Abstract
This chapter explores the use of fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) composites for rehabilitation of large-diameter water pipelines and sewer force mains. The chapter describes the process used for asset management for water and wastewater pipelines which includes establishing pipeline criticality and inspection priority followed by selection of the appropriate inspection and condition assessment technologies for evaluating a given pipeline. Evaluation of the condition assessment results for a pipeline then leads to prioritizing repairs. The chapter then provides an overview for rehabilitation technologies for large-diameter pressure pipelines followed by a review of state-of-the-art techniques for FRP rehabilitation techniques as applied to pipelines. Specific examples are provided to highlight the different uses of FRP for rehabilitation of water and wastewater pipelines.
