In this study, we suggested the jacking method of small diameter sewer pipe for improving workability of the pipe at the weak ground. The jacking method minimizes the space and time in constructing small diameter sewer pipe. In addition, to use this method do not cause road restrictions during the construction period. In this study, the construction process of the small diameter sewer pipe is explained. In addition, to ensure the safety during construction, the design consideration such as earth pressure and the jacking force of the steel pipe, and safety against boiling of the ground were examined. For verify the safety of this jacking method, it is necessary to carry out an experiment to estimate the safety of main pipe under construction.

Recent frequent occurrence of urban sinkhole brings a need for the periodic inspection of sewer pipelines. Sewer inspection using a CCTV device needs a lot of time and efforts. Many of previous studies which have focused to reduce the laborious tasks are mainly interested in the developments of image processing S/W and inspection H/W. Nevertheless, there has been no attempt to find meaningful information from the existing CCTV images stored by the sewer maintenance manager. In this paper, we carried out a study about the construction of unfolding image of sewer video image. In general, the analysis results show that the image development is judged to have been well represented. It is expected to be a reference to the basic research of panoramic image.

Recently, sewer–pipe constructions replacing deteriorated pipes are currently underway in the downtown area. To resolve many problems in the conventional method of open-cut construction, lining-board system using light-weight GFRP panels is developed. The pultruded GFRP panels can be successfully used for the developed lining-board system as temporary decks and retaining walls in virtue of light weight, high strength and high durability. In this paper, the structural safety and serviceability of the lining-board system are examined through FE analyses and experiments. Further more, a field application of the lining-board system is presented. The field application shows that quality and environment of construction can be significantly improved.
