MANHOLE BASE ASSEMBLY WITH INTERNAL LINER AND METHOD OF MANUFACTURING SAME
A manhole base assembly and a method for making the same employ a non-cylindrical, low-volume concrete base that is fully lined to protect the concrete against chemical and physical attack while in service. This lined concrete manhole base assembly may be readily produced using a modular manhole form assembly which can be configured for a wide variety of geometrical configurations compatible with, e.g., varying pipe angles, elevations and sizes. The form assembly is configurable to provide any desired angle and elevation for the pipe apertures to interface with various underground systems, and can be formed on-site to facilitate compatibility with existing structures. The assembly provides for flexible, modular construction of a wide variety of lined manhole base assemblies at minimal cost, reduced concrete consumption and reduced operational complexity. The modular nature of the production form assembly also facilitates reduced inventory requirements when various manhole base assembly geometries are needed.
Flow channel form design for manhole assemblies
The present disclosure is generally directed to processes and apparatuses for use in forming one or more flow channels within a prefabricated manhole assembly. More specifically, an exemplary apparatus embodying various aspects of the disclosure may contain a rigid channel form with a closed top portion, a curved bottom portion, a first end, and a second end. The apparatus may also contain a bung(s) removably positioned into an exterior hole through a sidewall of the prefabricated manhole that may receive one end of the channel form, the bung(s) interior end may further have an open-ended U-shaped slot. A sliding wedge may be used to engaged/disengage the flow channel form.

Inspection chamber for a pipe structure for drainage or sewerage
Inspection chamber for a pipe structure for drainage or sewerage, the chamber having an inspection entrance at a first side for connecting up with an inspection shaft, the chamber further being provided with a feet-structure at a second side, the first side and the second side being opposite sides of the inspection chamber, the feet-structure comprising at least two feet which are in combination configured for: stabilizing the inspection chamber when positioned on a supporting ground in such a way that the inspection entrance is at an upper position, therewith hindering sideways falling of the inspection chamber; and maintaining the manufactured shape of the inspection entrance of another one of such an inspection chamber when the feet-structure is placed in a mating position with the inspection entrance of that other one of such an inspection chamber, for instance during storage and/or transport thereof; and of which each foot itself is configured for: resisting sinking of the inspection chamber into a sandy ground when positioned on such a sandy ground in such a way that the inspection entrance is at an upper position.
