It is old for crossing waterways, roadways, shore approaches, stuffed areas, environmentally sensitive areas, and areas where other methods are costlier or not possible. Collectively referred to as Trenchless Technology, this method basically entail the creation of an underground tunnel along a prescribed bore path which is important enough to accommodate whatever pipes, cables or conduits are required, and the latter installation of those services. Such tunnels will be created by various means using an array of specialized equipment (as further detailed below), depending on the diameter of piping to be installed, the lengths of the bore run, ground conditions and surface conditions.Some bores may need to be at a specified gradient, some curved, others winding to avoid existing services. Any of these can be achieved from surface without the need for large excavations before to commencement of works. Speed of installation and project completion. Minimal to zero environmental or visual impact. Can be completed from surface without the need for large excavations. In concise the ADD process can be summed up as below: utilizing a Horizontal Directional Drilling guidance system, a pilot hole is drilled, usually from surface along the predetermined bore path to the depart hole or surface location. Within the drill head which is attached to the drill stem, a sonde’ transmits a signal to the guidance system which is interpreted by the Locator and is then utilized to ensure that the designed bore profile is maintained throughout. In some instances, where the conduit required to be installed has a insignificant diameter, no enlargement or prereaming’ of the pilot hole is needed and the pipe conduit will be installed as soon as the pilot hole has been completed. In most instances however, it will be necessary for the pilot hole to be enlarged until it is suitable for the size of the pipes conduits that needs to be installed. Also called prereaming’, reamers of varying sizes will be attached to the drill stem and pulled pushed through the drill hole to amplify the creative space. As during the pilot stage, a unite of water and drill buds i.e. bentonites and polymers will be utilized during the process to aid in the removal of soil cuttings, to stabilize the bore hole, chilly the drill head, and lubrica
