The Trenchless Assessment Guide for Rehabilitation, or TAG-R, is a fully automated, web-based decision support tool for the selection of trenchless technology methods based on a project’s unique needs and characteristics.
NASSCO, in partnership with other industry leaders, will soon release the updated TAG-R tool to provide even more comprehensive data designed to help contractors, system owners and engineers identify the best trenchless solutions for specific project criteria. Updates to the TAG-R 3.0 program — expected for full release this fall — will include:
- A new stand-alone application of TAG-R using the Microsoft Access database management system. This format will allow the import of the Pipeline Assessment Certification Program and Lateral Assessment Certification Program exchange databases and utilize the data for identifying appropriate technologies.
- The capability to import multiple line segments from a PACP/LACP database, including the PACP condition grading system, in a quick, seamless manner.
- The ability for external information not readily available from PACP data (but required to match up rehabilitation solutions with a particular pipe) to be manually entered or populated electronically.
- A comprehensive database for rehabilitation technologies, including reports explaining each technology, application, and other relevant information.
- Updated existing product/process databases, as well as new products and processes for the following classifications: gravity sewers, storm sewers, drainlines and culverts, and building service laterals.
- A printable report output, and a data export feature.
Future releases will include Manhole Assessment Certification Program data, as well as a risk analysis or social cost calculator. The new-generation TAG-R 3.0 tool, available in the coming months, will be available at www.nassco.org.
