A comprehensive technical overview of trenchless technology for the installation, inspection, and repair of underground piping systems. It begins by contrasting traditional open-cut excavation with modern trenchless methods, emphasizing the latter's ability to reduce social costs and environmental disruptions. The text details various specialized techniques, such as horizontal directional drilling (HDD), microtunneling, and pipe bursting, while explaining the critical physics of pipe-soil interaction. Additionally, the book covers renewal strategies like cured-in-place pipe (CIPP) and spray-on linings for aging infrastructure. By focusing on project planning, safety protocols, and quality control, the author offers a guide for engineers and contractors to execute successful underground utility projects.
