Pipe bursting is the process to save the pipelines from damages such as burning and breaking etc. There are various methods to prevent your pipelines with burst pipe which are used by the professionals and plumbing professionals. The technologies are:
•    Hydraulic pipe bursting
•    Static pipe bursting
•    Pneumatic pipe bursting
•    Lateral pipe bursting
These are the main four methods for pipe bursting. Water lines, sewer lines and gas pipelines are the major part of these methods. Most of damages are occurred in these pipelines and this is very essential to repair of that and make best suitable treatment.
According to North American Society for Trenchless Technology, pipe bursting requires preconstruction planning and design. The International Pipe Bursting Association developed the guideline methods for pipe bursting and classified the methods into three levels.
Hydraulic pipe bursting method: this is used for repairing the pipes and replacing the pipes with the new one of same size and different diameter. Pipes may be made by ductile iron or steel and can be used for a variety of pipe materials. This method is used for bursting head that relies on hydraulic cylinders to expand.
Static pipe bursting method: this is used for horizontal winch that acts as a high-powered hydraulic drum winch which is simple and efficient. Bladed rollers are used for tearing of the host pipe.
