Schedule of Rates PREFACE
Due to intense urbanization of our habitation centres, Trenchless techniques play a vital role in the three sections mentioned above. IndSTT, the apex organization to promote the application of Trenchless Technology has been to established to do this & had released the first edition of the Schedule of Rates for Construction Contractors Employing Trenchless Technology in 2002 for six new Installation techniques then. With successive indigenization of techniques and growth of demand, cost optimization has taken place. In addition, as the market has also grown laterally, with substantial demands of more techniques, for different types of such techniques, the necessity to bring out a revised version of the previous Schedule of Rates had developed. IndSTT to meet this requirement had released the second edition of the SoR during the No Dig India Show 2008 with subsequent developments & refinement of activities, the amplification of rates of Second Edition, IndSTT has developed the third edition of Schedule of Rates which is being released in No Dig India Show 2009 at New Delhi. Similar to the previous Schedule of Rates, this enlarged Schedule is expected to be helpful in standardizing the technique applications. I wish all the fellow trenchless technologists a successful business through the use of these Trenchless Techniques. Chander

The Subsurface infrastructure plays a critical role in protecting public health and promoting economic prosperity of nation. Largely out of sight, it remains out of mind and its presence is felt only when failures
occur. Less number of failures means better returns on the investment on such infrastructure & the only
way to insure it is to standardize the construction process, may it be for new installation projects,
rehabilitation projects, or renewal projects concerning such networks.
