16、A Summary of Changes section appears at the end of this standardCopyright ASTM International, 100 Barr Harbor Drive, PO Box C700, West Conshohocken, PA 19428-2959. United States1with the specifications for each project, is the most reliablebasis for installation of an acceptable structure. The requi

17、reddensity and method of measurement are not specified by thispractice, but they must be established in the specifications foreach project.5. Trench Excavation5.1 To obtain anticipated structural performance of corru-gated aluminum pipe it is not necessary to control trench widthbeyond the minimum r

18、equired for proper installation of pipeand backfill. However, the soil on each side beyond theexcavated trench must be able to support anticipated loads.When a construction situation calls for a relatively wide trench,it shall be made as wide as required, for its full depth if sodesired. However, tr

19、ench excavation must be in compliancewith any local, state, and federal codes and safety regulations.6. Foundation6.1 The supporting soil beneath the pipe must provide areasonably uniform resistance to the imposed load, bothlongitudinally and laterally. Sharp variations in the foundationmust be avoi

20、ded. When rock is encountered, it must beexcavated and replaced with soil. If the pipe runs along acontinuous rock foundation, it is necessary to provide asuitable soil bedding under the pipe. See Fig. 3.6.2 Lateral changes in foundation should never be such thatthe pipe is firmly supported while th

21、e backfill alongside is not.When soft material is encountered during construction andmust be removed in order to provide an adequate foundation,remove the soft material for a distance of three pipe widths,unless the engineer has set another limit. See Fig. 4.6.3 Performance of buried pipe is enhance

22、d by allowing thepipe to settle slightly under load compared to the columns ofsoil alongside. Thus, for larger pipes it can be beneficial topurposely create a foundation under the pipe itself which willyield under load more than will the foundation under thecolumns of soil to each side. It can usual

23、ly be obtained byplacing a layer of compressible soil of a suitable thickness, lessdensely compacted than the soil alongside, beneath the struc-ture. This creates favorable relative movement between pipeand the soil on each side. It is of particular importance onpipe-arches.FIG. 1 Typical Trench Ins

25、14)26.4 Pipe-ArchesAll pipe-arch structures must have excel-lent soil support at their corners by both the in-situ foundationand the structural backfill. See Fig. 4 and Fig. 5. They do notrequire the same degree of support under their large-radiusinverts.6.5 The engineer is encouraged to develop det

26、ails specific tothe site based on the general principles for foundation condi-tions given in 6.1 through 6.4.7. Bedding7.1 Material used for bedding beneath the pipe shall meetthe requirements of this section. Material in contact with thepipe shall not contain rock retained on a 3-in. 75-mm ring,fro

27、zen lumps, chunks of highly plastic clay, organic matter,corrosive material, or other deleterious material. It is notrequired to shape the bedding to the pipe geometry. However,for pipe-arches, it is recommended to either shape the beddingto the relatively flat bottom arc or fine-grade the foundatio

28、n toa slight v-shape. This avoids the problem of trying to backfillthe difficult area beneath the invert of pipe-arches. See Fig. 5.8. Pipe Installation8.1 All pipe shall be unloaded and handled with reasonablecare. Pipe shall not be rolled or dragged over gravel or rock andshall be prevented from s

29、triking rock or other hard objectsduring placement on bedding. Pipe with protective coatingsshall be handled with special care to avoid damage. Pavedinverts shall be placed and centered in the invert.8.2 Joining Systems:8.2.1 Purpose of Joining systemsJoining systems for cor-rugated aluminum pipe se

30、rve several purposes: (1) to maintainpipe alignment during installation; (2) to join the ends of pipesections that will subsequently be buried; (3) to create acontinuous flow line; and (4) to limit the amount of infiltrationof backfill material into the pipe and to limit exfiltration of theflow thro

31、ugh the pipe.8.2.2 Joint System ComponentsThe joining system shallbe specified by the project engineer. The components shallconform to the requirements of Specification B745/B745M.The pipe fabricator shall provide the components specified forthe project or as designated by the fabricator in accordan

32、cewith Specification B745/B745M, Ordering Information. Con-formance of the joining system components with the projectrequirements shall be verified upon delivery to the project site.8.2.3 Joining System InstallationThe performance of thepipe line and the joining system will be achieved only when all

33、components of the pipe system are properly installed. As anintegral portion of the pipe system, the joining system must beassembled in accordance with the details in the project draw-ings or the recommendations provided by the pipe fabricator.8.2.3.1 GasketsIf gaskets are a required component of the

