A pivotal project commenced in Rankin Inlet, an isolated Nunavut community, located on the west coast of Hudson Bay, aimed at upgrading the community’s aging water and sewer infrastructure. The focus of this initiative was the seamless connection of new HDPE outlet connections from the water and sewer chambers to HDPE pipelines. Central to this project was the MULTI/JOINT® 3000 Plus which meets the unique challenges of the region.
MULTI/JOINT® 3000 Plus: Proven solutions for extreme environments
Project background
Rankin Inlet’s existing system faced significant capacity limitations, causing operational delays and hindering community development. The local government required a robust, leak-free, and maintenancefree solution that could withstand ground settlement ― a common concern in the extreme Canadian climate.
Selected technical solution
To address these challenges, MULTI/JOINT® 3000 Plus was chosen for its performance and adaptability. The installation was executed by the engineering teams from Dillon Consulting and KGS Group, who praised the ease of use and efficiency of the MULTI/JOINT® 3000 Plus. With over 30 years of reliable performance in various applications, the MULTI/JOINT® 3000 Plus has a proven track record. Its durable, corrosion-resistant materials are specifically engineered for both underground and above-ground use, providing maintenance-free connections that stand the test of time.
No new developments could take place in the community until their 40-year-old water and sewer system was replaced.
MULTI/JOINT® 3000 Plus provided the connection the local government was seeking for their new HDPE outlet connections from the water and sewer chambers to HDPE pipelines.
Achieved improvement
Feedback from the project stakeholders: “Thanks to its one-piece, stab-fit design, the installation was not only quick but also minimized potential leaks, ensuring a longlasting solution”. The flexible restraint system exceeded expectations and delivered an effective solution. The successful connection of water and sewer chambers in Rankin Inlet showcases the impact of our fittings.
