In construction practice, a project NO trench<\/strong> changes significantly depending on the type of service<\/strong> because they change the safety requirements<\/strong>, final examinations<\/strong>, coordination with operators<\/strong> and the commissioning risk<\/strong>. These are the most common differences by type:<\/p>
Drinking water<\/h2>
Priority<\/strong>Hygiene and sanitary protection (avoid contamination).<\/p><\/li>
On site<\/strong>Greater control of cleaning, pipe handling and connections to the existing network; close coordination with the operator for maneuvers and shutdowns.<\/p><\/li>
Closing \/ commissioning<\/strong>usually requires disinfection, rinsing and sampling<\/strong> before going into service (according to the operator's standard). A widely used reference in the industry is the standard AWWA C651<\/strong> on pipeline disinfection. For context of water applications, you can see Urban supply systems<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p><\/li><\/ul>
