Structural analysis and renovation design of ageing sewers: design theories and case studies

In this pioneering work, Z. Shi, M. Nakano and Y. Takahashi present a systematic treatment of structural analysis and renovation design of ageing sewers by the composite pipe construction method as semi-composite structures, including testing and construction guidelines.

The leading authors have engaged in designing the renovation of ageing sewers since the mid 1990s, and the total length of renovation construction has exceeded 700 km.
