Materials and Manufacture4.1 All materials shall be suitable for use in sanitary sewageapplications.4.1.1 Resilient MaterialsResilient mater
18、ials for connec-tors shall be manufactured from natural or synthetic materialsand shall conform to the requirements prescribed in Table 1and 4.1. If a splice is used in the manufacture of the seal, itsstrength shall be such that the splice can withstand a 180 bendwith no visible separation.4.1.2 Mec
19、hanical DevicesExpansion rings, tension bands,and take-up devices used for mechanically compressing theresilient portion of the connector against the pipe, or tank shallbe made from a material or materials in combination that willensure durability, strength, resistance to corrosion, and haveproperti
20、es that will ensure continued resistance to leakage. Allmetallic mechanical devices, including castings and bolt as-semblies used in or with the connector shall be constructed ofseries 300 stainless steel in accordance with SpecificationA240/A240M.NOTE 2Experience has shown that successful performan
21、ce of thisproduct depends on the type of bedding and backfill and the care in thefield installation of the tank and connecting pipes. The owner is cautionedto require inspection at the construction site.5. Principles of Design5.1 The design of the connector shall be such that positiveseal is accompl
22、ished at two locations: (1) between the connec-tor and the tank and (2) between the connector and the pipe.The seal between the connector and the tank, and between theconnector and the pipe, may be made by any suitable anddurable means, provided that it meets the requirements ofTable 1 and Section 7
23、.5.2 Purchaser shall require that all pipe stubs installed, toallow for future connection to the structure, be mechanicallyrestrained from movement by means of, and in addition to, theresilient connectors.6. Basis of Acceptance6.1 Each connector design shall be tested in accordancewith the requireme
24、nts of Section 7. For connectors into whichmore than one pipe size may be installed, each pipe size shallbe tested independently.6.2 The acceptability of the resilient connector shall bedetermined by the results of the physical tests prescribed in thisspecification, and by inspection, to determine w
25、hether theconnector conforms to the specification with regards to designand freedom from defects.6.3 When requested, a current certification shall be fur-nished as the basis of acceptance. The certification shall consistof the connector manufacturers test report, or statement by themanufacturer, acc
26、ompanied by a copy of the test results, thatthe resilient connector has been tested and inspected inaccordance with the provisions of Table 1 and Section 7.NOTE 3Certification shall be deemed current, if it represents presentdesign, and bears a date that is no more than five years older than thecurr
27、ent date.7. Test Methods and Requirements7.1 The intent of these tests is to demonstrate resistance ofthe tank/connector/pipe interface to hydrostatic infiltration andexfiltration. The test report shall clearly define the specificmethods used in testing so that these may be readily under-stood.7.2 I

Hydrostaticpressure shall be 5 psi at the pipe centerline of the highestconnec
34、tor. Each condition below shall be tested for a period of5 min with infiltration and 5 min with exfiltration test pressure.In simultaneous bi-directional testing, only one 5-min test shallbe required. Gages used for this testing shall be in currentcalibration traceable to NIST and have a maximum lim
35、it of nomore than 15 psi. If a water column is used, it shall measure noless than 11.5 ft in height to the centerline of the highestconnector. If the connector permits more than one pipe size,O.D., or type to be installed, each pipe size, O.D., or type shallbe individually tested and certified to th
36、e requirements ofSection 7.7.3 Required Tests:7.3.1 Straight Alignment of the Pipe(s)With the pipe(s)aligned to the test wall section at 90, the connector(s) shall besubjected to infiltration and exfiltration test pressures for aperiod of 5 min in each condition.7.3.2 Axial Deflection of the Pipe(s)
37、The pipe(s) shall beaxially deflected at least 7 in any direction and the connec-tor(s) shall be subjected to infiltration and exfiltration testpressures for a period of 5 min in each condition.7.3.3 Shear Loading of the Pipe(s)Aconstant vertical loadof 50 lb/in. pipe diameter shall be applied at a
38、point 12-in. fromthe structure wall. The end of the pipe shall be supported at apoint 24-in. from the structure wall. Both the load and thesupport shall utilize a radiused form at least 2-in. wide andclosely fitting the outside diameter of the test pipe section forat least 120 of its circumference t
39、o prevent collapse of the pipesection. After application of the constant load, the connector(s)shall be subjected to infiltration and exfiltration test pressuresfor a period of 5 min in each condition.NOTE 4Fig. 1 shows one method of performing these tests. Anysuitable method may be used, provided t
