Pipe bursting
Pipe bursting is a well established method for trenchless replacement of deteriorated and undersized gas, water and sewer pipes. An existing 2-inch to 8-inch pipe is replaced size for size or upsized with a new pipe in the same location.
This landmark process greatly reduces the disruption and destruction caused by the previous trenching excavation process. It is now being utilized worldwide.
The pipe bursting process allows a new polyethylene pipe to be pulled through an old pipeline of equal or smaller size. The old pipeline may be made of any fracturable material, such as clay, iron, concrete, ABS, and PVC.
This is possible because the pipe bursting head shatters the old pipe as it is pulled through, and pushes the fragments out into the surrounding soil.
The rear of the pipe bursting head is connected to the new pipe, while its front end is connected to the chain, which pulls it from the reception pit.
The new pipe is pulled through with little or no stress, as the base of the bursting head is larger than the inside diameter of the old pipe. This greatly reduces friction on the new pipe; the chain and bursting head absorb all the energy.
The new polyethylene (PE) pipe is electro-fused in sections to become one continuous whole, seamless line. PE pipe is much smoother, more resistant to abrasion, and will not be damaged by microbiologically induced or chemical corrosion.
