37、of plastic (PE, PVC, or PA) followed by Arabicnumerals which describe the short term properties in accor-dance with applicable ASTM standards, the hydrostatic designstress for water at 73.4F (23C) in units of 100 psi with anydecimal figures dropped. Where the hydrostatic design stresscode contains l
38、ess than two figures, a zero is used before thenumber. Thus, a complete material designation code shallconsist of two or three letters and four figures for plastic pipematerials. For example, PE2708 is a grade PE27 polyethylenewith an 800psi design stress for water at 73.4F (23C). Thehydrostatic des

It is calculated by dividing thespecified outside diameter of the pipe, in inches, by theminimum specified wall thickness, in inches. The standarddimens
40、ion ratio (SDR) is a common numbering system whichis derived from the ANSI preferred number series R 10.3.8 toe-ina small reduction of the outside diameter at thecut end of a length of thermoplastic pipe.4.

Elimination of these materials does not affect the pipelines
43、 thatare in service. They can still be used for gas distribution. The main reasonfor removing these materials from this standard is to reflect the currentstate of the art in gas distribution plastic piping.4.3 Documentation A documentation system to allow fortraceability of raw materials including p
