This instruction book is for your crews. Distribute it to help them install Contech® ULTRA FLO® and CMP Liner pipe correctly.
ULTRA FLO is a spiral ribbed steel or aluminum segmental pipe that is inserted (sliplined) into an existing deteriorated pipe or
into a casing pipe or tunnel as a carrier pipe. ULTRA FLO features very low wall friction to provide the greatest water ow and
is the most common metal reline pipe. In addition to ULTRA FLO, other corrugated metal pipe (CMP) products can be used
for liner pipe. These additional CMP products include SmoothCor™, HEL-COR®, MULTI-PLATE®, Aluminum Structural Plate and
Tunnel Liner Plate. You Contech representative can assist in using these guidelines along with other CMP products.
Don’t assume experienced workers know all the answers. Review these instructions with your supervisors and crews. It can
mean a safer and better job for you and your customer.
We recommend holding a preconstruction meeting with your Contech representative and all interested parties to ensure
everyone involved in your project has a high level of understanding on what means and methods will be used to prepare for,
install and grout the new structure(s).
If you have any questions about these instructions, call your Contech Representative.

INSTRUCTIONS
be followed for safe handling and installation of
ULTRA FLO and CMP Liner Pipe. Failure to follow
these instructions can result in serious injury or
death and/or damage to the pipe.
UNLOADING AND HANDLING
The following equipment is recommended for unloading pipe
or pipe bundles:
• Forklift
• Front-end loader with fork adapters
• Backhoe with fork adapters
• Cranes
• Non-metallic slings
Other unloading methods such as lifting lugs, chains, wire
rope, cinching or hooks in the end of the pipe should not be
used.
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
1. Only trained and authorized equipment operators are to
be permitted to unload the trailer.
2. Wear approved safety hat and shoes, gloves and eye
protection.
3. Pipe ends may be sharp. Workers handling pipe
must wear gloves made from cut-resistant materials.
4. Park the truck and trailer on level ground before you start
unloading. It is the responsibility of the consignee to
direct the driver to level ground for parking the truck.
5. Keep all unauthorized persons clear of the area when the
driver releases the binders from the trailer and during
unloading.
6. Sometimes pipes are bundled together on the
truck with steel straps. Do not cut the steel strapping
around the bundles until the bundles have been
placed on level ground, blocked or secured, and will
not be moved again as a unit. It is recommended
that the steel strapping be cut with appropriate sized
cutting tools. Stand to the side when cutting a strap.
Always be aware that pipe may move, roll or fall
when a strap is cut.
GENERAL
1. Contech recommends the use of non-metallic slings for
all pipe handling requirements.
2. Hooks, chains or wire rope may damage the pipe.
3. Do not push bundles off the trailer or
permit pipe to drop to the ground.
9. Do not stand or ride on the load of pipe
while it is being unloaded. Do not stand beneath or
near the pipe while it is being unloaded.
10. If unloading at multiple drop-off points, secure the
remaining load and pallets between drop off points.
Always unload the top pallets or bundles rst.
11. The contractor shall be responsible for the safety
of his/her employees and agents. Adequate safety
indoctrination is his responsibility and shall be given to
all personnel employed by his rm.
12. Safe practices on construction work as outlined in the
latest edition of the “Manual of Accident Prevention
in Construction,” published by the Associated General
Contractors, shall be used as a guide and observed.
13. The contractor shall comply with all applicable city, state,
and federal safety codes in effect in the area where he is
performing the work. This conformance shall include the
provisions of the current issue of the “OSHA Safety and
Health Standards (29 CFR 1926/1910)” as published by
the U.S. Department of Labor.
7. Do not lift bundles or sections of pipe
by the steel strapping around the bundles.
8. Know the capabilities and rated load capacities of your
lifting equipment. Never exceed them.

