Abstract

MILLARES, RICO F . College of Engineering and Agro-Industrial Technology, University of the Philippines Los galas. April 2013. Condition Assessment and Rehabilitation Methods for the UPLB Sewer System.

Major Adviser: Dr. Eliseo V. Ana Jr.

The study assessed the structural and hydraulic conditions of the UPLB sewer system and determined the most appropriate pipe investigation and rehabilitation techniques for the system. Lamping method was used for preliminary investigation of the pipes. The pipes were assessed using the Netherlands standards or the NEN 3399 which rates the pipes from condition classes 1 (best) to 5 (worst). Eighty-one sewer reaches (about four kilometers of pipes) were investigated. Condition two which are the pipes in fair condition makes up most of the sample at around 43% of the total length (1700 m). A total of 2041 m of pipe needs cleaning by jetting and rodding to remove the materials that can cause clogging and high flow depth and for pipes that needs full-line inspection and rehabilitation. The most appropriate pipe investigation for full-line inspection would be a CCTV. On the other hand, 902 m needs full-line inspection and 542 m needs major rehabilitation. In the 542 m of pipe, 219 m is deteriorated and can be rehabilitated using reverted liners and the remaining 323 m are either deformed, misaligned, corroded or collapsed pipe which need replacement.