34、joining system, they shall be placed on the pipe ends, at therequired location on the pipe, prior to installation of the coupleror bands, or prior to stabbing a bell and spigot joint. For joiningsystems incorporating o-rings(s), the o-ring shall be placed onthe spigot end of the pipe when the joint

35、is a stab-type joiningsystem, or one shall be placed on each end of the pipes thatform a joining system that incorporates a coupling band. If thejoining system includes a flat gasket, the gasket shall be placedover the end of the pipe previously placed and extended overthe end of the adjacent pipe a

36、fter it is positioned. In lieu of asingle flat gasket, two smaller flat gaskets may be used withone gasket on the end of the pipe forming the joint. For pipesupplied with a factory installed band or coupler, no fieldinstalled gasket will be required on the pipe end with thefactory installed device.

37、When recommended by themanufacturer, lubricant shall be applied to the designatedsurfaces. Once installed, the gasket shall be protected againstdamage until the joint is completely installed.8.2.3.2 Coupling BandsCoupling bands shall be placed onthe end of the last pipe installed. When installing tw

38、o-partbands, the first portion of the band shall be placed to cover thebottom portion of the pipe. When the subsequent pipe isplaced, the installation of the joining system is completed toensure proper alignment of the pipeline. The width of theopening between pipe ends shall be as recommended by th

39、epipe fabricator. The band shall be tightened around the pipeends to the extent necessary to achieve proper performance ofthe joining system. The band shall be placed over the pipebeing joined in a manner that matches any corrugations ordimples in the band with the corrugations in the pipe. Followth

40、e pipe fabricators instructions and methods for tighteningthe bands.8.2.3.3 Sleeve Coupler and Bell and Spigot JoiningSystemsWhen a field installed sleeve coupler is utilized, itshall be placed on the end of the pipe previously placed. Witha bell and spigot system, the first pipe is to be oriented s

41、o thebell is open in a direction in which installation will proceed.The subsequent pipe is installed by inserting the spigot, or pipeend without the sleeve coupler, to the maximum depth permit-ted by the joining system. Follow the pipe fabricators instruc-tions for the method of assembly and use of

42、insertion force.8.2.4 Joint BackfillThe joining system was selected basedon the expected site conditions, specifically the type andFIG. 5 Bedding and Corner Zone Treatment for Pipe-Arch Struc-turesB788/B788M 09 (2014)3gradation of backfill material. The structural backfill materialused around the pi

43、pe shall be in accordance with the projectspecifications. Backfill material shall conform to that specifiedin Section 9, and shall be placed in accordance with Section 10.Care shall be exercised during backfill placement not todamage or dislodge the joining system.9. Structural Backfill Material9.1

44、Structural backfill is that material that surrounds thepipe, extending laterally to the walls of the trench, or to the fillmaterial for embankment construction, and extending verti-cally from the invert to an elevation of 1 ft 300 mm or18 thediameter or span, whichever is greater, over the pipe. The

45、necessary width of structural backfill depends on the quality ofthe trench wall or embankment material, the type of materialand compaction equipment used for the structural backfill, andin embankment construction, the type of construction equip-ment used to compact the embankment fill. The width ofs

46、tructural backfill shall meet the requirements given in Table 1.9.2 Structural backfill material shall be readily compactedsoil or granular fill material with no material retained on a 3-in.75-mm ring. Select materials such as bank-run gravels orother processed granular materials with excellent stru

47、cturalcharacteristics are preferred. Desired end results are obtainablewith this type of material with a minimum of compaction effortover a wide range of moisture content, lift depth, and compac-tion equipment characteristics. Excavated native soils used asstructural backfill shall not contain froze

48、n lumps, highly plasticclay, organic material, corrosive material, or other deleteriousforeign materials. Soil classifications are defined in Classifica-tion D2487. Soils meeting the requirements of groups GW, GP,GM, GC, SW, and SP are generally acceptable, when com-pacted to the specified percent o

49、f maximum density as deter-mined by Test Method D698. Test Methods D1556, D2167,D2937, and D6938 shall be used to determine the in-placedensity of the soil. Soil types SM and SC are acceptable, butthey will require closer control to obtain the specified density.Soil Groups ML and CL are not preferred materials, while soilGroups OL, MH, CH, OH, and PT are not acceptable.9.3 Special materials other than soil are acceptable whenused as described in 10.1.10.
