The Problem:Despite recent increases in public infrastructure investments, municipal infrastructure is decaying faster than it is being renewed.1

1 National Guide to Sustainable Municipal Infrastructure.


The Cause:

Internal (External) corrosion

Watermain breaks

Pipe surpassed useful life


Inadequate Fire Inadequate Fire ProtectionProtection

High Rate of LeakageHigh Rate of Leakage

Modern Cleaning and Spray LiningRapid cure polyurethane systemRapid cure high build system


TRADITIONAL CLEANING AND SPRAY LINING Cement Lining process Epoxy Lining process

• Less expensive• No reduction in flow capacity• No requirement to re-tap services

• Some disruption• Not suitable for certain water types• Superseded in Europe by polyurethane lining systems.• Requires above ground temporary water supply $$$$$$$ ??

TRADITIONAL CLEANING AND CEMENT LINING



MODERN CLEANING AND SPRAY LINING Rapid Cure Polyurethane system Rapid Cure High Build system




• Same day return to service•Only approved rapid cure material <15 sec•Potential for contamination effectively eliminated•No leaching•Immediate rectification of lining faults




• Same day return to service• No requirement for above ground bypass

•Improved customer services; multi-stage notification process•Operations carried out during working hours•Removes potential hazards (ie. Tripping hazards, random breaks, security issues)




• Same day return to service• No requirement for above ground bypass • Substantially less expensive - cost of bypass 20-45% of total job (Awwarf)

•Cost of temporary resources reduced•Shorter construction duration




• Same day return to service• No requirement for above ground bypass • Substantially less expensive• Greatly reduced disruption

•Minimal setup time•Rapid road reinstatement•Small job site footprint




• Same day return to service• No requirement for above ground bypass • Substantially less expensive• Greatly reduced disruption• Some revaluation of capital asset?• No reduction in flow capacity

•Application of 1mm – 5mm




• Same day return to service• No requirement for above ground bypass • Substantially less expensive• Greatly reduced disruption• Some revaluation of capital asset?• No reduction in flow capacity• No requirement to re-tap services
