Significance and Use | ||||
5.1 This is not a routine test. The values recorded are applicable only to the sewer being tested and at the time of testing. |
||||
1. Scope | ||||
1.1 This practice covers procedures for testing the joints of installed precast concrete pipe sewer lines, when using either air or water under low pressure to demonstrate the integrity of the joint and the construction procedures. This practice is used for testing 675-mm and larger diameter precast concrete sewer lines utilizing rubber gasket sealed joints. Note 1: The user of this practice is advised that methods
described herein may also be used as a preliminary test to enable
the manufacturer or installer to demonstrate the condition of sewer
pipe prior to delivery.
1.2 This practice is the SI companion of Practice C1103. Note 2: The owner shall specify the following: who will
conduct, observe, and furnish labor, material, and measuring
devices and pay for the tests; who is responsible for determining
local ground conditions; and whether an air or water test is to be
used.
Note 3: The user of this practice is advised that test
criteria presented in this practice are similar to those in general
use. Pipe shall be accepted by infiltration or exfiltration testing
utilizing Practice C969M.
Note 4: Test times tabulated and the rate of air loss in this
standard are based on successful testing of installed pipelines.
However, since air and water have different physical properties,
retests of some pipelines not meeting field air tests have been
successful when tested with water.
1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use. Specific safety precautions are given in Section 6. |
