16、cimens meet the testrequirements.5.6 Joints complying with this standard are suitable for mostdomestic and commercial applications. However, attention iscalled to the fact that industrial effluents vary in content,concentration, duration of discharge and temperature; andspecific evaluations of joint
17、 performance in such environmentsare necessary. In those instances, consult the manufacturer.6. Joint Specimen Preparation6.1 When required, assembled joints representative of thepipe and joints to be used, shall be selected from the suppliersstock by the purchaser or his representative.6.2 Specimen
18、s selected for the test shall be up to 0.25 % ofthe number of joints to be furnished. No fewer than twoassembled joints shall be tested for each diameter of pipefurnished.6.3 Test specimens shall not be taken from damaged jointsor pipe.7. Test Requirements for Joints7.1 Joints shall meet the require
19、ments of 7.1.1 and 7.1.2 or7.1.1 and 7.1.3, when subjected to an internal 10-ft (3.1-m)head of water pressure (4.3 psi (30 kPa), for a total test periodof 1 h. The recommended temperature of the water, pipe, andatmosphere is 60 to 75F (16 to 24C).7.1.1 Joints shall not leak when tested in the straig
20、htposition and when deflected to amounts shown in Table 4. Theends of the test line shall only be restrained the amount that isnecessary to prevent longitudinal movement. The deflectionshall be determined by measuring the distance the free end ofone pipe moves away from the center line in any direct
21、ionwhile the other pipe remains fixed.7.1.2 Assembled joints shall not leak when subjected toshear. The shear load shall be a force of 150 lbf/in.
