Deterioration of the sewers in our cities has produced an urgent requirement for a technically satisfactory cost-effective means of renovating or upgrading existing underground services. One of the most successful methods available is the insertion of a preformed liner into the pipeline with the annular gap being filled with a suitable material.

Details are given of manufacture and installation and design methods are discussed.
