Underground pipe jacking
TRENCHLESS INSTALLATION OF STEEL AND VITRIFIED CLAY CASING PIPES.
Hydraulic pipe jacking installs pipes underground without the continuous excavation required by open-cut methods.
APPLICATIONS OF TRENCHLESS CONSTRUCTION
- Utility infrastructure for new development sites
- Building service connections
- Crossings beneath roads, motorways, railway lines, and watercourses
- Crossings beneath historic sites and existing structures
- Crossings beneath groundwater abstraction zones
ADVANTAGES OF HYDRAULIC PIPE JACKING
SHORT CONSTRUCTION TIMES
- Protection for existing underground infrastructure
- Less disruption to residents and daily life near the work site
LONG SERVICE LIFE
- High construction quality and pipeline integrity
- Structural safety
- Reduced risk of pipeline settlement
SURFACE PROTECTION
- Minimal disturbance to existing surfaces
- Protection of the surrounding environment, plants, and wildlife
