Reline Unknown: The Infrastructure Vlog: Recent Episodes
Recycled Media
Looking to expand his own knowledge of pipe reline and infrastructure rehabilitation, Cassie Jordan embarks on the journey into the NO DIG construction world while interviewing experts in all facets of the industry. Given the opportunity to manage a HDPE pipe reline manufacturing company in 2018, Cassie quickly realized there was so much more to this fascinating industry. The key stakeholders that drive the decisions made by businesses, municipalities, local and federal government agencies are determining everyday how Americas aging underground infrastructure will be dealt with in the upcoming years….Our mission is to help individuals and organizations gain insight into the pipe reline and infrastructure world and help process the key decision that will need to be made… RELINE or REPLACE.

Tune in to hear his detailed explanation of the next steps to take, and a reminder of the significance of inspections.
Tune in to today's episode with Michael Rothenberg , where he provides a brief summary of his final pipe inspection of 2023. Located beneath one of the busiest roads, the failing culverts necessitate trenchless rehabilitation as the only viable option. Take a listen to discover more about this potentially pressing reline.
Listen in this week with Cassie Clancy as she discusses the experience of being on-site during a road expansion project. The project required the installation of two snap-tite sticks underneath the road, where snap-tite had already been installed over a decade prior. A very unique project for our territory!

Join Cassie Jordan with Rian McCaslin from Contech Engineered Solutions and Don LeBlanc, P.E. from DLVEWS. Rehabilitating or relining a drainage or sanitary pipeline or structure requires a site-specific analysis. There is no one-size-fits-all approach. Every reline project needs to be examined closely by qualified professionals. ContechES offers many products for reline and Rehabilitation, but this Reline LIVE we are going to focus specifically on their A2™ Liner Pipe and DuroMaxx®.
Join Cassie with Ryan Seastrunk and Kyle Olsen to talk about how URETEK preserves and rehabilitates pavement and infrastructure assets using advanced technology, superior chemistry, inventive technique, and above all, extensive experience.

We will take a look at some of the services and solutions they can provide with URETEK Deep Injection® (UDI) application.
Join Cassie Jordan with Don LeBlanc. P.E. and Travis Stearns from C. L. H. & Son. Travis is a culvert sliplining contractor that will be giving us a look into what a sliplining job looks like from beginning to end. As our country's infrastructure ages, it’s necessary to monitor all culverts to make sure they are still performing the function they were designed to do and to prevent problems such as roadway sinkholes or flooding. Travis is going to walk us through what this process looks like from start to finish. Bring your questions. Don and Cassie will be discussing challenges they face when working with contractors on liners and what are some of the hurdles that they face on the day-to-day.

Just like anything in the trenchless construction world, the feasibility of a culvert rehabilitation & reline project starts with high quality engineering. Recently, Don LeBlanc and Don McGriff spoke at the Transportation Research Board conference in D.C. on the topic of improving entrance losses and headwater conditions. In this version of Reline LIVE, you will hear from “the Dons” on their experience with helping owners and engineers out with their hydraulic concerns. They will discuss the various types of inlet modifications (including the HydroBell by ISCO/Snap-Tite) and how they have been modeled in various engineering programs.
Don LeBlanc joins Reline LIVE again to discuss challenging projects with a deeper focus on 3 case studies. He will give us tips and tricks to use in the field as well as looking at why and when certain products work better on certain jobs. Taking into consideration things like site conditions, location, installer experience and much more.

Rian McCaslin a Drainage Manager for Contech Engineered Solution. Rian will be discussing using their UltraFlo steel pipe for relining projects. Relining aging culverts with Ultra Flo will provide exceptional flow and structural integrity.
UltraFlo is available as a spiral rib aluminum, aluminized or polymer-coated steel pipe. It is made 18" to 102"+ with 75 to 100 year design life. The lightweight and custom lengths of CMP make it an ideal product for slip lining an existing pipe. Diameters are available in 1” increments to maximize flow capacity and hydraulics.

During this Reline LIVE we will be adding a new topic and exploring a sanitary sewer case study as well as a culvert rehab case study.
Large diameter pipes and culverts represent the backbone of any city’s utility network for the collection and disposal of sewage and effective drainage of stormwater. In many cases the fabric of these pipelines, which may consist of brick, stone, concrete or clayware will have been constructed decades ago and although proven resilient, has eventually succumbed to the ravages of time, suffering the effects of H2S attack or erosion and may even be exhibiting signs of imminent failure due to structural loading beyond that of its remaining capability.
At this point, the need arises to consider the means by which the structural rehabilitation of these pipelines and ducts can be achieved whereby a new, 100-year plus life expectancy can be provided with a high degree of confidence. Channeline international has been providing bespoke Structural Glass Reinforced Plastic (GRP / FRP) lining systems since the early 1980’s, they have engineering and manufacturing experience for both Circular and Non-circular buried infrastructure worldwide.

Join us with Chad Kitchen, a Regional Bridge Consultant for Contech Engineered Solutions, will be discussing structural plate bridges as a cost-effective alternative to traditional bridge and culverts. This isn't specifically focused on relining existing culverts, but the topic is so important right now we didn't want to miss the chance to talk with Chad.
With many pre-engineered designs available, these systems can be fabricated and delivered in a matter of weeks. The conversation will be focused on municipalities and townships utilizing these bridge crossings for canals, pedestrians, creeks, etc. Learn more about the benefits of Contech's Multi-Plate structures during our 1 hour webinar. PDH credits will be available.
In this episode of Reline Unknown, Brett passes the torch to Cassie, who has many years of experience in the field and the industry. We're excited to see where she takes this podcast!

Join us to discuss maintaining the correct pressure when grouting as well as not over loading HDPE. Mike is going to focus on the amount of pressure the liner will realize based on the grout density used to fill the annular space between the liner pipe and the existing host. We will also cover loading at a very basic 30,000 ft view.

Culvert reline is made easy when using Weholite. Offered in sizes up to 132" ID, no host culvert is too big or too challenging. Manufactured to ASTM F894, from advanced, high density polyethylene resin, Weholite will not corrode, rust, or tuberculate, providing exceptional performance over its 100-year design life. Pipe joining is made easy with Weholite threaded joints for sand-tight connections or water-tight using extrusion welding. For environmentally sensitive areas, Weholite can be fabricated with fish baffles, passages or flow attenuators. Selected and approved by DOT's, municipalities, cities, and railroads.

Brian Culich with AP/M Permaform and Kelly Schild with TV Pipe Solutions have spent years developing and writing new specifications for municipal projects. As America’s infrastructure ages, the risk of failures increases. Bridge corrosion, road and utility degradation are becoming an increasing concern for agencies across the United States. Let's face it: corrugated metal, with its propensity to rust and buckle, was not meant to last forever. 20 to 30 years is its designed life. AP/M’s centrifugally cast concrete pipe system was crafted for the structural renewal of culverts and sanitary sewer pipe -- without backhoes, repaving, traffic detours, flooding or hazardous construction.
