evolution of the streets around them from brick to pavement. Inspections
A lateral is a pipe that carries water (waste or otherwise) from homes and businesses to and from the city grid. Lining lateral pipes in repair and maintenance cycles is central to restoring optimal flow. Lateral Lining can be performed utilizing steamed cured resins, or ambient cured resins based on the type of situation we
Chemical Grouting is the oldest and is still recognized as the best method to transform an obstructed groundwater infiltration network into a structurally sound sewer system. Chemical grouting stands out in today’s market for its versatility and years of proven success. Chemical Grout is quickly injected through leaking joints, faults, cracks, breaks, and lateral connections
Trenchless slip-lining has been well-established (since the 1940s) as the most cost-effective method for extensive and large pipeline rehabilitations. The slip-lining process is just as it sounds – a smaller carrier pipe is slipped into a larger host pipe. Then, the negative space between the carrier and host pipe is filled and sealed with grout
