ASTM F1804-2003 Standard Practice for Determining Allowable Tensile Load for Polyethylene (PE) Gas Pipe During Pull-In Installation《拉入安装过程中聚乙烯气体管允许拉伸负荷测定的标准实施规范》.pdf

1、Designation: F 1804 03An American National StandardStandard Practice forDetermining Allowable Tensile Load for Polyethylene (PE)Gas Pipe During Pull-In Installation1This standard is issued under the fixed designation F 1804; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforigi

2、nal adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon (e) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This practice provides a means to determine an allow-able tensi

3、le load (ATL) value for a polyethylene gas pipe thatis to be installed underground using methods that pull the pipeinto a trench (cut or plowed), bore hole, casing pipe, or the like.The ATL value takes into account pipe size, tensile yeildstrength, pipe temperature, and pulling load duration.1.2 The

4、 ATL is used to set the break-away strength for a“weak-link” device, or as a limit setting for other devices thatcontrol the maximum pulling force exerted by equipment usedto pull polyethylene gas pipe into an underground location, orto determine if pulling equipment can extert pulling forcegreater

5、than the ATL value for the gas pipe being installed. Aweak-link device is installed where the pipe pulling equipmentis connected to the polyethylene gas pipe. If pulling loadexceeds the ATL limit, the device de-couples the pipe from thepulling equipment. Other measures or equipment that limit thepul

6、ling force on the pipe are also used. When the ATL value iscompared to the pulling force developed by the pull-in instal-lation equipment and equipment cannot extert pulling forcegreater than the ATL value, a weak-link or other device forlimiting the pulling force is not necessary.1.3 This practice

7、does not address weak-link device designor requirements, nor does it address the design or requirementsfor other equipment or procedures used to limit the pullingforce applied to polyethylene gas pipe during pull-in installa-tion.1.4 This practice does not address installation methods orprocedures e

It is therespons

11、12.3.2 allowable tensile load (ATL), nThe maximum tensileload applied to a polyethylene gas pipe during pull-in instal-lation that does not result in an unrecoverable tensile elonga-tion of the pipe.NOTE 1Polyethylene gas pipe materials are visco-elastic, that is, theyexhibit properties associated w

12、ith both elastic materials such as rubber,and viscous materials such as wax or clay. When subjected to a tensileload that is significant, but less than the yield strength, polyethylene willelongate or stretch. If the load is then removed, polyethylene will, overtime, recover all or part of the elong

13、ation, depending upon the magnitudeof the load, and the length of time the load was applied. For the purposesof this practice, elongation that is not completely recovered in about 24 hafter the load is released, is considered unrecoverable.4. Significance and Use4.1 The ATL value is used to set the

14、break-away strength ofa weak-link device, or to set other equipment used to limitpulling force during pull-in installation of polyethylene gaspipe, or to determine if pulling equipment can extert pullingforce greater than the ATL value for the polyethylene gas pipebeing installed.4.2 The ATL value i