can damage the new pipe.
the inside diameter (ID) of the existing pipe at the worst
location and compare the dimension to the liner pipe
outside diameter (OD). Depending on the condition of
the existing pipe and the obstructions present, it may
be desirable to pull a trial liner or mandrel of the same
outside diameter as the liner pipe (outside diameters are
listed on Page 19). The trial liner may be a short section
of ULTRA FLO or CMP pipe and should be attached to
pulling cables at each end. If external bands are used, be
sure there is adequate clearance for the band hardware.
SLIPLINING PROCESS
The best specications allow for creativity on how to go
about the reline process. When designed correctly, a project
will have critical performance requirements and information
within the project documents that will provide limitations,
guidance, and perhaps some suggestions on how to
approach the project.
The information contained herein is intended to introduce
some of the techniques that have been used successfully
in the past, and to provide limited guidance on what
needs to be evaluated when considering a particular reline
project. This information does not represent project specic
recommendations from Contech and cannot be construed as
a complete set of guidelines on how to successfully reline a
drainage structure.
Complete and independent project specic evaluations must
be conducted by a qualied contractor prior to them drawing
any conclusions about how to approach a reline project.
The most common method of slipling with CMP is to place
liner pipe one section at a time through the inlet or outlet
end (for culverts) or through an insertion pit (for closed
systems) and to push or pull the single sections into nal
position. Handling just one section at a time is normally the
most efcient as it minimizes the amount of weight being
pushed or pulled.

EXCAVATING INSERTION PITS
ULTRA FLO and CMP liner pipe are installed from an excavated insertion pit or other location allowing access to the existing pipe
(i.e. manholes, culvert ends).
When insertion pit locations have not been designated by the engineer or owner, the following conditions should be considered
when selecting locations:
• Changes in line and grade
• Large joint offsets
• Severely deteriorated pipe sections
• Manholes being replaced
• Service laterals
• Pushing and pulling distances
• Accessibility (structures, trafc and existing utilities)
• Soil conditions
It is possible to reduce the number of insertion pits by sliplining in both directions from one location. Depending on the pipe
diameter, the condition of the existing line or casing pipe and compressive/jacking loads, sliplining up to 2,000 feet or more
from a single location is possible. In some cases (tunnels, long runs of large diameter pipe, etc.) it may be desirable to insert
and position individual pipe sections into the existing pipe and then join the sections together to extend the allowable work
distance from one location.
After insertion pit locations have been designated or selected, the required size of the pit should be determined.
ULTRA FLO and helical CMP comes in lengths up to 40 feet. Shorter lengths are available for easier handling. Structural plate
CMP lengths vary by material. The insertion pit length should allow for the longest length of pipe being used, clearance for
joining pipe sections, adequate space for pushing/pulling equipment and trench sheeting or shoring. The width of the insertion
pit should be sufcient to accommodate the new pipe diameter plus provide safe working room for the crew. The depth of the
insertion pit should allow for exposing and removing the existing pipe’s top down to the spring line. The remaining bottom
half of the existing pipe can serve as an open channel to maintain sewage ow. Bypass pumping is generally not required for
segmental sliplining. A clean, level work area between the existing pipe and trench shoring will prevent dirt and debris from
being washed back into the opened pipe.

