Decision model for assessment of underground pipeline rehabilitation options
Sewers are often located in metropolitan areas with high population density. Thus, the traditional practice of open-cutting roadways and streets to repair existing or install new sewers may be impractical and sometimes impossible. Trenchless technology (TT) offers a wide range of methods, materials, and equipment to install new or to rehabilitate existing underground pipeline and utility systems. However, it is necessary to evaluate the suitability of an automated system on a project-to-project basis by considering all the criteria and subcriteria important for the decision task. This paper describes a decision support model and two case studies for technology selection that also facilitate the assessment of "risk" in the context of trenchless construction. The proposed model is called AUTOCOP (AUTomation Option evaluation of COnstruction Processes).
