2、option or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.This standard has been approved for use by agencies of the Department of Defense.1
3、. Scope*1.1 This practice establishes procedures for the burial ofpressure and nonpressure “fiberglass” (glass-fiber-reinforcedthermosetting-resin) pipe in many typically encountered soilconditions. Included are recommendations for trenching, plac-ing pipe, joining pipe, placing and compacting backf
4、ill, andmonitoring deflection levels. Guidance for installation offiberglass pipe in subaqueous conditions is not included.1.2 Product standards for fiberglass pipe encompass a widerange of product variables. Diameters range from 1 in. to 13 ft(25 mm to 4000 mm) and pipe stiffness range from 9 to ov
5、er72 psi (60 to 500 kPa) with internal pressure ratings up toseveral thousand pound force per square inch. This standarddoes not purport to consider all of the possible combinations ofpipe, soil types, and natural ground conditions that may occur.The recommendations in this practice may need to be m
6、odifiedor expanded to meet the needs of some installation conditions.In particular, fiberglass pipe with diameters of a few inches aregenerally so stiff that they are frequently installed in accor-dance with different guidelines. Consult with the pipe manu-facturer for guidance on which practices ar
7、e applicable to theseparticular pipes.1.3 The scope of this practice excludes product-performance criteria such as a minimum pipe stiffness, maxi-mum service deflection, or long-term strength. Such param-eters may be contained in product standards or designspecifications, or both, for fiberglass pip
8、e. It is incumbent uponthe specified product manufacturer or project engineer to verifyand ensure that the pipe specified for an intended application,when installed in accordance with procedures outlined in thispractice, will provide a long-term, satisfactory performance inaccordance with criteria e
9、stablished for that application.NOTE 1There is no similar or equivalent ISO standard.NOTE 2A discussion of the importance of deflection and a presenta-tion of a simplified method to approximate field deflections are given inAWWA Manual of Practice M45 Fiberglass Pipe Design.1.4 The values stated in
10、inch-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.1.5 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It i
11、s theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.2.

Significance and Use4.1 This practice is for use by designers and specifiers,manufacturers, installation contractors, regulatory
37、 agencies,owners, and inspection organizations involved in the construc-tion of buried fiberglass pipelines. As with any practice,modifications may be required for specific job conditions, orfor special local or regional conditions. Recommendations forinclusion of this practice in contract documents
38、 for a specificproject are given in Appendix X1.5. 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 classifica-tions are grouped into soil-stiffness categories (SC#) in Table 2
39、based on the typical soil stiffness when compacted. CategorySC1 indicates a soil that generally provides the highest soilstiffness at any given percentage of maximum Proctor density,and provides a given soil stiffness with the least compactiveeffort. Each higher-number soil-stiffness category provid
40、essuccessively less soil stiffness at a given percentage of maxi-mum Proctor density and requires greater compactive effort toprovide a given level of soil stiffness.NOTE 3See Practices D 2487 and D 2488 for laboratory and fieldvisual-manual procedures for identification of soils.NOTE 4Processed mat
41、erials produced for highway construction, in-cluding 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.FIG. 1 Trench Cross-Sec
42、tion TerminologyD 3839 0835.2 Installation and UseTable 3 provides recommenda-tions on installation and use based on soil-stiffness categoryand location in the trench. Categories SC1 to SC4 should beused as recommended in Table 3. Soil-stiffness Category 5,including clays and silts with liquid limit
43、s greater than 50,organic soils, and frozen soils, shall be excluded from thepipe-zone embedment.5.2.1 Soil-Stiffness Category 1 (SC1)SC1 materials pro-vide maximum stability and pipe support for a given percentcompaction due to the low content of sand and fines. Withminimum effort these materials c
44、an be installed at relativelyhigh-soil stiffnesses over a wide range of moisture contents. Inaddition, the high permeability of SC1 materials may aid in thecontrol of water, and these materials are often desirable forembedment in rock cuts where water is frequently encountered.However, when ground-w
45、ater flow is anticipated, consider-ation should be given to the potential for migration of finesfrom adjacent materials into the open-graded SC1 materials.(See 5.6.)5.2.2 Soil-Stiffness Category 2 (SC2)SC2 materials, whencompacted, provide a relatively high level of pipe support;however, open-graded
46、 groups may allow migration and thesizes should be checked for compatibility with adjacent mate-rial; see 5.6.5.2.3 Soil-Stiffness Category 3 (SC3)SC3 materials pro-vide less support for a given density than SC1 or SC2materials. Higher levels of compactive effort are required andmoisture content mus
47、t be near optimum to minimize compac-tive effort and achieve the required density. These materialsprovide reasonable levels of pipe support once proper densityis achieved.TABLE 1 Soil Classification Chart (see Classification D 2487)Criteria for Assigning Group Symbols and Group Names Using Laborator