Page 6
ULTRA FLO AND CMP LINING INSERTION
After the existing line has been properly prepared for liner
pipe insertion and the insertion pit(s) have been excavated,
liner insertion (installation) can begin. ULTRA FLO or CMP liner
pipe can be either pushed or pulled through the existing line.
External skids are recommended to protect the liner pipe
from abrasion during the insertion process. Factory attached
metal skids are available through Contech as an option.
Suitable skids can also be developed and installed at the
jobsite by the installer.
Pushing Method
1. Bands connecting pipe segments may be either internal
or external. External bands must be assembled outside of
the host pipe. Be sure there is adequate clearance in the
annulus between the liner and the host pipe.
2. Internal bands can be assembled after the segment is
positioned in the host pipe. After grouting the internal
band can be removed or re-used.
3. If internal bands are used, the ULTRA FLO or CMP liner
pipe will have annular re-rolled ends that will accept a
corrugated band. If the liner pipes are match-marked
position them correctly, otherwise either end can be
inserted as the leading end. Guide rails will help the
liner pipe ride over small joint misalignments and other
small obstructions and inconsistencies in the existing
pipe. If liner passage is questionable, a steel cable can
be threaded through the liner pipe during installation
and attached to the leading edge. This allows the liner
pipe to be retracted (pulled backward) if the liner pipe
gets caught on an obstruction. A pushing ring should
be used in the tail end to evenly distribute the load from
the pushing equipment. The pushing ring can be a short,
sacricial piece of liner pipe or a timber frame.
Pulling Method
The pulling method is similar to the pushing method. A steel
cable is threaded through the existing pipe and attached to
a pulling ring or plate positioned against the far end of the
liner pipe or to the skid rails or pulling hardware that can be
attached to the pipe segments. Pulling hardware must be
positioned at or near the invert.
The pipe pushing/pulling loads should be monitored.
Excessive force can “telescope” pipe joints and/or buckle the
liner pipe. On some installations, small diameter (1” to 2”)
plastic pipe can be installed as runner rails.
The cable is attached to a winch assembly to facilitate pulling
the liner through the existing pipe section. After each pull,
the steel cable is disconnected from the pulling ring and
threaded through the next liner pipe section to be joined.
After the pulling ring is reconnected to the cable, the process
is repeated.
4. See the “Assembling Gasketed Joints”
section for more information on joining
pipe sections.
5. Bulkheads should be formed to seal the
annular space between the liner pipe and
the existing pipe at each culvert end, all
manhole and insertion pit entries and
exits as required. If the entire annular
space between bulkheads is to be lled
with grout, then bulkheads should
be constructed to provide adequate
resistance to grouting pressures and
to provide appropriate vent and
drainage tubes. When service and lateral
connections are to be connected, it may
be desirable to complete downstream
bulkheads for the line segment after
connections have been reinstated to
provide an outlet for sewage/drainage
between the pipes.

ASSEMBLING GASKETED JOINTS
ULTRA FLO and CMP liner pipe gaskets are tted on the
annular re-rolled end of the pipe. Follow these steps:
Internal Bands
External Bands
1. Conrm that there is enough clearance for the pipe with
the band and clamp to pass through the host pipe.
2. Lubricate gaskets and outside of pipe. Gaskets tend to
get stiff in cold weather.
3. Remove any foreign matter that might be lodged
between the pipe and the band.
4. Position gaskets around and into the rst annular
corrugation of the pipe end.
5. Snap the gasket several times to seat into the
corrugation.
6. Lubricate the inside of the band.
7. Check the bars on the band clamp for position and align
as needed.
8. Use seam sealant tape at the band laps
9. Align band clamps and position band laps. Band
corrugation should be located in the second annular
corrugation next to the gasket. Hand-tighten bolts.
10. While tightening the bolts, adjust the band by tapping to
seat the band in corrugations.
11. Torque bolts between 25’ and 30’-pounds and inspect for
adequate seating of the band in the corrugations.
1. After two liner
pipe segments
are positioned
check the spacing
between the
rst annular
corrugation on
either side of the
joint.
2. Clean the
corrugations and
remove any foreign matter.
3. Place a at gasket evenly across the joint. Mastic or spray
adhesive may be used to tack the gasket in place.
4. Lubricate the overlap section of the band.
5. Locate the corrugations and position the internal band
over the pipe joint.
6. Turn the bolts to expand the band. Tap the band to make
necessary adjustments and seat the corrugations.
7. If any gaps are detected, plug with oakum, silicone
sealant or similar material.
8. After grouting the internal bands may be removed and
reused. Be sure to clean all surfaces and threads before
reusing. Inspect gaskets for reuse. Plan on having extra
gaskets as some may be damaged beyond reuse during
grouting and removal of the band.
FIELD CUTTING PIPE
If ULTRA FLO or CMP liner pipe is eld cut, the annular re-
rolled ends may be removed. Bands and gaskets may not seal
the joints to keep uid grout in place. All voids under the
band will have to be plugged prior to grouting. Field cutting
should only be done at the end of pipe runs.
1. The recommended cutting tool is a chop saw and
abrasive saw blade. Refer to the Operating Instructions
from the saw manufacturer for additional information.
2. Blade thickness should be no less than 1/8” thick and is
recommended to be made of 2-ply material that is used
to cut steel pipe (see gure 1).
3. Use the leading edge of the blade to cut into the ribs of
the pipe.
4. Bury the blade as much as possible into the pipe as you
proceed.
5. The alternative cutting tool is a handheld reciprocating
saw with bi-metal blade suited for cutting steel.
Always use safety glasses when cutting ULTRA FLO
and CMP pipe and use protective gloves in case
sharp edges are exposed.

