Materials and Manufacture4.1 All materials shall conform to the following require-ments:4.1.1 Resilient materials for connectors and filler rings shallbe manufactured from natural or synthetic rubber and shallconform to the requirements prescribed in Table
17、 1. If a spliceis used in the manufacture of the seal, its strength shall be suchthat the seal shall withstand a 180 bend with no visibleseparation.4.2 Mechanical DevicesExpansion rings, tension bands,and take-up devices used for mechanically compressing theresilient portion of the connector against
18、 the pipe or manholeshall be made from a material or materials in combination thatwill ensure durability, strength, resistance to corrosion, andhave properties that will ensure continued resistance to leak-age. All metallic mechanical devices and bolt assemblies usedto mechanically deform resilient
19、materials shall be constructedof corrosion resistant materials meeting the physical propertiesand chemical composition requirements of Specifications A493and A666, Type 302 through Type 316.NOTE 3Experience has shown that successful performance of thisproduct depends on the type of bedding and backf
20、ill and the care in thefield installation of the manhole and connecting pipes. The owner iscautioned to require inspection at the construction site.5. Principles of Design5.1 The design of the connector shall be such that positiveseal is accomplished at two locations: (1) between the connec-tor and
21、the wall of the manhole or wastewater structure and (2)between the connector and the pipe. The seal between theconnector and the wall of the manhole or wastewater structureshall be made by either mechanical means, compression of theresilient material between the outside surface of the pipe andthe pi
22、pe opening in the wall of the manhole or wastewaterstructure, or by casting the connector integrally with the wall ofthe manhole or wastewater structure. The seal between theconnector and the pipe shall be made by mechanical means orby compression of the resilient material against the outside ofthe
23、pipe. Resilient filler rings are not prohibited from beingused between the pipe and the connector to provide a seal.Whichever design is used, it shall be capable of maintaining aresilient, hydrostatic seal under the performance conditions inaccordance with Section 7. Devices used to effect mechanica
24、lseals shall conform to the requirements specified in Section 4.5.2 For lateral to pipe connectors, the design of the connec-tor shall be such that a positive seal is accomplished at twolocations: (1) between the connector and the pipe wall and (2)between the connector and the lateral. The seal betw
25、een theconnector and the pipe wall shall be made by either mechanicalmeans, compression, or by casting the connector integrallywith the pipe wall. The seal between the connector and thelateral shall be made by either mechanical means or bycompression of the resilient material against the outside of
26、thepipe. Resilient filler rings are not prohibited from being usedbetween the lateral and the connector to provide a seal.Connector design must not allow either lateral or connector toextend past the cylindrical plane of the pipe inside diameter.The connector shall be capable of maintaining a resili
27、enthydrostatic seal under the performance conditions in accor-dance with Section 7. Devices used to effect mechanical sealsshall conform to the requirements specified in Section 4.5.3 Pipe StubsOwners shall require that all pipe stubsinstalled, to allow for future connections to manhole structures,b

Basis of Acceptance6.1 For diameter 900 mm and smaller, at least one connectorshall be tested for each 150 mm increment in diameter. Fordiameters larger than 900 mm, at least one connector sha
29、ll betested for each 300 mm increment in diameter.6.2 The acceptability of the resilient connector shall bedetermined by the results of the physical tests prescribed in thisspecification, if and where required, and by inspection, todetermine whether the connector conforms to the specificationwith re
30、gards to design and freedom from defects.6.3 When requested, a current certification shall be fur-nished as the basis of acceptance.

Restrain the lateral against axial movement during thetests.7.2 There shall be no leakage under any of the followingconditions:7.2.1 Straight alignment
39、of the pipe/lateral.7.2.2 Axial deflection of the pipe/lateral of at least 7 in anydirection.7.2.3 When the pipe is loaded in shear in accordance withthe requirements shown in Fig. 1.7.2.4 When the lateral is loaded in shear in accordance withthe loading requirements of Fig. 1 and does not exceed 25
40、 mmof axial movement at the connector.7.2.5 Note: Pressure is not prohibited from being relievedwhile deflecting or loading test section.7.3 Leakage shall be construed to mean freely drippingwater emanating at the interface between the connector andeither the manhole base, the pipe, or the lateral;
41、between theconnector and the filler rings; or through the body of theconnector and the filler rings; or through the body of theconnector itself.7.4 Moisture appearing at random locations on the base ofthe outlet in the form of patches or beads adhering to thesurfaces shall not be considered leakage.
