After years of collaboration and development with multiple authorities, a new learning resource for solving Infiltration and Inflow (I&I) issues in sanitary and storm water systems is available effective June 28, 2017. Fundamentals of Municipal Grouting is a 16-module video series designed as an interactive learning experience for those who need-to-know and want-to-solve the I&I problems destroying our underground systems.

Beginning with the History of Sewers (Lesson 1) through Standard Specifications (Lesson 16), the video series delves deep into grout chemistry and safety, conveyance technologies and techniques, and holistically targets all infiltration points of entry: mainline sewers, manholes, service laterals and connections. Produced in high-definition broadcast quality and comprehensive in content, this video series is unlike any other resource serving the trenchless technology industry.

Best news of all, access is complementary. Municipal stakeholders and specialty contractors now have a self-paced training and education resource to enable both technical and operational personnel at no cost. For engineers requiring PDH credits, a $49 admin fee is required. When the owner, engineer, and contractor share a common knowledge source and execute accordingly, quality outcome is the result.

Municipal Grouting is a multi-vendor solution. After years of collaborating on grout schools, webinars, and live field-day demonstrations, experts from Avanti International (material producer), Aries Industries (grout truck manufacturer), and Logiball (remote packer manufacturer) joined forces in the name of education to produce this video series. According to Daniel Magill, president of Avanti, “For over a decade, these three companies have prioritized education by hosting grout schools, webinars, and live field-day presentations.

Video-based training is a perfectly natural extension of this education initiative and an important asset to teach the fundamentals of injection grouting to specifying engineers, municipal stakeholders, as well as the management, estimators, and technician teams of specialty contracting organizations. Beyond the fundamentals, our hands-on grout schools will continue to provide personalized instruction throughout the year. Fundamentals of Municipal Grouting is a perfect pre-requisite and base knowledge for grout schools.”

Infiltration is destroying the integrity of our collection systems. Municipalities are looking for the most economical, practical, and long-term solution to reduce maintenance and eliminate 50% of the flow to treatment facilities (according to EPA). Fundamentals of Municipal Grouting is a meaningful step to understanding the practice, the technologies, and the science behind injection grouting.
