What is Jacking?
The act of pushing a pipe horizontally through soil
without an open excavation.

Why Jack?
Minimal to no social costs
◦ traffic impact
Construction savings
◦ Minimal road repair or
environmental impact
◦ Shorter schedule
◦ Lower class of pipe

Engineering and Design – Conduits, Culverts and Pipes
By US Army Corps of Engineers – Doc. No. EM 1110-2-2902
Life Cycle Design:
Concrete – Most studies estimate product service life for
concrete pipe to be between 70 and 100 years.
Steel – CSP usually fails due to corrosion of the invert or the
exterior of the pipe. Properly applied coatings can extend the
product life to at least 50 years for most environments.
Plastic – Many different materials fall under the general category
of plastic. Each of these materials may have some unique
applications where it is suitable or unsuitable. Performance history
of plastic pipe is limited. A designer should not expect a product
service life of greater than 50 years.

“Sinkholes”

Common themes in these events:
◦ Road closure for weeks/months
◦ Majority were flexible pipe failures
◦ Risk to public safety
◦ “Caused by severe rainfall”
◦ “The sinkhole caused a sewer pipe failure”
◦ “Aging infrastructure”
◦ “Now have to look left, right, and down when crossing the street”
“Sinkholes”
