3、 Defense.1NOTEX2.4 was editorially corrected in September 2014.1. Scope*1.1 This practice provides recommendations for the instal-lation of buried thermoplastic pipe used in sewers and othergravity-flow applications. These recommendations are in-tended to ensure a stable underground environment for
4、ther-moplastic pipe under a wide range of service conditions.However, because of the numerous flexible plastic pipe prod-ucts available and the inherent variability of natural groundconditions, achieving satisfactory performance of any oneproduct may require modification to provisions containedherei
5、n to meet specific project requirements.1.2 The scope of this practice necessarily excludes productperformance criteria such as minimum pipe stiffness, maxi-mum service deflection, or long term strength. Thus, it isincumbent upon the product manufacturer, specifier, or projectengineer to verify and
6、assure that the pipe specified for anintended application, when installed according to proceduresoutlined in this practice, will provide a long term, satisfactoryperformance according to criteria established for that applica-tion. A commentary on factors important in achieving asatisfactory installa

32、. Recommendations for inclusion ofthis practice in contract documents for a specific project aregiven in Appendix X2.5. Materials5.1 ClassificationSoil types used or encountered in bury-ing pipes include those classified in Table 1 and natural,manufactured, and processed aggregates. The soil classif
33、ica-tions are grouped into soil classifications in Table 2 based onthe typical soil stiffness when compacted. Class I indicates asoil that generally provides the highest soil stiffness at anygiven percent compaction, and provides a given soil stiffnesswith the least compactive effort. Each higher-nu
34、mber soil classprovides successively less soil stiffness at a given percentcompaction and requires greater compactive effort to provide agiven level of soil stiffnessNOTE 4See Practices D2487 and D2488 for laboratory and fieldvisual-manual procedures for identification of soils.NOTE 5Processed mater
35、ials produced for highway construction,including coarse aggregate, base, subbase, and surface coarse materials,when used for foundation, embedment, and backfill, should be categorizedin accordance with this section and Table 1 in accordance with particlesize and gradation.5.2 Installation and UseTab
36、le 3 provides recommenda-tions on installation and use based on soil classification andlocation in the trench. Soil Classes I to IV should be used asrecommended in Table 3. Soil Class V, including clays and siltswith liquid limits greater than 50, organic soils, and frozensoils, shall be excluded fr
37、om the pipe-zone embedment.5.2.1 Class IClass I materials provide maximum stabilityand pipe support for a given percent compaction due to the lowcontent of sand and fines. With minimum effort these materialscan be installed at relatively high-soil stiffnesses over a widerange of moisture contents. I
38、n addition, the high permeabilityof Class I materials may aid in the control of water, and thesematerials are often desirable for embedment in rock cuts wherewater is frequently encountered. However, when ground-waterflow is anticipated, consideration should be given to thepotential for migration of
39、 fines from adjacent materials into theopen-graded Class I materials. (See X1.8.)5.2.2 Class IIClass II materials, when compacted, providea relatively high level of pipe support; however, open-gradedgroups may allow migration and the sizes should be checkedfor compatibility with adjacent material. (
40、See X1.8.)5.2.3 Class IIIClass III materials provide less support fora given percent compaction than Class I or Class II materials.Higher levels of compactive effort are required and moisturecontent must be near optimum to minimize compactive effortand achieve the required percent compaction. These
41、materialsprovide reasonable levels of pipe support once proper percentcompaction is achieved.5.2.4 Class IVClass IV materials require a geotechnicalevaluation prior to use. Moisture content must be near opti-mum to minimize compactive effort and achieve the requiredpercent compaction. Properly place
42、d and compacted, Class IVmaterials can provide reasonable levels of pipe support;however, these materials may not be suitable under high fills,surface-applied wheel loads, or under high-energy-level vibra-tory compactors and tampers. Do not use where water condi-tions in the trench may prevent prope
43、r placement and compac-tion.NOTE 6The term “high energy level vibratory compactors andtampers” refers to compaction equipment that might deflect or distort thepipe more than permitted by the specifications or the manufacturer.5.2.5 Class VClass V materials should be excluded frompipe-zone embedment.
44、5.3 Moisture Content of Embedment MaterialsThe mois-ture content of embedment materials must be controlled topermit placement and compaction to required levels. For soilswith low permeability (that is, Class III and Class IV and someborderline Class II soils), moisture content is normally con-trolle
45、d to 6 3 % of optimum (see Test Method D698). Thepracticality of obtaining and maintaining the required limits onmoisture content is an important criterion for selectingmaterials, since failure to achieve required percent compaction,especially in the pipe zone embedment, may result in excessivedefle
46、ction.5.4 Maximum Particle SizeMaximum particle size forembedment is limited to material passing a 112-in. (37.5-mm)sieve (see Table 2). To enhance placement around smalldiameter pipe and to prevent damage to the pipe wall, a smallermaximum size may be required (see X1.9). When final backfillcontain
47、s rocks, cobbles, etc., the engineer may require greaterinitial backfill cover levels (see Fig. 1).6. Trench Excavation6.1 GeneralProcedures for trench excavation that areespecially important in flexible thermoplastic pipe installationsare given herein.6.1.1 ExcavationExcavate trenches to ensure tha
48、t sideswill be stable under all working conditions. Slope trench wallsor provide supports in conformance with all local and nationalstandards for safety. Open only as much trench as can be safelymaintained by available equipment. Backfill all trenches assoon as practicable, but not later than the en
49、d of each workingday.6.2 Water ControlDo not lay or embed pipe in standing orrunning water. At all times prevent runoff and surface waterfrom entering the trench.6.2.1 Ground WaterWhen groundwater is present in thework area, dewater to maintain stability of in-situ and importedmaterials. Maintain water level below pipe bedding and foun-dation to provide a stable trench bottom. Use, as appropriate,sump pumps, well points, deep wells, geofabrics, perforatedunderdrains, or stone blankets of sufficient thickness to removeand control water in t
