Synopsis

The practice of constructing pipe lines under highways or railways without interference with traffic was first initiated by the Northern Pacific Railroad between 1896 and 1900. Since then, this method of construction has become standard accepted practice; unique construction methods have been devised and the work may be accomplished at relatively low cost. This manual compiles generally accepted procedures based on the study of a large number of installations over a period of years. Contents: I. Jacking reinforced concrete pipe lines; II. Random notes on jacking; III. That first pipe in a jacking installation; IV. Concrete sewer pipe jacked into place through hardpan; V. North Carolina jacking project is a simple story with familiar problems; VI. Open trench, jacking and tunneling on Muscatine sewer project; Vii.
