Abstract
Cured-in-place pipe (CIPP), as a kind of trenchless sewer rehabilitation technology, is a method to repair sewer pipe using unsaturated polyester resin. This study develops a CIPP liner using hot water or steam curing as well as glass fiber, in contrast to traditional methods, which use nonwoven fabric. Composite material samples were fabricated by combining liner materials using various methods, and the structural characteristics of the liners were compared and analyzed through short- and long-term flexural strength tests. A long-term test was conducted for 10,000 h, and the results revealed 13.3 times higher flexural strength and 8 times higher flexural modulus than the American Society for Testing Materials minimum criteria for CIPP short-term properties. The maximum creep retention factor was 0.64, thereby reducing the design thickness of the CIPP by up to 54%. The structural characteristics also improved when glass fibers were mixed with traditional CIPP liner, making it possible to reduce the thickness by 30%. Glass fibers result in high structural strength when combined with unsaturated polyester resin. Structural strength increased, even when glass fibers were mixed with traditional CIPP liner. The main contribution of this research is the development of a high strength CIPP liner and improvement of the structural properties of CIPP lining without using the specially formulated resin or lining materials.

Summary
The purpose of sewer systems is to prevent urban flooding and maintain sanitary conditions. To this end, sewer systems rapidly remove and transport surface rainwater and deliver sewage to treatment plants. Sewer pipes are not visible because they are buried underground, but they are gradually damaged due to continuous traffic, ground loads, groundwater effects, and aging. The soil, tree roots, and groundwater that penetrate the cracks disrupt the flow in the pipes. Sewage leaking out of the cracks leads to internal and external problems, such as contaminating soil and causing sink holes [1]. To prevent or address these problems, repair or replacement is required
