ACPPA member Brad Ryan (P.Eng.) from DECAST will be presenting a case study paper on the forcemain twinning and expansion for the York-Durham Sewage System at this year’s UESI/ASCE Pipelines Conference in Calgary, AB. This project included 5.5km (3.4mi) of PCCP forcemain installed via trenchless methods that had to cross multiple dense urban areas, major roadways, rivers and other sensitive areas. The original line was installed in the 1980’s, and roughly 30 years later was identified as nearing capacity and being in need of expansion in order to service the ever-growing area whose population had exploded in that time.
This presentation will cover installation methods, design considerations and more! Make sure you are available on Monday, July 29th at 1:30pm to learn about the challenges faced and the solutions that made this project a success!
