The installation of water and wastewater networks is carried out around the world to a large extent in open cut construction. This module focuses on all of the relevant information relating installation and alignment of the pipes, backfill compaction, alternative backfill materials, and the removal of the shoring.

The embedment consists of bedding, side filling and initial and main cover. The quality of the embedment is significantly influenced by the installation conditions of the pipes. Other topics of this module include flowable fill for trench backfill, optimized installation methods and compaction tests.

After completing this module, you will have a sound knowledge of:

• Rules and regulations;
• Requirements for the embedment zone and compaction of the trench backfill;
• Process sequences of the open cut method;
• Influencing factors to ensure high execution quality on the construction site;
• Recognizing and assessing errors in construction.

The construction of sewers is still often carried out in the form of open cut construction. Depending on the design, this results in different pipe-soil systems with different external loads on the sewer.

After completing this module, you will have a sound knowledge of:

• Rules and regulations;
• Requirements for planning, tendering and construction of the pipeline zone, the shoring and the components and building materials;
• Procedures for dewatering and
• Process sequences of the open construction method.

The construction of sewers is often carried out using the open construction method. Depending on the design, this results in pipe-soil systems with different external loads on the sewer. To understand these relationships, the soil mechanical and hydrogeological principles for characterizing the subsoil are explained.

After completing this module, you will have a sound knowledge of how:

• To differentiate between soil types;
• To identify the influences of grain shape and grain size distribution on the practical construction properties of the subsoil and
• To name the different appearances of water in the subsoil;
• To determine the water permeability of the soil for a constructional assessment of the soil.

This course includes tutorial services and a final examination.

The installation of water pipes, in particular, drains and sewers is worldwide in large part performed using the open cut method. This at first glance "simple" construction method is actually highly complex when used in urban areas and at large depths. The numerous boundary conditions, shoring-, and installation systems require extensive technical knowledge in order to ensure a high quality workmanship.

The course consists of 5 modules on the following topics:

1. Geotechnical and hydrogeological Principles
2. Utility Trench Construction
3. Embedment of Piping
4. Installation of Pipes
5. Occupational Health and Safety around Excavations

The aspects of occupational health and safety that must be taken into account in the context of civil engineering work, especially in the construction of pipelines and sewers using the open cut method, are very diverse. They harbor a considerable potential for danger for those working on the construction site, but also for uninvolved persons.
