Rapid Microtunneling Installation of 1050-mm (42-in.) Fiberglass-Reinforced Polymer Mortar Sewer Pipe
The Goleta West Sanitary District (GWSD) had a need to upgrade their 840 mm (33 inch) Mesa Road Trunk sewer to a new 1050 mm (42 inch) sewer. The original trunk sewer, constructed in the 1960’s, was also routed through wetlands and so the new trunk would relocate the new sewer in Mesa Road (a main access to the University of California in Santa Barbara “USCSB” campus). Design began by CDM Smith in 2009 and was originally intended to be constructed using open trench construction. Based on geotechnical data supplied by Fugro West, Inc., which indicated poor soils and high groundwater in certain areas, it was decided that a large portion of the project 488 m (1,600 feet) could be constructed using microtunneling and Hobas pipe, so the design shifted to include this concept in final design. The project also includes a large amount of open trench construction 238 m (780 feet) which required an extensive permitting effort, but this paper only addresses the tunneled portion of work.
