This is the first broad-based guide to the increasingly important
subject of trenchless technology - the wide array of processes and
techniques for digging holes and rehabilitating conduits without
disturbing the ground surface. Trenchless technology has become an
effective and economic alternative to open-cut construction. Cities
and communities can no longer afford to disrupt traffic or disturb
the public. Nor can they afford the high costs of restoration that
result from traditional methods. An Introduction to Trenchless
Technology provides you with a sound understanding of what this
technology is, how it works, and what benefits it offers. This
first-of-its-kind resource gathers information on the latest
techniques and equipment used in guided boring, pipe jacking,
microtunnelling, auger boring, horizontal directional drilling,
on-line replacement, and renovation. Clear guidelines not only help
you decide how and where to apply trenchless methods, but also
demonstrate the strong economic advantages they offer. The book's
unique classification system and easy-to-understand descriptions
explain each method in detail. Also, a special chapter on job
planning shows you critical factors to evaluate when using the
technology. Throughout the book, case histories offer valuable
insights on how trenchless technologies actually work.
