<str<strong>on</strong>g>Buderus</str<strong>on</strong>g> Giesserei Wetzlar GmbH is able<br />
to make tracti<strong>on</strong> heads available to the<br />
companies doing the work <strong>on</strong> hire against<br />
a hire charge. At least two pits are always<br />
required for renovati<strong>on</strong> by the relining<br />
technique. The size <strong>of</strong> the pits depends <strong>on</strong><br />
the tracti<strong>on</strong> equipment that is used. The<br />
pipes are six metres in length and because<br />
<strong>of</strong> this the assembly pit should be at least<br />
eight metres l<strong>on</strong>g. The width <strong>of</strong> the assembly<br />
pit depends in the nominal size <strong>of</strong> pipe<br />
which is going to be installed (Fig. 7. ).<br />
7.2.2 Pushing-in<br />
Fig. 7.6 View <strong>of</strong> an assembly pit<br />
For pushing-in, ductile cast ir<strong>on</strong> pipes having TYTON ® restrained joints which are not<br />
<strong>of</strong> the l<strong>on</strong>gitudinal force-fit type are pushed into the old pipeline. When this is d<strong>on</strong>e,<br />
the axial thrust is transmitted to the end-wall <strong>of</strong> the TYTON ® socket from the endface<br />
<strong>of</strong> the inserting end. Because the inserting ends <strong>of</strong> the pipes are bevelled, it is not<br />
the entire cross-secti<strong>on</strong> <strong>of</strong> the pipe-wall that is available to transmit the axial thrust<br />
(Fig. 7.7). Also, allowance must be made under DIN EN for the smallest outside<br />
diameter that is possible for the pipes.<br />
The compressive strength <strong>of</strong> ductile cast ir<strong>on</strong> is σ D = 0 N/mm².<br />
Leaving aside any safety factor, a pressing force <strong>of</strong> P = σ D x A wall is thus possible, where<br />
A wall is the cross-secti<strong>on</strong>al area <strong>of</strong> the wall <strong>of</strong> the cast ir<strong>on</strong> which transmits the force.<br />
