Presentation Description
Boring is becoming a more popular method for installation of reinforced concrete pipelines. Learn about the basics of what you need to specify for materials, suggestions for installation methods and construction laydown areas and staging. Participants will walk away with the five steps or five key items they need to address for a successful project.

Guidelines
NOTE:  For this given presentation, we want to ensure these requirements/parameters are met.
We would like a presenter to explain the project planning steps, pipe standards including dimensional tolerances that are important from a reinforced concrete pipe perspective and why, and construction planning and processes. Engineers do not normally dictate means and methods yet their plans need to reflect adequate area for staging and laydown areas for competitive construction pricing. Participants will walk away with the five steps or five key items they need to address for a successful project.

Presentation Description
Pipe Jacking is also becoming a more widely used installation method. Learn about the basics of what you need to specify for materials, suggestions for installation methods and construction laydown areas and staging. Participants will walk away with the five steps or five key items they need to address for a successful project.

Presentation Description
The concepts of resilience and sustainability are not new to anyone, but the significance and importance of these terms has grown exponentially in just the last decade. While these terms are easy to talk about in a philosophical sense, we must grow our understanding of how to implement resilient and sustainable principles in design, specifically related to drainage infrastructure.

Presentation Description
ASTM Committee C13 on Concrete Pipe was formed in 1931. C13 meets once a year, usually in September, with approximately 100 members attending over three days of technical meetings. The Committee, with membership of approximately 200, currently has jurisdiction of over 55 standards published in the Annual Book of ASTM Standards, Volume 4.05. C13 has 9 technical subcommittees that maintain jurisdiction over these standards. Learn how you can join and participate to benefit our industry.
