Water and wastewater infrastructure are a somewhat invisible, yet
critical, part of modern life. Incredibly, many buried assets have
been in service for 50-100 years and are still in good condition.
Conversely, other systems fail well before their predicted design
lives, causing property damage, injury, and even loss of life. In
many cases, early detection could have prevented catastrophic
failure, and understanding the state of underground infrastructure
has become a key priority for many municipalities. Industry has
responded with a number of new and innovative technologies for
condition assessment, however, understanding these tools can be
difficult, as many vendors treat their proprietary systems as trade
secrets. Water and Wastewater Pipeline Assessment Technologies:
Classification Systems, Sensors, and Results Interpretation
provides a thorough guide to the technical workings of some of the
most popular water and wastewater assessment technologies
available, including CCTV crawlers, acoustic listening devices,
laser sensors, 360 video cameras, pipe penetrating radar, and more.
Features: Presents an overview of current technologies in CCTV
inspection, including next generation video formats,
high-definition resolution, and fisheye/sidescan technology.
Provides helpful tips and tricks to cut through technical jargon
and identify the technological specifications to compare between
multiple vendors. Examines the pros and cons of competing
technologies including laser and lidar, and provides an overview of
unique approaches such as Pipe Penetrating Radar, Focused Electrode
Leak Location, and more. Highlights the importance of coding
standards, data management, and software tools that can be
leveraged to create a successful asset management program. Water
and Wastewater Pipeline Assessment Technologies: Classification
Systems, Sensors, and Results Interpretation provides a mixture of
theory and real-world, practical considerations ranging from
deployment tips and data exchange formats to the technical
limitations of different technologies. The book is a valuable
resource for municipal employees, project engineers, and others
involved in designing and implementing major inspection programs.