BRACING & BLOCKING THE NEW PIPE
Flotation
Bracing and blocking isn’t always the best option but it is
often the quickest and lowest risk way to get the structure
grouted. Quick is a relative term here, since multiple grout
stages and balanced, controlled grout placement are usually
required. The notable exception is when a foaming agent is
used to lighten the uid unit weight of the grout, in which
case the dead weight of the new pipe and perhaps sand bags
in the invert can offset the buoyancy forces.
Another possible alternative to full bracing and blocking is
to oat the new structure to the crown of the existing. This
can be done with little hydraulic impact on lengthy structures
because the grades at the inlet and outlet ends can be
transitioned with appropriate blocking/bracing while most of
the structure can be allowed to oat. When this technique
is used, care must be taken to keep the joints sealed and to
control the shape of the new structure against the buoyant
loads by strutting the inside (as opposed to running a brace
through the top of the structure. Floating to the crown of the
old structure might also be a good option when an increase
in elevation of the overall invert grade line of the structure
doesn’t negatively impact the hydraulic performance.
When project plans and specications require the liner pipe
to be positioned on the invert of the existing pipe, otation
of the liner pipe resulting from grouting operations should be
addressed. Depending on the type of grout and the grouting
method being used, it may be necessary to perform one or
more of the following to offset buoyant forces on the pipe:
1. Fill the liner pipe with water, partially or fully, depending
on the grout density and grout lift thickness. For
monolithic grouting, the liner pipe should be full of
water, and the grout density must be lower than that of
the pipe when full of water.
2. Stage grout with a suitable lift thickness, depending on
grout density.
3. Attach blocking or spacers to the pipe exterior with
strapping.
4. Use internal jacks that pass through a liner grout port (12
o’clock position) to offset buoyant forces.
HOW TO DETERMINE BUOYANT LOADS
DURING STAGED GROUTING
It is absolutely necessary to keep stray rocks out of the
pump. Always use a screen on the pump hopper to sift out
any larger aggregate that could inadvertently be mixed in
the grout. The transport truck that delivers grout was likely
carrying normal concrete as its prior load. A couple of 1-½”
stones can clog a 2” grout line resulting in signicant back
pressure which can result in a sudden ‘blow out’ of the reline
structure (see gure 4).
A reasonable yet conservative approach is to make a vertical
projection from the new structure at the lowest point where
a particular depth of uid grout touches the structure to
the top of the uid lift, or to the springline for any lift that
tops the springline. The spring line is the elevation at which
maximum span occurs. For round pipe, it is at ½ way up the
pipe. On a structural plate pipe arch or underpass the spring
line can be approximated as the ‘B dimension’ from the
NCSPA handbook. This volume of ‘displaced’ uid (the area
resulting from the projection described herein) times the uid
unit weight of grout is the resulting upward buoyant force
that must be resisted. To analyze each lift, consider the prior
lift to have solidied. The shop drawings by Contech normally
show this information. On a single radius arch less than 180°,
there are no buoyant forces. However, lateral uid pressures
must be considered with arches.
Figure 2
Figure 3
To determine grout quantities, geometric properties of the
existing structure need to be known or estimated in addition
to consideration given to the slope of the new and old
structures, and the use of intermittent bulkheads that are
occasionally used between the inlet and outlet bulkheads.

