Maintaining Sewage Flow During Construction • Connections to Existing Sewer • Manhole Connections or Rehab Work • Rehabilitation – Bypass Pumping
Connection to Existing Sewer – Maintain Sewage Flow • Construct New MH over Existing Pipe • Keep Flow within Pipe • Modify Channel/Base • Cut and Remove Top of Existing Pipe
Connection to Existing Sewer – Maintain Sewage Flow • Existing Sewer Pipe
Connection to Existing Sewer – Maintain Sewage Flow • Existing Sewer Pipe • Add Manhole Base& Shaft
Connection to Existing Sewer – Maintain Sewage Flow • Existing Sewer Pipe • Add Manhole Base& Shaft • Modify Channel &Side Pipe
Connection to Existing Sewer – Maintain Sewage Flow • Existing Sewer Pipe • Add Manhole Base& Shaft • Modify Channel &Side Pipe • Cut & Remove Topof Pipe
Manhole Connections or Rehab Work Key Issues: • MH Access (cover size) • Confined Space Entry • Sizing of Flow-thru Tubes • Confirmation of Back-up
Manhole Work Flow-thru Tubing
Manhole Work Flow-thru Tubing
Rehabilitation – Bypass Pumping Key: No Sewer Spills
Key Elements of Bypass Plan • Bypass Pumps • Bypass Piping • Redundancy • Spill Prevention & Response Plan • Noise Monitoring • Odor Monitoring • Monitoring Systems
Bypass Pumps • Capacity – Typical Sewage Flow & Peak Flow Rate • Suction Supply • Pumping Equipment (submersible, self-priming centrifugal) • Valving
Capacity – Typical Sewage Flow & Peak Flow Rate Weekly Flow Trend
Key Design Issues • Confirm Capacity • Location of Bypass Pumping & Piping • Traffic Control • Duration of Bypass • Contractor Submittals: bypass plan, noise, odor, monitoring, and redundancy
