There is a need for models to predict the negative effects of sewer deposits in order to improve design, maintenance and operation of sewerage systems. The lack of success of deterministic sewer sediment models in the past is caused by a lack of basic knowledge, which causes unknown uncertainties in the model's results. The basic knowledge about non-cohesive sediment transport has been studied with laboratory experiments. This has resulted in an understanding of the non-cohesive sewer sediment transport and the related subjects of bed shear stress, incipient motion, bed forms and flow resistance. This understanding can be used in the development of deterministic models for sewer systems. However, the next objective will be to develop probabilistic models.
