The burst lining technique<br />

4.3 Pipeline materials<br />

Because the soil c<strong>on</strong>diti<strong>on</strong>s are generally unknown and above all because <strong>of</strong> the sharpedged<br />

fragments (Fig. . ) which most certainly occur with the burst lining technique,<br />

care should be taken to see that the pipeline material used is <strong>on</strong>e which is not sensitive<br />

to factors <strong>of</strong> this kind.<br />

4.3.1 Outside protecti<strong>on</strong><br />

The coating <strong>of</strong> plastic-modified cement mortar (ZMU) which is used <strong>on</strong> ductile cast ir<strong>on</strong><br />

pipes provides excellent protecti<strong>on</strong> against the risks which are menti<strong>on</strong>ed above. The<br />

socket joint is fitted with a cement mortar protecting sleeve or a shrink-<strong>on</strong> sleeve and is<br />

protected by a sheet-metal c<strong>on</strong>e (Fig. .10).<br />

Plastic pipes may <strong>on</strong>ly be used if they have a protective outer sheath. (Please note that<br />

the investigati<strong>on</strong>s described in GWF 3/2000 [ . ] clearly indicate that even this protective<br />

outer sheath does not always provide protecti<strong>on</strong> against damage to the pipe within<br />

it caused by point loads.)<br />
