Task
Elimination of vertical and horizontal displacement of reinforced concrete pipe sections that occurred during construction due to insufficient compaction of the pipe foundation. Displacement may also be caused by mechanical impact from construction equipment during pipe backfilling.
SolutionMajor rehabilitation of a culvert pipe using permanent formwork in the form of a V-LOCK anchor sheet technology, based on the «PipeArm» method.
The technology involves installing a polymer protective sleeve made of anchor sheet, reinforced with a reinforcement cage, inside the pipe, and injecting a special mineral-binder-based grout into the space between the existing pipe structure and the polymer sleeve.
Technology Advantages- Minimal reduction in the internal diameter of the existing structure
- Restoration of load-bearing capacity and prevention of further structural degradation
- Improved water flow capacity and prevention of silt accumulation due to the polymer liner’s low hydraulic resistance
