Definition: The Pipe Bursting/Crushing system is defined as the reconstruction of
gravity sewer pipe by installing an approved pipe material, by means of one of the
pre-approved methods set forth in Section A.2 of this specification. The process
involves the use of a static, . hydraulic or pneumatic hammer "moling" device,
suitably sized �to break out the otd pipe or using - modified boring "knife" with a
flared plug that implodes.and crushes the existing sewer pipe. Forward progress
of the "mole" �or the "knife':. may be aided by the use of. hydraulic equipment or
other apparatus, as specified in the approved methods. The replacement pipe is
either pulled or pushed into the bore. The method allows for replacement of pipe
sizes from 8" through 21" and/or upsizing in varying increments up to 21'". This
specification is based on the precedent that the Pipe Bursting/Crushing system
used has been pre-approved by the City of Fort Worth Department of Engineering,
