Safety parameters calibration in the structural design of sewer liners

Blog Article

The article concerns aspects of safety in the process of designing continuous polymer liners used to strengthen and seal sewers and drains.The issues of safety coefficients, the variability of basic loadbearing parameters of liners and the problem of sensitivity of analytical solutions describing load-bearing capacity are discussed.The currently used magnitude of safety factors has been verified.The results of an examination read more on the safety index of liners for strengthening sewers has been presented in the paper.

The necessity for the verification of current concepts of liner safety normalisation was herein addressed.A postulation here to abandon the analogy of liners for newly constructed pipes was formulated.Calculations using the Hasofer-Lind safety index (First Order Reliability Method) were performed in some cases.A verification and evaluation of the global safety factor for sewer liners were herein carried out.
