(25mm) per lineal f

34、oot of pipe. Maintain the pressure for 15 min. Any leakage shall mean failure.7.1.2 Shear Test:7.1.2.1 Support two joined lengths of randomly selected hubless cast iron soil pipe on blocks, a minimum of 112 in. (38.1 mm)high, at three locations. One length shall be a minimum of 24 in. (609.6 mm) in

35、length, supported on blocks, one near theuncoupled end, and the other immediately adjacent to the couplings. Firmly restrain this length in position as shown in Fig. 35.The other coupled length shall be a minimum of 5 ft (1.52 m) in length and supported by a single block 6 in. (152.4 mm) fromthe end

36、 of the pipe.7.1.2.2 Fill the assembly with water and expel all air. Apply a load of 50 lb per in. (22.7 kg) of nominal diameter at a point 6in. (152.4 mm) from the edge of the coupling upon a 12 in. (304.8 mm) length of 3 by 3 in. (76.2 by 76.2 mm) angle iron or loaddistribution pad located on the

37、top of the pipe immediately adjacent to the coupling of the pipe having one support only. Underthis loading there shall be no visible leakage or displacement of more than 38 in. (9.53 mm) from true alignment adjacent to thecoupling, when an internal pressure equivalent to a 20 ft (6.10 m) head of wa
