3、astics pressure piping materials behave as ductile materials under load, meaningthat they can undergo considerable deformation without damage. Piping made from such materials hasthe ability to bend under a load without breaking and to deform in other ways, while offering continuedresistance. This fl

(1372-mm) nominal size and smaller. Itis beyond the scope of this practice to describe these proce-dures

7、 in detail since it is recognized that significant differencesexist in their implementation depending on kind and type ofpipe material, pipe size and wall thickness, soil conditions, andthe specific end use.1.1.1 This practice assumes that over the range of antici-pated operating conditions, includi

8、ng maximum external load-ing and minimum internal pressure, the soil/pipe system willoffer sufficient structural stability to resist possible excessivediametrical deformation, or even collapse. In cases, particu-larly with large diameter thinner-walled pipe, for which thevalidity of this assumption

9、may be in question, the selection ofpipe and recommended installation conditions shall be deter-mined by a qualified engineer.1.1.2 Specific pipe characteristics and end-use requirementsshall dictate addition to, or modification of the proceduresstated or referenced herein.1.2 The values stated in i

10、nch-pound units are to be regardedas standard. The values given in parentheses are mathematicalconversions to SI units that are provided for information onlyand are not considered standard.1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is

18、s. For example, protective sleeves are installed atconnections between plastic or non-plastic mains and plasticlateral branch or service lines (such as service or branchconnections to tapping tees or saddles), where plastic pipeenters or exits a casing, or where plastic pipe penetrates abuilding or

19、vault wall.4. Significance and Use4.1 This practice may not apply to products which shall besubject to failure at relatively low strains. For low ductilitymaterials, the installed pipe/soil system shall be sufficientlyrigid to prevent pipe deformations which could strain thepiping material beyond it

20、s safe strain limit.5. Joining5.1 Plastic pipe shall be joined together or to other pipes ofdissimilar material using a number of different techniques.Commonly used procedures, joining materials, and fittings aredefined by various standards. (See Appendix X1.) The tech-nique used shall be suitable f

21、or the particular pipes beingjoined to one another. Manufacturers shall be consulted forspecific instructions not covered by existing specifications.When requesting information, the intended service applicationshall be made known.5.2 Skill and knowledge on the part of the installer arerequired using

22、 recommended techniques to obtain qualityjoints. Training of new installers shall be made under theguidance of skilled individuals. Detailed written proceduresand visual aids used to train personnel are available frompiping and joining equipment manufacturers.5.3 The use of fittings and joining proc

23、edures which are notcovered by a recognized standard is subject to the judgmentand discretion of the purchaser. Each fitting and joiningprocedure used shall be qualified by investigation, testing, andexperience to establish its suitability and safety for the intendedservice. Fittings and joints shal

24、l have long-term pressurecapabilities equal to or greater than the systems maximumanticipated sustained operating pressure.5.3.1 Thrust transmitting joints such as heat fused or solventcemented, shall be capable of restraining maximum anticipatedpipe pull-out forces generated by any unbalanced force

25、s frominternal pressure or pipe expansion/contraction, or both.5.3.2 Gasketed and other non-thrust transmitting joints shallbe restrained by means of properly engineered external re-straints (thrust blocks) or joint restraint devices (see 7.3).NOTE 1Where there are unbalanced momentum forces and thr

26、ust istransmitted through the joints, consideration shall be given to the designcapacity of each joint in the system to safely resist maximum anticipatedaxial thrust (see 7.3). Where a piping section having thrust transmittingjoints is connected to a piping section having non-thrust transmittingjoin

27、ts, measures shall be taken to anchor or restrain the end of the thrusttransmitting joint section against longitudinal movement so that contrac-tive forces shall not be transmitted and cause disjoining of non-thrusttransmitting joints.6. Trenching-Recommended Installation Procedure6.1 Trench Stabili

28、tyDuring trench excavation, ensure thatthe trench sides shall be stable under all working conditions.The trench walls shall be sloped or appropriate supportsprovided to comply with all applicable local, state, and federalrequirements for safety.6.2 Trench WidthThe width of the trench at any pointbel

