WORKSHOPS:

Selected issues concerning the design of the pipeline rehabilitation liners in reference to the DWA-A 143-2 guideline

Leaders:
dr inż. Tomasz Abel, dr inż. Bogdan Przybyła, Beata Nienartowicz

The goal of the workshops is to discuss the basic rules of designing pipeline rehabilitation liners in reference to the DWA-A 143-2 guideline and the audit work issues.
Discussed topics will include:
• assessment of the existing pipeline,
• rehabilitaion methods in reference with the assessement outcome,
• input data for the design and the load imposed on the liner,
• imperfection problem, technical state III and IIIa,
• determination of the internal forces and dimensioning for operation and mounting,
• calculation scheme
• quality of work assessment

During the lecture there will be discussed rules of liners dimensioning in reference to the DWA-A 143-2 guideline

 

DISCUSSION PANELS:

Executing the water and sewage project in the new legal reality
Moderator: Piotr ZiÄ™tara, President of the Board of Municipal Water and Sewage Company S.A. in Kraków (MPWiK S.A)

 

TECHNOLOGY SHOWS:

Sealing the connections – today and in the past - BLEJKAN S.A.
During the show it will be explained how the sealing of the connections methods have changed over the last few years and how the pipe spot repair systems were extended by one of the most modern solutions, based on UV radiation.
There will be also presented an overview of the methods of sealing with polyester and fiberglass cap-shaped fittings, alongside with the pipe spot repair systems that include a usage of a short sleeve.
