<strong>Conduits</strong> <strong>through</strong> <strong>Embankment</strong> <strong>Dams</strong>12.2 Cured-in-place pipePlastic cured-in-place pipe (CIPP) liners are typically used within inaccessibleconduits. However, guidance provided in section 12.2 basically applies to lining ofaccessible or inaccessible conduits. CIPP liners are best suited for existing conduitsthat are not severely damaged or deformed and have constant diameters and nosharp bends. The designer should consider the method of CIPP liner installation aspart of the design process. CIPP liners can be inserted into the existing conduit byeither the inversion method (ASTM F 1216) or the pulled-in-place method (ASTMF 1743).Additional information on CIPP liners used in sewer and pipeline application isavailable in USACE’s Guidelines for Trenchless Technology: Cured-in-Place Pipe (CIPP), Foldand-FormedPipe (FFP), Mini-Horizontal Directional Drilling (Mini-HDD), andMicrotunneling (1995d) and ASTM D 5813.12.2.1 Design considerationsThe designer must evaluate a number of design parameters when considering CIPPlining for conduits. A few of the most significant design parameters include:• Seepage paths• Service life• Initial inspection of the existing conduit• Selection of the diameter and thickness• Thermal expansion/contraction• Stress cracking• Fabrication• Joints• Flotation• Entrance and terminal structures324
