Summary

This presentation will discuss water asset management and renewal. Water infrastructure renewal has historically focused on replacement using the direct bury method, at current costs of $1,000,000 per mile. Many water system managers are evaluating available rehabilitation technologies to save money and minimize system disruption. As the suitability of a given lining technology is predicated on the structural condition of the host pipe, acoustic wall thickness testing is first performed to determine current pipeline condition, and thereby select the optimum rehabilitation method.
