TRENCHLESS | NO-DIG NORTH 2025 PREVIEW
Introduction to New Installations:
As one of the two ‘Introductory’ courses presented at the event, this short course is pitched for newcomers to the industry and others seeking a refresher run-through on trenchless technology methods. In this session, the focus is on techniques for new construction – microtunnelling, HDD, pipejacking, auger boring, and pipe ramming.
Introduction to Rehabilitation: This Introductory short course is also suited to both newcomers to the industry as well as those interested in a refresher course. The session on trenchless technology methods has a focus on rehabilitation, providing an overview of the methods available to public works and sewer agencies to rehabilitate water, sewer and gas systems without the need for excavation.
