Directional Drilling in Miami Beach, FL

Directional Drilling in Miami Beach: what gets installed
Horizontal directional drilling (HDD): a steered bore between two small pits that puts conduit, pipe and cable under roads, driveways, parking lots and landscaping with no open trench.
Miami Beach is a barrier island with its own water and sewer utility, flood-mitigation work on every street and lots that run to a seawall; bores are short, permitted by the city and planned around the tie-backs.
How a bore in Miami Beach is done
A bore in Miami Beach is planned backward from the product: the bend the pipe can take, the cover the permit requires under the street or the canal bottom, and the rock along the path set the entry angle and the length. Reaming passes open the pilot hole through the limestone; the pipe or conduit is pulled back on the last pass with a swivel.
