In-service repair method combining externally bonded pre-stressed FRP and polymer grouting for PCCP with broken wire
A in-service repair method combing externally bonded pre-stressed FRP and polymer grouting for PCCP with broken wire, includes excavating PCCP, supporting the PCCP, treating outer wall of PCCP, bonded an external of the PCCP with pre-stressed FRP for repairing, laying grouting pipe, backfilling and grouting for densing. First of all, excavating a PCCP pipeline to be repaired and supporting the PCCP pipeline with a supporting device, smoothing the outer wall of the PCCP pipeline at a broken wire position and applying primer, and winding the FRP around a damaged portion of the PCCP pipeline, pre-stressing the FRP by applying a pre-stressing device and applying dipping glue to the FRP after tension to stick the FRP on the pipe wall, then laying a grouting pipe, backfilling the pipeline repaired, and finally injecting polymer into the soil after backfilling and compacting the soil by the grouting pipe pre-buried.
Trenchless integrative repair method for concrete drainage pipeline with cracking, corrosion and subsidence
A trenchless integrative repair method includes steps of: S1, pre-casting steel rings according to an internal diameter of a diseased pipeline, and forming grouting holes in the steel rings; S2, loading the steel rings to a diseased position inside the pipeline, and fitting the steel rings to an internal wall of the pipeline to form reinforcing rings; S3, selecting a number of the grouting holes according to subsidence distribution; drilling a hole in the pipeline to reach a subsidence position and inserting a grouting pipe; steadily grouting the subsidence position with a polymer grouting system, and observing a lift condition of the pipeline; removing the grouting pipe after the pipeline is lifted to a predetermined level; and S4, pulling a lining pipe into the pipeline, and fitting the lining pipe to the steel rings and pipeline walls adjacent to the steel rings; curing the lining pipe.
Concrete Reinforcement Elements and Structures
A prong is configured for use with a concrete reinforcement element and includes first and second legs positioned opposite first and second sides of the prong and a bridge portion connecting distal ends the legs, where the bridge portion forms a first end of the prong. The legs extend from the bridge portion to a second end of the prong opposite the first end, and each of the legs has a proximal end at the second end of the prong. The proximal end of the first leg is bent toward the second leg, and the proximal end of the second leg is bent toward the first leg, such that the proximal ends of the legs overlap each other. Inner surfaces of the proximal ends of the legs define engagement surfaces configured to engage a tie wire, enabling the proximal ends to be connected to the tie wire.
PIPE WITH AN OUTER WRAP
This disclosure relates generally to corrugated pipe, and more particularly to corrugated pipe with an outer wrap. In one embodiment, a pipe includes an axially extended bore defined by a corrugated outer wall having axially adjacent, outwardly-extending corrugation crests, separated by corrugation valleys. The pipe also includes an outer wrap applied to the outer wall. The outer wrap may include fibers and plastic. The outer wrap may span the corrugation crests producing a smooth outer surface.
REINFORCED CONCRETE PIPE
Structural body comprises a concrete core and a cap around the opening. A first wrap is wrapped under tension around the concrete core and a portion of the cap to form a continuous water resistant barrier around the outer surface of the concrete core. A second wrap can be wrapped under tension around the inner surface of concrete core to form a continuous water resistant barrier around the inner surface of the concrete core. Structural body can be formed as a pipe with a male and female ends to interconnect multiple pipes. The joint formed between two structural bodies has a continuous water resistant barrier that prevents the environment from contacting the concrete core.
Systems and Methods of Concrete Apparatus with Incorporated Lifter
Systems and methods for a concrete apparatus with incorporated lifter are provided. A concrete apparatus is formed by placing a reinforcement system in a mold. The reinforcement system comprises a lifter. Concrete is poured into the mold such that the lifter protrudes from the poured concrete. After the concrete has hardened and the mold is removed, the lifter is used to carry and position the concrete apparatus. After the concrete apparatus is positioned, the lifter is removed at the circumference of the concrete apparatus leaving no holes, thereby eliminating water leakage due to lifting methods.
Method and apparatus for producing a sewer pipe element
The present invention relates to a method for manufacturing a sewage pipe element comprising a plastics lining, the method comprising the following steps: providing a mould 2 for manufacturing the sewage pipe element, comprising a first sleeve 22 and a plastics element 20; introducing a concrete into the mould 2; attaching a second sleeve 28; demoulding the sewage pipe element; the first sleeve 22 being connected to the plastics element 20 and the plastics element 20 being connected to the second sleeve 28 in a fluid-tight manner in each case and forming at least part of the plastics lining.
Reinforced concrete pipe
Structural body comprises a concrete core and a cap around the opening. A first wrap is wrapped under tension around the concrete core and a portion of the cap to form a continuous water resistant barrier around the outer surface of the concrete core. A second wrap can be wrapped under tension around the inner surface of concrete core to form a continuous water resistant barrier around the inner surface of the concrete core. Structural body can be formed as a pipe with a male and female ends to interconnect multiple pipes. The joint formed between two structural bodies has a continuous water resistant barrier that prevents the environment from contacting the concrete core.
Pipe with an outer wrap
The embodiments of the present disclosure provide a method of applying an outer wrap to a corrugated pipe. The method comprises receiving a corrugated pipe that is cut to length, determining a wrap type to be applied to the corrugated pipe, determining a flow rate for applying a wrap of the wrap type based on a type of plastic used in the wrap, a type of fiber used in the wrap, and the wrap type, and applying a wrap made of the type of fiber and the type of plastic to the corrugated pipe using the determined flow rate.
Construction of Large Diameter Concrete Pneumatic Tube for Transportation System
The invention includes a tube fabricated for use in a tubeway, which includes a plurality of tube segments. Each tube segment forms a portion of the tube. The tube segment is extruded in a form to allow for joining with other tube segments to form the a tube. Prestressed metallic wires included within each tube segment. The plurality of tube segments are assembled to form the tube. End fittings are provided on each opposing end of the tube segments forming the tube to facilitate joining the tube to other tubes end-to-end. At least one post-tension cable is attached to opposing end fittings on the tube segment. The invention further includes an on-site method for fabricating and assembling the tubeway from the prestressed concrete tube segments.
