24、d Use4.1 This guide is not intended to supply design informationnor to assume the responsibility of the engineer in establishingprocedures to attain satisfactory performance best suited toindividual job conditions. A review of this guide is recom-mended prior to supplementing it, as appropriate, wit

25、h theconditions and requirements of the owner and engineer.5. Material Selection, Acceptance, Storage and Handling5.1 Acceptance:5.1.1 Rejection of Damaged or Defective PipeAt the timeof delivery, all material shall be examined for defects anddamage. Any material that is defective or damaged shall b

26、erejected and removed from the job site.5.1.2 Replacement of Damaged PipeMaterial that is sup-plied by the purchaser and rejected at the point of deliverybecause of defects or damage shall be replaced by thepurchaser. Material that is supplied by the contractor andrejected at the point of delivery b

27、ecause of defects or damageshall be replaced by the constructor. Material damaged afteracceptance by the constructor shall be replaced by the con-structor.5.2 StorageSafe storage shall be provided for all materialuntil it has been incorporated into the completed project. Theinterior of all pipe, cou

28、plings, rings, fittings, and other acces-sories shall be kept free from dirt and other foreign matter at alltimes. Fittings shall be drained and stored in a manner that willkeep them from damage by freezing.5.3 HandlingAt all times material shall be handled withcare to avoid damage. Whether moved by

29、 hand, skidways, orhoists, material shall not be dropped, bumped, or allowed toimpact on itself.5.4 RehandlingAll materials which are to be supplied bythe purchaser shall be claimed at the locations designated in thepurchasers specifications and hauled to and distributed at thework site by the const

30、ructor.5.5 Unloading at Work SiteWhen distributing the materialat the work site, it shall be unloaded adjacent to or near thelocation where it is to be installed.6. General and Detailed Work to be Performed6.1 Alignment and GradeAll pipe shall be laid to andmaintained at the lines and grades require

31、d by the purchaser.Fittings shall be installed at the required locations with jointscentered and plumb. No deviation shall be made from therequired line or grade without the approval of the purchaser orthe purchasers agent.6.2 Excavation and Preparation of Trench:6.2.1 The trench shall be excavated

32、to the required align-ment and depth shown on the purchasers drawings or assubsequently approved in writing by the purchaser, and only sofar in advance of pipe laying as permitted by the purchasersspecifications.6.2.2 Excavation MethodsWhen necessary to preventcaving, trench excavations shall be she

33、eted and braced orsloped according to applicable laws and ordinances. Whensheeting and bracing are used, the trench width shall not be lessthan that specified in 6.2.3. As backfill is placed and sheetingis withdrawn, it shall be withdrawn vertically in increments ofnot more than 0.3 m (1 ft), and th

34、e void left by the withdrawnsheeting shall be filled and compacted before withdrawing thenext increment. All excavated material shall be piled in amanner that will not endanger the work or obstruct sidewalksand driveways. Gutters shall be kept clear or other provisionsmade for surface drainage.6.2.3

35、 Trench WidthThe trench width shall be ampled topermit the pipe to be laid and jointed properly and the backfillto be placed and compacted as specified by the purchaser.Trenches shall be of such extra width, when required, to permitthe convenient placing of timber supports and sheeting andbracing, a

36、s well as the handling of specials.6.2.4 Trench PreparationThe trench shall be prepared forthe direct placement of the pipe. This preparation includesdigging coupling holes in the trench bottom or bedding, orplacing properly prepared mounds as specified by the pur-chaser. (Illustrations of the vario

37、us bedding conditions areC 966 98 (2003)e12presented in AWWA Standards C 401 and C 403, and also inANSI Standards C 401 and C 403.)6.2.5 Excavation in Poor Soil and Refilling to GradeAnypart of the trench excavated below grade shall be backfilled tograde with thoroughly compacted material approved b

38、y thepurchaser. When an unstable subgrade condition is encoun-tered and, in the opinion of the purchaser, it cannot support thepipe, an additional depth shall be excavated and refilled to pipefoundation grade with crushed stone or other suitable materialas required by the purchaser to achieve a sati

39、sfactory trenchbottom.6.2.6 Pipe laid on trench bottom or bedding. Before the pipeis lowered into the trench, the constructor shall:6.2.6.1 Excavate a coupling hole having sufficient length,width, and depth to permit assembly and provide a minimumclearance of 50 mm (2 in.) below the coupling, and6.2

40、.6.2 Provide the pipe with continuous support betweencoupling holes.NOTE 1Use of granular material for bedding is recommended as apreferred method of preparing the trench bottom for pipe installation.6.2.7 Pipe Laid on Earth MoundsPipe shall be laid onearth mounds of backfill material compacted firm

41、ly in placeand of a size adequate to hold the pipe in alignment and tomaintain a 50 mm (2 in.) minimum clearance from coupling totrench bottom. Each pipe shall be laid on two mounds with thecentre of each mound placed approximately one fifth of thepipe length from each end. The trench shall be excav

42、ated aminimum of 50 mm (2 in.) below the grade of the bottom of theoutside diameter of the coupling, and high spots betweencouplings shall be leveled in order to maintain a minimum of50 mm (2 in.) under the pipe barrel. The clearance between thetrench bottom and the bottom of the coupling and pipe s

43、hall bebackfilled properly, using material approved by the purchaser.The material shall be compacted using appropriate equipmentto provide a firm and uniform bedding along the entire lengthof the pipe.NOTE 2Earth mounds have been used in some areas with success.However, if this method is to be used,

44、 particularly for small pipe sizes,caution should be exercised to ensure that (1) proper clearance ismaintained between the pipe or coupling and the trench bottom, and (2)after pipe placement, the earth beneath the entire length of the pipeincluding the coupling is properly placed beneath the pipe a

45、nd iscompacted to a uniform density specified by the purchaser.7. Laying of Pipe7.1 Lowering of Pipe and Accessories into TrenchPipeshall not be lowered into the trench until the pipe bed has beenbrought to grade. All pipe and accessories shall be inspectedfor defects. Dirt and other foreign matter

46、shall be removedfrom the interior and the machined ends before lowering intothe trench. Pipe and accessories shall be lowered carefully intothe trench by hand or with suitable equipment in a manner thatwill prevent damage to pipe and fittings or injury to theinstallers. The sealing surfaces of all m

47、aterials shall be keptclean during installation.7.2 Pipe JointsThe machined ends of pipe to be jointed,coupling grooves, and rubber rings shall be cleaned immedi-ately before assembly, and assembly shall be made as recom-mended by the manufacturer. Care shall be taken not to reversethe gasket when p

48、lacing it in the coupling. Each pipe joint shallbe sealed with a coupling consisting of an asbestos-cementsleeve and two rubber rings conforming to SpecificationD 1869 or an equivalent coupling or joint of equivalentstrength and performance. The pipe joint shall not be deflectedeither vertically or

49、horizontally beyond the limits recom-mended by the manufacturer.7.3 When pipe-laying is not in progress, the open ends ofinstalled pipe shall be closed to prevent entrance of debris.7.4 Whenever water is in the pipe trench, enough backfillshall be placed on the pipe to prevent it from floating.Any pipethat has floated shall be removed from the trench and thebedding corrected to conform to 6.2.4. No pipe shall be laidwhen the weather is unsuitable for proper installation asdetermined by the purchaser.7.5
