Lined Manholes and Maintenance Holes

Lined Manholes and Maintenance Holes

Lined maintenance holes are essential for protecting underground infrastructure from chemical corrosion, moisture infiltration, and abrasion. At Engineered Containment, we recommend using embedded liners like AGRU UltraGrip and Solmax StudLiner for long-term durability. These liners form a permanent mechanical bond with concrete, ensuring that the structure remains intact even in harsh environments. While some use epoxy coatings, we’ve found that epoxy can easily delaminate over time, leading to potential structural failure. Embedded liners, however, provide superior protection, offering enhanced chemical resistance and longevity in maintenance holes and manholes alike.

Growing Population in Canada's Prairies

As the population in Canada’s Prairie provinces continues to rise, driven by economic opportunities and affordable living, cities like Calgary, Edmonton, Saskatoon, and Winnipeg are expanding rapidly. This growth is placing significant pressure on essential infrastructure, particularly wastewater treatment plants and trunk lines, which are struggling to keep up with demand.

Engineered Containment is addressing this critical need by providing specialized services in the design and installation of corrosion-resistant liners for wastewater systems. Our solutions ensure that wastewater treatment plants and trunk lines are built to last, offering enhanced protection against corrosive environments and reducing long-term maintenance costs. By future-proofing these vital systems, we help municipalities accommodate population growth while safeguarding public health and the environment.

Lined Microtunnel Pipe and Lined Jacking Pipe
Rachel Rae Rachel Rae

Lined Microtunnel Pipe and Lined Jacking Pipe

Lined concrete microtunnel and jacking pipes are essential solutions in modern underground infrastructure projects. Combining the robust structural strength of concrete with advanced internal linings, these pipes offer superior resistance to corrosion from harsh environments, such as wastewater systems and chemical exposure. The concrete structure provides the load-bearing capacity needed to withstand external pressures and the installation stresses of trenchless methods like microtunneling and pipe jacking. Meanwhile, the internal lining—typically made from materials like HDPE—shields the pipe from internal corrosion, significantly extending its lifespan.

In applications like sewer systems, stormwater drainage, and industrial pipelines, lined concrete pipes are an excellent choice for long-term durability and reduced maintenance costs. Their dual benefits of strength and corrosion resistance make them indispensable for demanding infrastructure projects.

Hydrostatic Pressure Ratings - Concrete Protective Liner
Rachel Rae Rachel Rae

Hydrostatic Pressure Ratings - Concrete Protective Liner

Concrete protective liners (CPL) are essential for safeguarding structures against various environmental and chemical threats. One critical aspect of these liners is their ability to withstand hydrostatic pressure, which is the force exerted by a fluid at equilibrium due to gravity. Ensuring that a CPL can handle the appropriate level of hydrostatic pressure is crucial for the longevity and safety of the structure it protects.

Thermoplastic Lining for Structures

In the realm of construction specifications, the name of a product can vary, but its purpose remains constant. As Shakespeare eloquently put it, "A rose by any other name would smell as sweet." Similarly, whether referred to as a thermoplastic liner, geomembrane liner, or concrete protective liner, the function of protecting concrete structures is unchanged. Thus, understanding the various terms used in specifications ensures that the essential quality and integrity of the protection are maintained.
