Description
Water systems carry the lifeblood of modern society, providing the serice needed to maintain public health and drive community growth. As stewards of these systems, infrastructure owners and operating agencies are charged with maintainng these assets in an efficient manner. Faced with aging infrastructure and a growing number of product options, many are challenged to find water-main renewal technologies capable of meeting their long-term needs. This seminar builds on asset management principles to provide a structured framework for rationalizing water-main renewal technology and support participants in filling their "renewal toolbox" with material and installation options that are compatible with their technical and lifecycle objectives and regional environmental contraints. This seminar included hands-on use of the tools presented.
