Classification and characteristics of techniques for renovation, repair and replacement of drains and sewers

This European Standard specifies a system for the classification of trenchless techniques for renovation, repair and replacement on the same line of drains and sewers outside buildings, operated under gravity or pressure, including pipes, connections and manholes. It defines and describes families of techniques and their different generic methods and materials used.
This European Standard does not apply for replacement by open trenching according to EN 1610 and trenchless construction and testing of drains and sewers as new construction off-the-line of the existing drain or sewer according to EN 12889.
This European Standard does not apply for the specification of requirements for specific products.
For each technique family it lists relevant existing standards, materials and applications and outlines characteristics including installation aspects, structural and hydraulic capabilities and site impact.
This standard does not apply to any work required on the existing pipe prior to renovation, repair or replacement.
This European Standard provides information needed to determine viable options for identification of the optimal technique with regard to a given set of renovation, repair or replacement objectives.
NOTE   It is the responsibility of the designer to choose and design the renovation and repair systems.
It does not specify the calculation methods to determine, for each viable technique, the required amount of material needed to secure the desired performance of the pipeline to be rehabilitated.

EN 15885:2018 (E) 3 European foreword This document (EN 15885:2018) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 165 “Waste water engineering”, the secretariat of which is held by DIN. This European Standard shall be given the status of a national standard, either by publication of an identical text or by endorsement, at the latest by May 2019, and conflicting national standards shall be withdrawn at the latest by May 2019. Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights. CEN shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. This document supersedes EN 15885:2010. The main changes with respect to EN 15885:2010 are: a) new Clause 6 "Classification of trenchless replacement techniques for drains and sewers " added; b) definitions adapted to EN ISO
11295:2017; c) Table 1 to Table 9 supplemented by features "Installation equipment", "Surface area" and "Excavation"; d) images partly adapted to EN ISO
11295:2017; e) sequence of sub-clauses 5.7 and 5.8 exchanged; f) technique family “Repair with trowelled material” (previous sub-clause 6.4) renamed “Repair with trowelled or moulded material”, and distinction between these techniques and Repair by injection clarified by extended text in new 7.2 and 7.4; g) editorial changes. This document refers to existing EN product standards to the extent available for the techniques and materials covered. It provides an overview of trenchless methods used for renovation and repair of drains and sewers, and for their replacement on the same line, regardless of the material used. In respect of sewer renovation
and replacement techniques using plastics materials only, it reproduces definitions and other information (but no requirements) contained in EN ISO 11295. Due to their continuous development the most up-to-date information on these particular techniques may be contained in either this document or EN ISO 11295, whichever is the latest edition. For management and control of rehabilitation activities in drains and sewers a European Standard EN 14654-2, Management and control of operational activities in drain and sewer systems outside buildings — Part 2: Rehabilitation is available. According to the CEN-CENELEC Internal Regulations, the national standards organisations of the following countries are bound to implement this European Standard: Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Serbia, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Turkey and the United Kingdom.

This clause establishes a classification of renovation techniques into families, where renovation is applied to continuous lengths of drain or sewer usually between two or more access points. Individual techniques shall be classified into families according to 5.2 to 5.9 where the different renovation technique families are defined and their respective features, including materials, applications, as well as geometric, performance and installation characteristics, are described. NOTE Figures 2 to 16 provide schematic illustrations of each family but do not include all necessary equipment. SIST EN 15885:2019



EN 15885:2018 (E) 10
a Other renovation techniques, which do not fit into the above families, are outside the scope of this European Standard which covers only technique families commonly available at the time of drafting. Figure 1 — Renovation technique families 5.2 Lining with continuous pipes Lining is carried out with a continuous pipe or a pipe made continuous, typically by butt-fusion, prior to insertion, where the cross section of the pipe used for lining remains unchanged. This technique is often referred to as slip-lining. Two methods of lining with continuous pipes are identified: — Method A: The lining pipe is smaller in diameter than the internal diameter of the host pipe to facilitate installation, and the host pipe itself is nominally round and without geometric defects. — Method B: The lining pipe is smaller in diameter than the internal diameter of the host pipe to facilitate installation, but the host pipe may have geometric defects that are corrected by using a ‘re-rounding pulling head’. A schematic representation of lining with continuous pipes, with re-rounding of existing pipeline, is shown in Figure 2. Features common to both methods are described in Table 1.

EN 15885:2018 (E) 13 5.3 Lining with close-fit pipes Lining is carried out with a continuous pipe for which the effective maximum external diameter is reduced to facilitate installation and reverted after installation to provide a close fit to the existing pipe. Schematic representations of the following two possible methods of linings with close-fit pipes are shown in Figures 3 and 4. Features are described in Table 2. — Method A: reduction in the pipe manufacturing plant; the pipe is usually supplied coiled on a reel from which it is directly inserted; — Method B: reduction on site (typically applied to pressure pipelines only); the pipe is fed through diameter reduction or folding equipment and simultaneously inserted.
