Seismic retrofitting of drainage pipe openings (small to medium diameter) - "Magma Rock Method mini・NGJ"
Non-excavation sewer pipelines (small to medium diameter, φ200 to φ700) seismic resistance technology. Equipped with cylindrical stainless steel and rubber sleeves to withstand Level 2 seismic motion.
This is a non-excavation seismic reinforcement method developed to enhance the seismic resistance of the "pipe connection section where existing pipes and manholes connect," targeting pipe diameters of Ø700 or less. In cases where the connection between the manhole and the pipe does not have a flexible structure, it is known that this connection section, being in a semi-rigid state, tends to concentrate damage such as circumferential cracks or breakage when subjected to significant loads during an earthquake. This method involves pre-cutting grooves (joints) at the connection between the main pipe and the manhole, installing a mini magma, and concentrating seismic stress here to induce cracking at the joint, thereby preventing damage to the connection through its shock absorption effect. The mini magma, which is pre-installed at the locations where cracks occur along the joint, prevents the inflow of groundwater and soil into the pipe. Additionally, this seismic reinforcement method can be reliably installed even when the existing pipe is in a flowing state, as long as the water depth is 25% or less of the nominal diameter, targeting the connection between the manhole and the pipe. [Applications] ● Seismic reinforcement of the connection between manholes and pipes (circular pipes)

basic information
【Features】 ● Improves the seismic structure of the pipe connection where existing pipes with a diameter of Ø700 or less connect to manholes. ● All work, including the installation of guiding joints, can be performed inside the manhole, eliminating the need for work on the ground. ● The guiding joints are cut in a way that leaves part of the pipe's thickness, preventing the intrusion of groundwater or soil during construction. ● Even when the pipe is in a flowing state, reliable construction can be completed in a short time.

Company information
Since its establishment, our company has played a role in national construction, primarily focusing on the "ground improvement field" with our unique grouting method. Subsequently, in response to the changes in social infrastructure development, we have refined our technologies to adapt to the needs of the times and, at times, acquired new ones to expand our business scope. As a result, we have now established three main pillars: "ground improvement business," "slope disaster prevention business," and "pipeline business."
