Challenge
The challenge was to eliminate storm drain infiltration and prevent ground settling.
Engineered Solution
To protect the investment of a large pavement project on a parkway, the HydraTite® 48-in extra wide internal pipe seals were selected to prevent infiltration and ground settling.
Scope
The project included the installation of seven 48-in extra wide HydraTite® internal pipe seals to repair the pipe joints in a reinforced concrete storm drain subjected to ground infiltration and the development of sink holes.
Solution
The total cost of installation and furnishing the HydraTite® seals was competitive with hand grouting the joints, offering a 50 year design life and eliminating water and ground infiltration in the storm drain.
