Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Horizontal Directional Drilling (HDD) has become one of the fastest-growing trenchless technology construction methods for the installation of underground pipelines and conduits. According to the board of directors of the Ohio Horizontal Directional Drilling Association (OHDDA), there are many HDD specifications employed in Ohio, and these specifications vary significantly in their content and requirements. Consequently, inferior products may have been installed, unnecessary risks may have been taken, and the competition among contractors may have been compromised. Therefore, a HDD specification that provides for high quality installations, allocates risks appropriately, and ensures correct design and installation of product pipes without damaging the roadway is needed. The proposed draft was based on comparison of more than 12 existing HDD specifications with the HDD Good Practice Guidelines and the collective input from professional partners representing the interest of the various entities involved in a typical HDD project. The research team along with the professional partners proposed draft specification for pressurized applications with pipe diameters in the range of 4 inches (10 cm) to 24 inches (60 cm). Installations outside this range of pipe sizes and gravity installations are beyond the scope of the specification. The implementation plan for the draft specification includes ODOT review to ensure it does not conflict with other ODOT specifications, ODOT evaluation of the proposed specification through use on an actual project, feedback from the larger interest groups across the state of Ohio, and update as needed.

Download or read book Pipeline Design for Installation by Horizontal Directional Drilling written by American Society of Civil Engineers. HDD Design Guideline Task Committee and published by Amer Society of Civil Engineers. This book was released on 2005 with total page 67 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume addresses the design of major pipeline or duct segments to be installed by horizontal directional drilling (HDD). This Manual of Practice, which covers topics specifically related to HDD installation, was prepared by a committee of senior engineers who are leaders in the development of HDD techniques and practices. HDD is a trenchless excavation method that is accomplished in three phases and uses a specialized horizontal drilling rig with ancillary tools and equipment. This Manual is meant to be a guide for design engineers with previous experience and knowledge of the HDD installation process and pipeline design methods. Topics covered include: predesign surveys; drilled path design; pipe design; construction impact; and as-built documentation.
Download or read book Trenchless Installation of Conduits Beneath Roadways written by Tom Iseley and published by Transportation Research Board. This book was released on 1997 with total page 88 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This synthesis will be of interest to geologists; geotechnical, construction, and maintenance engineers; other state department of transportation (DOT) personnel involved with the planning, design, and permit issuance for conduits beneath roadways; local transportation agencies; utility contractors and consultants; and trenchless construction equipment manufacturers. It describes the current state of the practice for the use of trenchless technology for installing conduits beneath roadways. Trenchless construction is a process of installing, rehabilitating, or replacing underground utility systems without open-cut excavation. The synthesis is focused on trenchless technology for new installations. This report of the Transportation Research Board describes the trenchless installation technologies (methods, materials, and equipment) currently employed by state DOTs and other agencies to install conduits beneath roadways. The synthesis presents data obtained from a review of the literature and a survey of transportation agencies. For each technology identified, information is provided to describe the range of applications, basis for technique selection, site specific design factors to be considered, relative costs, common environmental issues, and example specifications. In addition, information on emerging technologies and research needs is presented.

Download or read book Fluidic Drag in Horizontal Directional Drilling and Its Application in Specific Energy written by Ashkan Faghih and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 86 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Horizontal Directional Drilling (HDD) is one of the most rapidly growing technologies for utility installation under surface obstacles. The rapid growth in application of HDD has not accompanied the same level of development in engineering design procedures and efficient drilling techniques. Rational engineering design and maximized drill rate are of a great value particularly in longer HDD crossings where the project budgets are in the order of millions of dollars and daily delays cost tens of thousands of dollars (Baumert and Allouche, 2002). To improve predictions of pulling load by current design practices, exact equations for annular flow are derived in this thesis to accurately compute the fluidic drag during HDD operations. Comparisons of the exact solution with the predictions by design procedures such as PRCI and ASTM 1962 reveal that PRCI overestimates the fluidic drag while ASTM F1962 results in a better estimation. To maximize the rate of penetration and identify underground drilling risks, the concept of Specific Energy (SE) of drilling is proposed here to be used in HDD. SE has been implemented successfully in oil and gas industry as a useful efficiency indicator of drilling operations. To calculate the real SE used by the bit to excavate the material, downhole drilling data should be measured during the process. Utilization of sophisticated downhole measuring tools is not economical in HDD. Therefore, a mechanical model is developed to calculate downhole loads and torques using the result of the previous analysis on the fluidic drag. Finally, an example application of SE in HDD is illustrated in a case study and the SE analysis for surface and downhole conditions are presented.
