Trenchless Technologies
What is Trenchless Technology?
Trenchless Technology involves the rehabilitation of existing
underground utilities such as water, sewer, storm, gas, and electrical
conduits, as well as the installation of new underground infrastructure.
Trenchless Technology uses methods that minimize the construction
impacts associated with traditional open-cut construction methods.
Projects in Trenchless Technology
Over the last several years, Dayton & Knight Ltd. has completed many
trenchless technology projects. Some of which are both innovative
and at the forefront of trenchless technology in North America and the
World.
Including the award-winning project,
City of Nanaimo, Pipe Bursting of the
Millstone Sanitary Trunk Sewer.

Benefits of Trenchless
Technology
|
Environmental:
Reduced impacts resulting from less surface
disruption to environmentally sensitive areas.
Construction:
Construction impacts are minimized when
compared to open-cut construction.
There is a reduction in import backfill and pipe bedding, and minimal
trench construction improves long-term sustainability of pavement.
|
|
Safety:
Site safety is more effectively managed due
to localized stationary worksite.
Social:
Trenchless construction minimizes traffic
and noise impacts, two common complaints from the public due to
traditional construction.
Costs:
Where there are numerous existing services
and/or where relatively deep excavation is required, trenchless
construction can provide substantial cost savings. |
