Abstract
An Environmentally Friendly Method of Steel Big-Diameter Pipeline Installation in Urban Terrain
Incoming article date: 06.11.2021The article offers an environmentally friendly method to assemble pipes into section in order to build, to reconstruct or to fully repair pipelines both in urban communities and outside them eliminating load-carrying devices. The technique is realized with a specially designed assembly line (DAL) consisting of similar devices positioned along one line. The proposed assembly line is executed as multi-functional since the complete range of production processes can be performed with it, starting from unloading pipe sections to laying a ready section into a trench or onto an elevated pipe pier. The offered engineering solution can be used in all places. 3-D spatial models are presented in the article for illustrative purposes.