Figure 4
Page 9
Placement
MAXIMUM PRESSURE
There are many acceptable grouting methods, and they
usually fall under two general categories: monolithic grouting
and stage grouting.
Diameters less than 48 inches
Monolithic grouting (in one step) involves lling the entire
annular space with one lift. Grout is injected, under low
pressure, from the upstream end of the pipe run from
manhole to manhole, or from an insertion pit to manhole.
The grout moves down the annulus in a wave-like fashion
pushing any ground water ahead of the grout (see gure 2).
Diameters equal to or greater than 48 inches
Staged grouting involves placement of the grout in lifts and
when done properly can eliminate liner otation. The liner
pipe is grouted into a cradle in the rst stage. After the rst
lift of grout has cured, the remaining lift(s) of grout is placed.
Since the liner pipe is in a cradle after the rst lift, and further
deformation is limited, it may be possible to increase grout
injection pressures, if needed, to ensure complete grouting of
the annular space. Factory installed grout ports are optional
and can simplify the grouting process (see gure 3).
Other grout placement methods include grouting from the
surface through drilled holes and slick-line grouting from
a tube, within the annulus, that is retracted while grout is
pumped through it.
For all placement methods, the annular space should be
uniformly and completely lled on both sides of the liner
simultaneously. Unbalanced or uneven grouting can affect
liner shape, line and grade (see gure 5).
ANNULAR SPACE GROUTING
Most sliplining installations require the annular space
between the existing (host) pipe and the liner pipe to be
grouted. Grouting of the annular space xes the position
of the new liner pipe, provides uniform support, increases
allowable external hydrostatic pressure on the liner pipe
and inhibits further failure of the host pipe. Introducing the
grout into the annulus is accomplished by gravity ow or by
pumping. Properly controlled grouting is essential to prevent
liner pipe otation, deformation or even collapse.
Host pipe

CMP liner pipe
The recommended maximum grouting pressure for ULTRA FLO
and CMP is 5 psi. However, site conditions and pipe stiffness
may allow slightly higher pressure. Appropriate gages should
be used to monitor external pressures on the liner pipe. See

Bulkhead designs should provide adequate venting and
draining tubes. Hydrostatic head pressure resulting from the
slope and/or diameter of the pipe, elevation change between
the gage and the pipe, elevation difference between grout
pump and the nozzle, etc. should be considered in addition
to the grouting pressure on the gage. The hydrostatic head
pressure combined with the pressure on the gage should not
exceed the recommended maximum pressure. Contact your
local Contech Sales Engineer for more information.

INSTALLATION TIPS
1. For curved sewers or severely misaligned sewers, using
short ULTRA FLO or CMP liner pipe sections may reduce
pushing or pulling forces and prevent hang ups. For large
diameter sewers or tunnels, individual pipe lengths can
be pulled through the line and joined within the line
when necessary. When pulling individual pipe lengths,
care should be taken to prevent damage to the re-rolled
ends or alignment tabs.
2. When the annular space between the liner pipe and the
exiting pipe is to be lled with grout, estimating the
required grout volume before grout placement begins
may be helpful. The estimate may include grout volume
requirements for lling voids or sink holes outside the
existing (host) pipe. Slope of the new structure must be
taken into account when estimating volumes, buoyancy
forces and bulkhead location.
REPAIRS
1. Should damage to the pipe occur at any point
during installation, the Engineer should be contacted
immediately.
2. For smaller abrasions or exposed steel after eld cutting
apply zinc-rich paint or cold galvanizing compound.
3. Contact your local Contech Sales Engineer if you have
any questions or concerns and for recommendations.
