Show Complete Document History
The following bibliographic material is provided to assist you with your purchasing decision:
This specification covers requirements relating to asbestos-cement nonpressure sewer pipes, joints, and fittings suitable for use with gravity flow, intended for sewerage and drainage applications from point of use to point of treatment or disposal. It defines certain conditions of manufacture, classification, characteristics, and acceptance tests applicable to these products. Asbestos-cement pipe furnished under this specification shall be designated as Classes 1500, 2400, 3300, 4000, 5000, 6000, and 7000 based on the respective crushing strengths, and shall be furnished in the designated sizes. The pipes shall also be classified in two types (I and II) in accordance with the amount of uncombined calcium hydroxide. Materials shall be sampled, tested, and conform accordingly to the following physical requirements: crushing strength, flexural strength, joint tightness, straight alignment, maximum deflected position, and dimensions.
Scope
1.1 This specification covers requirements relating to asbestos-cement nonpressure sewer pipe, joints, and fittings suitable for use with gravity flow, intended for sewerage and drainage applications from point of use to point of treatment or disposal. It defines certain conditions of manufacture, classification, characteristics, and acceptance tests applicable to these products.
1.2 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as the standard. The values given in parentheses are provided for information only.
Note 1—Rubber rings suitable for use with this pipe are covered in Specification D 1869.
Note 2—As general guidance to achieve safe and clean construction-site conditions when working with asbestos-cement pipe products, the procedures covered in AWWA No. M-16 shall be followed.
Note 3—This specification is issued for product standardization and purchasing purposes only, and does not include requirements for installation or the relationships between operating conditions and the strength characteristics of the various classifications of pipe. The purchaser is cautioned that he must correlate installation and operating conditions with the specified characteristics of the pipe.
