Most of us have been trained to lift objects
with the traditional "bend your knees and

powerlift. This technique keeps the back in
a powerful and safe posture while an object
is being lifted. This program explains the
five lifting techniques that have been
derived from the powerlift position so
viewers can move materials safely in
practically every situation. These techniques
are being incorporated in the JPIA's Field

protection, Jeff fell 19 feet to a concrete
floor when the conveyor started
unexpectedly. In this program, Jeff talks
about his poor decisions that day and how

systems have great versatility when
combined with the diversity of fittings,
valves, hydrants, encasements, linings,
gaskets and specials with more than 15,000
variations of fitting patterns currently
available. The DVD illustrates the
characteristics of ductile-iron pipe used in
water supply.
Pipe Profile Series: PE Pipe
AWWA, 18 minutes
330.19.1, Copyright 2008
PE is a thermoplastic polymer that can be
softened and formed into useful shapes by
the application of heat and pressure. The
interest in PE has grown particularly for its
corrosion and leakage resistance, low
installation cost and for rehabilitation and
where open cut installation is prohibitive or
disruptive. PE's flexibility and resilience also
makes it popular for use in earthquake
zones or areas where soils can shift; as it is
installed in continuous thermally-fused
lengths. The DVD illustrates the
characteristics of PE pipe used in water
supply.
Pipe Profile Series: PVC Pipe
AWWA, 22 minutes
330.20.1, Copyright 2008
The primary characteristics that have made
PVC popular in distribution systems are cost
and corrosion resistance. PVC pipe is not
damaged by aggressive waters or corrosive
soils. Consequently, no lining, coating,
Page 66
cathodic protection or plastic encasement is
required on PVC and PVCO pipes. Due to
the absence of corrosion, coupled with a
smooth pipe wall, there is no internal
tuberculation and minimal interior pipe wall
residue in PVC pipe. The DVD illustrates
the characteristics of PVC pipe used in
water supply.
Pipe Profile Series: Steel Pipe
AWWA, 17 minutes
330.21.1, Copyright 2008
Steel has great strength and resists water
hammer and surge. Steel pipe has the
ability to yield or deflect under a load while
resisting it (bend without breaking) making it
suitable for placement under streets and
highways. Steel often performs under
difficult conditions such as stresses that
come from uneven bedding, misalignment
and changes in temperature. The DVD
illustrates the characteristics of steel pipe
used in water supply.

It's estimated that approximately 80 percent

their paper maps to electronic formats so
they can be used by a GIS--a powerful
computer-based information management
system designed to work with data
referenced by geographic coordinates. A
GIS allows utility operators and managers to
determine where their assets are located,
Page 91
for example, the location of valves, water
mains, hydrants, and meters. A GIS also
lets users update, analyze, and display
information about those assets. As a result,
a GIS can reveal important information that
leads to better decision making.
