CEN/TC 165/WG 13 - Renovation and repair of drains and sewers
"Standardisation of techniques for renovation and repair in the field of wastewater engineering. Collaboration will be offered to experts from other TCs involved in renovation and repair. Drafting of standards for products and techniques used for renovation and repair in cases where no specific material related TC or a CEN/TC 165/WG exists. These standards shall include test methods for the "M" stage and the "I" stage, as appropriate (see EN 13380: 2001).

CEN/TC 165/WG 13 is a Working Group within the European Committee for Standardization (CEN). It is named "Renovation and repair of drains and sewers" and is responsible for: "Standardisation of techniques for renovation and repair in the field of wastewater engineering. Collaboration will be offered to experts from other TCs involved in renovation and repair. Drafting of standards for products and techniques used for renovation and repair in cases where no specific material related TC or a CEN/TC 165/WG exists. These standards shall include test methods for the "M" stage and the "I" stage, as appropriate (see EN 13380: 2001). This committee has published 4 standards.
CEN/TC 165/WG 13 develops CEN standards. The scope of work includes: "Standardisation of techniques for renovation and repair in the field of wastewater engineering. Collaboration will be offered to experts from other TCs involved in renovation and repair. Drafting of standards for products and techniques used for renovation and repair in cases where no specific material related TC or a CEN/TC 165/WG exists.

The European Committee for Standardization (CEN) is a public standards organization that brings together the national standardization bodies of 34 European countries. CEN provides a platform for developing European Standards (ENs) and other technical documents in relation to various products, materials, services, and processes, supporting the European Single Market.
A Working Group in CEN is a specialized group responsible for developing standards or technical work within a defined scope. These bodies bring together international experts to create consensus-based standards that support global trade, safety, and interoperability.
This document, in conjunction with ISO 11296‑1, specifies the requirements and test methods for pipes and fittings for the renovation of underground non-pressure drainage and sewerage networks by lining with a single rigid annulus of structural cementitious grout formed behind a plastics inner layer. This plastics layer serves as permanent formwork anchored to the grout.
This document is applicable to plastics inner layers and grout systems with or without steel reinforcement. It does not apply to the structural design of the lining system.
NOTE Systems with multiple annuli are available, but these are controlled by patent rights and not covered by this document.

This European Standard specifies a system for the classification of trenchless techniques for renovation, repair and replacement on the same line of drains and sewers outside buildings, operated under gravity or pressure, including pipes, connections and manholes. It defines and describes families of techniques and their different generic methods and materials used.
This European Standard does not apply for replacement by open trenching according to EN 1610 and trenchless construction and testing of drains and sewers as new construction off-the-line of the existing drain or sewer according to EN 12889.
This European Standard does not apply for the specification of requirements for specific products.
For each technique family it lists relevant existing standards, materials and applications and outlines characteristics including installation aspects, structural and hydraulic capabilities and site impact.
This standard does not apply to any work required on the existing pipe prior to renovation, repair or replacement.
This European Standard provides information needed to determine viable options and for identification of the optimal technique with regard to a given set of renovation, repair or replacement objectives.
NOTE It is the responsibility of the designer to choose and design the renovation, replacement and repair systems.
It does not specify the calculation methods to determine, for each viable technique, the required amount of material needed to secure the desired performance of the pipeline to be rehabilitated.
