This project is to conduct a hydraulic analysis for the proposed 600 mm diameter Zone 4 watermain on Heritage Road from Meadowvale Pumping Station (PS) to south of Steeles Avenue West. The proposed 600 mm diameter and 1300 mm long watermain will serve as a sub-transmission main and will be constructed of concrete pressure pipe (CPP). The proposed watermain will connect to the existing 750 mm diameter CPP watermain coming out of Meadowvale PS, existing 300 mm diameter polyvinyl chloride (PVC) watermain on Edgeware Road, and existing 400 mm diameter CPP watermain on Heritage Road south of Steeles Avenue West. The proposed watermain will serve to twin a section of the existing 400 mm diameter watermain on Heritage Road. The primary objective of the hydraulic analysis is to confirm and verify the proposed diameter for the 600 mm watermain, the location and size of all interconnections and connections, flow rates, operating pressures, and available fire flows. The hydraulic modelling is c...

This project is to assist with the detailed design of the watermain replacement/relocation on Hurontario Street, located in the City of Mississauga, Region of Peel (Region). The water utility relocation component of the overall LRT project comprises the design and replacement of approximately 5.8 km of watermain spanning three pressure zones from north of Lakeshore Road to just north of Elm Drive. The overall location of the proposed watermain replacement is presented via a hydraulic model layout in Figure 1, as well as a street map in Figure 2. The proposed watermains will include connections to the existing distribution system. The 600 mm diameter watermain sections will be constructed using concrete pressure pipe (CPP) whereas the 300 mm diameter watermain sections will be constructed using polyvinyl chloride (PVC) pipe. The purpose of the analysis is to: 1.   Evaluate the hydraulic transient-based risks for the watermains; 2.  Provide the maximum, minimum, and recommende...
