1、Designation: F1804 08 (Reapproved 2016) An American National StandardStandard Practice forDetermining Allowable Tensile Load for Polyethylene (PE)Gas Pipe During Pull-In Installation1This standard is issued under the fixed designation F1804; the number immediately following the designation indicates
2、 the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This practice provides a means to determine an
3、allow-able tensile load (ATL) value for a polyethylene gas pipe thatis to be installed underground using methods that pull the pipeinto a trench (cut or plowed), bore hole, casing pipe, or the like.The ATL value takes into account pipe size, tensile yeildstrength, pipe temperature, and pulling load
4、duration.1.2 The ATL is used to set the break-away strength for a“weak-link” device, or as a limit setting for other devices thatcontrol the maximum pulling force exerted by equipment usedto pull polyethylene gas pipe into an underground location, orto determine if pulling equipment can extert pulli
5、ng forcegreater than the ATL value for the gas pipe being installed. Aweak-link device is installed where the pipe pulling equipmentis connected to the polyethylene gas pipe. If pulling loadexceeds the ATL limit, the device de-couples the pipe from thepulling equipment. Other measures or equipment t
6、hat limit thepulling force on the pipe are also used. When the ATL value iscompared to the pulling force developed by the pull-in instal-lation equipment and equipment cannot extert pulling forcegreater than the ATL value, a weak-link or other device forlimiting the pulling force is not necessary.1.
7、3 This practice does not address weak-link device designor requirements, nor does it address the design or requirementsfor other equipment or procedures used to limit the pullingforce applied to polyethylene gas pipe during pull-in installa-tion.1.4 This practice does not address installation method
8、s orprocedures employed for pull-in of polyethylene gas pipe.1.5 The values stated in inch-pound units are to be regardedas standard. The values given in parentheses are mathematicalconversions to SI units that are provided for information onlyand are not considered standard.1.6 This standard does n

It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.2.

12、Polyethylene gas pipe materials are visco-elastic, that is, theyexhibit properties associated with both elastic materials such as rubber,and viscous materials such as wax or clay. When subjected to a tensileload that is significant, but less than the yield strength, polyethylene willelongate or stre

For the purposesof this practice, elongation that is not completely recovered in about 24 hafter the load is rel
14、eased, is considered unrecoverable.4.

18、ciples for theDevelopment of International Standards, Guides and Recommendations issued by the World Trade Organization Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) Committee.14.2 The ATL value is determined before gas pipe installa-tion.5. Procedure5.1 The following information about the polyethylene gaspipe
19、is required: size (outside diameter), dimension ratio,material tensile yield strength, the approximate temperature ofthe pipe at the time of installation, and the approximate timeunder tension during installation.5.1.1 Pipe size, dimension ratio, and material shall be inaccordance with Specification
20、 D2513.5.1.2 The pipe material tensile yield strength per TestMethod D638 at 2 in./min (50.8 mm/min) and 73 6 3F (23 61.8C) is obtained from the pipe manufacturer, or is determinedby testing representative samples of the pipe material inaccordance with Test Method D638.5.1.3 The temperature of the p
21、ipe at the time of installationis measured at the time of installation using appropriatetemperature measuring equipment, or is estimated using in-staller experience or information from the pipe manufacturer.5.1.4 The time under tension during installation is estimatedusing factors including the size
22、 and length of pipe beinginstalled, the method of installation, and the nature of theunderground location such as in a casing, or a cut or plowedtrench, or a directionally bored hole.5.2 Calculate the allowable tensile load (ATL) using thefollowing formula:ATL 5 fyftTy D2F1R21R2G(1)where:ATL = allow
