Sliplining Overview : Issues and Concerns O Liner Diameter Fit O5% Annulus Typical O Host Undersized O Joint Offsets, Grade & Alignment of Host Pipe O Verify with Madrel Before Insertion of Liner Pipe O Joint Selection, Low Profile vs/ Flush OCondition of Host Pipe, Not Fully Clean? ODesired Clearance 6
Steel Mandrel Fabricated by Contractor 7
Pit Locations O At PI s (Points of Intersection ) O Adjacent to Curves or Manholes O Specify Denied Area s (Owner) O Shallow Locations are Preferable O Distance Limitations, How Far to next PI? 8
Sliplining Pit Locations Compact! 9

Pushing Distances and Curves O 2,000 to 3,000 typical, longest push know 5,600 (51 into 57 ) O Distances Depend on Pipe Material (CCFRPM, PVC, HDPE) O Curves Require Short Pipes(3,5,10 )/ Smaller Diameter OUse of CIPP in Curves OFittings Carried- In or / Dig up and Replace 12
LAX Airport: 4700 feet of 48 pipe pushed from one pit. Less than 25 tons to push 500 tons of pipe. 13
Pipe Insertion O Cleaning Line No Obstructions OPoint Repairs O Mandrel Proof Before Insertion of Liner O Pusing Pipe with Pushing Ring (The Easy Part!) ORates of up to 240 per Hour in Live Flow OLateral Connections O Video Confirmation 14
Lateral Connections 15
Grouting and Inspection O Collapse Pressure Grouting Contractors O Floatation ( Best with Ballast of Sewage & Lightweight Grout) O Bulkhead at Manholes Pushing Sewage from Annulus O Video Inspection Confirmation of No Damage OLeak Testing O Close out Pit Locations, Closure Couplings 16

Platte River Interceptor Rehab OProject Necessary Because Infiltrartion Tests Showed Joints Leaking. O 78 RCP Sewer Transmission Line / 150 Leaking Joints. O Metro Dist Spent $300,000 to Repair Joints/ $18,0000 each ORepairs Unsuccessful OGlobal Solution Desired by Metro Dist - Leak Free Pipe. O Project Designed by Metro Dist Engineering. 21
Platte River Interceptor Rehab OScope: Rehabilitate 2,030 of 78 RCP & 3 Manholes and Associated Fittings. ( Trenchless & Open Cut) OProject Bid Competitively Between Slipline and CIPP O District had Luxury of Diverting Flow on the Line. O Low Bidder: America West Construction Inc. Denver CO O Construction Cost: $1,338,981 O Method Chosen by America West Construction: Slipline 22

Advantages to Sliplining - HOBAS OImproved Flow Capacity (increased hydraulics) OMany Oddball Pipe Diameter to choose (27, 33, 41 ) ODone in Live Flow No By Pass Pumping =$$$ O High Strength Pipe Longer Pushes = Fewer Pits O Joint (Low profile vs. Flush) and Pipe Length Options O Easy to Grout with Higher Safety Factors O Visual Inspection of Liner Before Insertion OPipe is Designed to be Stand Alone O Significant History of Supplying Slipline Pipe 33
HOBAS PIPES are your best value Thank you
