A recent HDD project in Texas installed an intersect connection for an HDD project on the surface of the water in Corpus Christi Bay.
This exclusive Underground Construction industry research was conducted during March and April. It surveyed contractors and utilities that actively own and operate HDD units to enable a statistical portrayal of the market.
Much has happened in the subsurface utility engineering (SUE) industry this past decade. There has been a steady and increasing rate of acceptance, practice improvements through research and education, and industry growth.
When Richard Evans, vice president of Built Right Construction LLC, was approached by a customer a few years ago about bidding on a utility installation job, he thought, “Why not? We have skilled operators and laborers working for us who are committed to making sure everything they do is done right – no matter what the project happens to be.”
Schonstedt Instrument Co. has introduced a new underground utility pipe and cable locator designed to “sweep” large areas for the presence of buried assets.

Plastics Pipe Institute
The Plastics Pipe Institute (PPI) published a new guide for the use of chlorinated polyvinyl chloride (CPVC) piping systems in commercial buildings.
Unquestionably, the Covid-19 virus changed our way of life; much of our work practices changed accordingly and dramatically, as well. No doubt, that change applies to various underground infrastructure markets as well.
