Ahead of the curve

Aussie Trenchless has developed its pipe segment technology to be suitable for any size of circular and non-circular pipe.

“Mr Meredith has seen significant growth in the implementation of trenchless solutions in Australia and abroad. He and his team offer practical advice to infrastructure owners and contractors on a variety of underground pipeline rehabilitation techniques.”

PST is specifically designed for traversable trunk sewers and stormwater culverts.

The team at Aussie Trenchless is passionate about progressing future infrastructure opportunities and accomplishing superior outcomes. Headquartered in New South Wales, Director Chris Meredith and the team are committed to pioneering state-of-theart solutions and furthering businesses in the trenchless industry.

Founded in 2014, the company offers a range of unique products in Australia and internationally. Mr Meredith is something of an industry mogul, with 40 years in utilities and having pioneered the development of several well-known rehabilitation methods through decades of contracting.

Throughout his years in the industry, Mr Meredith has seen significant growth in the implementation of trenchless solutions in Australia and abroad. He and his team offer practical advice to infrastructure owners and contractors on a variety of underground pipeline rehabilitation techniques.

Importantly, they offer hands-on service for industry contractors backed by years of expertise. They have developed multiple complementary technologies for underground service installation.

PST Pipe segment technology (PST) is one solution for pipe rehabilitation that is easy to build and fast to install. It is specifically designed for traversable trunk sewers and stormwater culverts.

Pipe lining technologies have the capacity to substantially increase the service life of pipes, and this method is ideal for man entry pipeline rehabilitation for gravity sewer mains. Installation can take place in low flow conditions, and the technology has low capital costs and a small site footprint.

PST lining panels are made of polypropylene material, providing a smooth surface with effective hydraulic performance capacities. Significantly, PST is semi-transparent, mitigating risk and removing guesswork during the completion of gap grouting works.

PST panels are lightweight, easy to install, and ideal for positioning in tight locations, with the product suitable for all pipe types, including round, ovoid and box culverts. Segment pipe rehabilitation technologies are recommended for sewers with complicated and nonstandard shapes.

PST panels are ideal for positioning in tight locations.

Lining segments reflect the shape of the host pipe and therefore can be both circular and non-circular. Lining of access chambers can also be achieved using PST segments.

The ring stiffness of PST can be enhanced or altered by attaching circumferential bars, making the product suitable for installing in deep sewers. PST is a nimble segmental lining system with a grouted annulus gap, versatile in tight access locations.

A static design is completed to verify conformance of the PST lining structure in these types of applications. The technology does not require advanced installation machinery and has been used to rehabilitate deteriorated stormwater and sewer culverts.

Segment pipe rehabilitation technologies are recommended for sewers with nonstandard shapes.
