Trenchless Technology

WATER DISTRIBUTION SYSTEMS | SANITARY SEWER SYSTEMS | STORM WATER CULVERTS

Trenchless Technology includes the development of specifications, design of liner wall thickness, testing of materials, and expert opinion of completed work. Brian M. Rohan, PE has been the task group chairman for ASTM Standards in this field.

Trenchless Technology Pipe Rehabilitation Projects Include:

  • Sanitary and Storm Water Sewers
    • Finite Element Analysis
  • Manhole and Laterals
  • Water Mains, Force Mains, & Reclaim Water

Rohan Engineering, P.C. provides professional engineering services for pipe evaluation and replacement, and "trenchless" pipe rehabilitation throughout North America. With over 40 years of pipe design experience, Rohan Engineering is established as an authority on evaluation, design and construction supervision for Slip-Line, Cured-In-Place, Deformed-Reformed, Folded-Formed, Epoxy Lining, and Shotcrete Technologies. 

Rohan Engineering has been responsible for recommendation and design of the most appropriate and cost effective "trenchless technology" for various pipe and manhole rehabilitation applications.