29、ow the top of the pipe shall be sufficient to provide adequateroom for each of the following requirements: (1) joining thepipe in the trench if this is required; (2) snaking of small-diameter, heat fused or solvent cemented pipe from side-to-sidealong the bottom of the trench, when the effects of co

30、ntractionare not otherwise accommodated; (3) filling and compactingthe side fills; and (4) checking the elastomeric seal joints.Minimum trench widths shall be permitted to be utilized withmost solvent-cemented and heat-fused pressure pipe materialsby joining the pipe outside the trench and lowering

31、the pipeinto the trench after adequate joint strength has been attained(see 10.5). This practice shall be permitted to be used forgasket joint pipe, with manufacturers approval, providing careis taken to not disassemble the joints during lowering.3Available from American Water Works Association (AWW

QuincyAve., Denver, CO 80235, http:/www.awwa.org.FIG. 1 Installation TerminologyD2774 1226.3 Trench BottomThe trench bottom shall be preparedfor the direct replacement of the pipe and shall be continuous,relatively smooth, free of rocks, and provide uniform support.For bell-ended or coup

33、led pipe, suitable “bell-holes” shall beprovided at each joint to permit the joint to be assembled andthe pipe to be supported properly.6.3.1 Where ledge rock, hardpan, or boulders are encoun-tered, it shall be required to pad the trench bottom with abedding of at least 4-in. (100-mm) thickness of c

34、ompactedClass I or II material (see Table 1). In situations where rapidmovement of water takes place through this bedding, the ClassI or II material used shall have gradation that prevents loss bymigration of any pipe embedment material (see 9.8).6.4 Trench Depth and Pipe CoverExcavation for pipetre

35、nches shall be to the lines, grades, and dimensions shown onthe contract drawings. Sufficient cover shall be maintained toadequately reduce the traffic or other concentrated and impactloads.6.4.1 Reliability and safety of service shall assume majorimportance in determining minimum cover for any inte

36、ndedservice. Local, state, or federal codes shall also govern. Pipeintended for winter water service shall have a minimum coverequal to or greater than the maximum expected frost penetra-tion depth.6.4.2 Aminimum cover of 24 in. (610 mm) for pipe shall berequired when subjected to heavy overhead tra

37、ffic. In areas oflight overhead traffic a minimum cover of 12 to 18 in. (305 to457 mm) is required.6.5 “Trenchless InstallationSome types of thermoplas-tic pressure pipe shall be permitted to be installed usingmethods that do not require excavation.7. Pipe Placement7.1 Pipe Joint AssemblyPipe assemb

38、ly shall be conductedin accordance with the manufacturers published recommen-dations. Above ground joining of pipe joined by solventcementing, heat fusion or some other thrust transmittingconnection shall be permitted. After the joint is appropriately“cured” (see Section 10) the pipe is lowered into

39、 the trench.This practice shall be permitted to be used for gasket joint pipe,with manufacturers approval, providing care is taken to notdisassemble the joints during lowering.7.2 Pipe BendingAssembled thermoplastic pipe may bebent longitudinally if the bending radius is within limitsprescribed by t

40、he manufacturer. There shall be two limits, onefor pipe without joints and the other for pipe sections withjoints.7.3 Thrust RestraintWhen installing piping systems withjoints that cannot transmit the anticipated maximum longitu-dinal thrust, thrust restraint shall be required at changes indirection

41、, or terminal ends, to prevent joint disengagement.7.3.1 Where the piping system employs non-self restrainingjoints (for example, elastomeric seal bell and spigot type joints)at points where line shift or joint separation at system operatingpressure can be anticipated, that is, pump discharge, direc

42、tionalchanges, reducers and dead ends, thrust restraint shall berequired to prevent joint disengagement and ensure the properperformance of the pressure piping system.7.3.2 Where the piping system employs self-restrainingjoints (for example flanges, heat fusion, mechanical jointrestraint or solvent

43、cement joints) at these points in the system,thrust blocking shall not be required for thrust restraint.7.4 Thrust Restraint MethodsThrust restraint shall beachieved by use of mechanical thrust restraint devices or by useof concrete thrust blocking.7.4.1 Mechanical Thrust Restraint Devices:7.4.1.1 D
