Dyno-rod provides missing link
July 1st 2007 Machmade, a Dyno-Rod
franchisee was recently
asked by the groundworks
contractor of a commercial
development to replace a
section of drainage that had
been removed to allow
construction of a ground
beam.
When a CCTV survey
revealed a blockage in the
drain caused by plywood, it
was decided to use Dyno-
Rod's in2 drain replacement
system. This involves either
winching or pushing new
sections of pipe through an
existing sewer, working
from one end or both.
As there was a bend
immediately upstream of
the manhole, Machmade
had to dismantle the
chamber to set up the
equipment. A hole was
punched through the
plywood using a special in2
jack with driving head, into
the space beneath the
beam. Sections of the in2
pipe were then screwed
together and jacked down
the drain, bridging the gap
and into the down stream
section of the drain. A
Localine sleeve was
installed over the end of the
in2 section, sealing it to the
down stream drain. More articles from Dyno-Rod Ltd: |
