	CIPP - a cure for damaged pipes
	Trenchless International (October 2009) - Cured-in-place pipe (CIPP) systems create a close-fit ‘pipe-within-a-pipe’. A variety of CIPP systems are available, the common feature being the use of a fabric tube impregnated with resin. The tube is inserted into the existing pipeline and inflated against the pipe wall, then cured most commonly at ambient temperature, by re-circulating hot water, steam or ultra-violet light.

	Pipe bursting – big in Japan
	Trenchless International (July 2009) - While existing sewer systems in Japan have continued to function far beyond their design service life, the pipelines have deteriorated and need costly maintenance and repair. This has been a concern for Japanese sewage engineers for over 15 years, and has been a driving force for the development of alternative repairing techniques for underground infrastructure, such as lining systems or pipe bursting.

	Trenchless Manhole Rehabilitation in Bloomington, Ind.
	Trenchless Technology (June 2009) - In Bloomington, Ind., restoring the structural integrity of an aged sanitary sewer collection system in a predominantly residential area was necessary due to inflow-and-infiltration. Insituform CIPP was used to rehabilitate 18,000 ft of 8-in. vitrified clay pipe (VCP), 1,800 ft of 10-in. VCP and 170 ft of 12-in. VCP. Because of collapse, several point repairs in the pipe were also necessary. In addition, a multi-layered polymeric system was used to restore 106 manholes. A comprehensive solution that addressed all causes of infiltration was the logical choice for Bloomington.

	Phoenix Water Main Undergoing Innovative Rehabilitation Methods
	Underground Construction (July 2009) - When a condition assessment of an existing pre-stressed concrete cylinder pipe (PCCP) in Phoenix, AZ using electromagnetic and forensic analysis identified the need to completely rehabilitate it, innovative construction techniques were used to achieve dual objectives: employ the least possible intrusive methods while providing a long-term, rehabilitated product, keeping time and cost factors in mind.
