Critical Components of Storm Pipe Infrastructure Inspection Program

Abstract

Post Installation Programs (PII) of newly installed pipe and asset management/maintenance inspection programs are in various stages of implementation all across the country. It is apparent that both types of inspection programs have some similar components that are necessary for success.

Our discussion and experiences that we will share are based upon over a decade of experience we gained while working with DOT’s all across the country as the developed and implemented their current PII programs. We have been involved with providing training, helping develop and or commenting on proposed program specifications, and even helped provide materials for inspection certification programs for several DOT’s who have implemented a PII program.

Our common sense and systematic approach to this topic will outline the key components of a successful and useful PII program. We will cover current national standards and guidelines that speak to this subject. We will also discuss and provide access to technical documents from the American Concrete Pipe Association that will feel will prove useful and helpful to any community or DOT wishing to develop a PII program or Asset Management program.
