28、00 v Foreword This British Standard Code of practice has been prepared under the direction of the Plastics Standards Policy Committee. It provides guidance for the design and construction of glass reinforced plastics (GRP) piping systems, within the boundaries of an individual site or adjacent sites
29、. It thus complements codes and specifications concerned with the design and construction of a) vessels and tanks in reinforced plastics in accordance with BS4994 and b) with the design and performance of individual pipes or fittings in accordance with BS6464, for use as components of process plants
30、. For the construction of GRP pipes and fittings for water supply or sewerage, attention is drawn to BS5480 and BS8005. For drainage, attention is drawn to BS8301, and for pipelines of GRP, BS8010-2.5 should be consulted. This first edition of this British Standard has been written as a code of prac
31、tice and its provisions are expressed throughout as recommendations. However, it is intended that upon review, after a period of use, a subsequent edition will emulate BS806 and BS4994 and take the form of a specification in which the majority of the provisions will be expressed as requirements. The
32、 objective of this code is to ensure that the design of GRP piping systems within its scope should provide for the most severe coincident conditions of temperature, pressure and loading. It is applicable to system components of polyester, epoxy or furane resin reinforced with drawn glass in the form
33、 of chopped strand mat and/or woven roving and/or wound filaments and with or without thermoplastic liners, in nominal sizes from25to1000in the metric series (see BS6464). However, at this time, the detailed contents reflect the greater body of experience with inch series components in nominal sizes
34、 up to48(1200) to which it is therefore also applicable. The code provides for design values for design strain to be determined in two ways: either according to the design temperature and the severity of the service environment in relation to the choice of resin, or as derived from experimental test
35、 data where the appropriate stress/environment/temperature combination can be simulated. The possible influences of corrosion and fatigue are considered and particular attention is paid to flexibility analysis. The code includes sections on general layout, supports and anchorages and joints and conc
36、ludes with guidance on quality assurance. Additional information provided in appendices includes the following. a) Reference to requirements applicable to plastics pipework components likely to come into contact with potable water. b) Methods of test for determination of the effects of relevant liqu
37、id environments, on resistance to long term hydrostatic pressure or to fatigue, which provide factors to be taken into account for purposes of stress analysis. c) Guidance on accommodation of pipework expansion and contraction. d) Nominal dimensions of lengths and radii to be assumed or specified fo
38、r fittings to enable the initial planning of pipework layouts. e) General guidance on non-destructive testing. f) Recommendations for procedure approval testing. g) Descriptions of various irregularities in pipe or fitting construction together with a classification of their respective significance
39、and recommended remedial procedure. h) Recommended stages of inspection for quality assurance purposes. j) A bibliography of related publications.BS7159:1989 vi BSI 02-2000 In selecting the symbols and units adopted for this standard, particular account has been taken of those established for use in
40、 respect of the specification and design of GRP pipes, fittings and vessels, primarily inBS6464 and BS4994 and, for similar design purposes, for ferrous piping installations in BS806. For some purposes, these complementary standards have selected differing conventions or options from one another. He
41、nce, to avoid assigning a multiplicity of meanings to the use of any individual symbols within this standard, it has been necessary to use for some parameters an alternative symbol or unit to that which may be found in a complementary or analogous standard. It has been assumed in the drafting of thi
42、s standard that the design of GRP piping systems is entrusted to qualified engineers and that the execution of their construction is carried out under the direction of appropriately qualified supervisors. WARNING NOTE. This code does not necessarily detail all precautions necessary to meet the requi
43、rements of the Health and Safety at Work etc. Act 1974. Attention should be paid to any appropriate regulations and safety precautions, for example concerning the execution of installations on site, and the procedures and test methods described should be operated only by trained personnel. A British
44、 Standard does not purport to include all the necessary provisions of a contract. Users of British Standards are responsible for their correct application. Compliance with a British Standard does not of itself confer immunity from legal obligations. Summary of pages This document comprises a front c
45、over, an inside front cover, pages i to vi, pages1to 80, an inside back cover and a back cover. This standard has been updated (see copyright date) and may have had amendments incorporated. This will be indicated in the amendment table on the inside front cover.BS7159:1989 BSI 02-2000 1 Section 1. G
46、eneral 1.1 Scope This code of practice gives recommendations for the design, fabrication, installation, testing and inspection of glass reinforced plastics (GRP) piping systems, with or without thermoplastics linings, within the boundaries of individual or associated sites for general chemical engin
47、eering purposes such as chemical plants, process plants, refineries, steam-raising units, storage and distribution depots and tank farms. It is particularly applicable to systems based on use of pipes having an internal diameter of25mm to1200mm or equivalent (nominal sizes25to1200) and intended for
48、use in the temperature range of 30Cto+110C and/or internal pressures of up to10bar in the case of pipes up to600mm internal diameter or up to6bar in the case of pipes having internal diameters greater than600mm. This code does not include recommendations specific to the particular needs of cross-cou
49、ntry pipelines outside the boundaries already described or of underground or under-water effluent or drainage systems, although general aspects of its guidance may be helpful where not in conflict with other codes of practice for such purposes. Additional information or guidance is provided in appendices concerning requirements for non-metallic materials for use in contact with potable water, determination of design strain, flexibility and stress analyses, design details
