1. Scope
1.1 This specification establishes the criteria for acceptance, prior to installation, of extra strength and standard strength vitrified clay pipe and fittings to be used for the conveyance of sewage, industrial wastes, and storm water; and extra strength perforated and standard strength perforated vitrified clay pipe to be used for underdrainage, filter fields, leaching fields, and similar subdrainage installations. 1.2 The values stated in inch-pound units are to be regarded as standard. The values given in parentheses are mathematical conversions to SI units that are provided for information only and are not considered standard. N OTE 1—Attention is called to Specification C425, Test Method C828, Test Method C1091, Test Methods C301, and Terminology C896. 1.3 The following precautionary caveat pertains only to the Test Method portion, 5.2 – 5.2.3.2 of this standard: This standard does not purport to address all ofthe safety concerns, ifany, associated with its use. It is the responsibility ofthe user of this standard to establish appropriate safety, health, and environmental practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use. 1.4 This international standard was developed in accor- dance with internationally recognized principles on standard- ization established in the Decision on Principles for the Development of International Standards, Guides and Recom- mendations issued by the World Trade Organization Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) Committee.
5. Physical Properties
5.1 Bearing Strength: 5.1.1 Pipe shall meet the bearing strength requirements of Table 1. 5.1.2 The number ofspecimens to be tested shall not exceed 0.5 % of the number of pipe of each size furnished, except that no less than two specimens shall be tested. 5.1.3 If any of the test specimens fail to meet the requirements, the manufacturer will be allowed a retest on two additional specimens for each one that failed. The pipe will be acceptable ifall the retest specimens meet the test requirement. 5.1.4 If, subsequent to an initial pipe strength failure, the accuracy of the testing equipment is questioned, at the request of the manufacturer, the equipment shall be recalibrated and a retest made or a retest made upon equipment of known accuracy. 5.2 Hydrostatic Pressure Test or Absorption Test: 5.2.1 The manufacturer shall at his option, apply either a hydrostatic pressure test or an absorption test to all of the test specimens in each size and run of the pipe. 5.2.2 Hydrostatic Pressure Test: 5.2.2.1 When the pipe is subjected to an internal hydrostatic pressure of10 psi (68.9 KPa) for the elapsed time shown in the following table, there shall be no leaking on the exterior of the pipe. Moisture appearing on the surface of the pipe in the form of beads adhering to the surface shall not be considered leakage. However, moisture which starts to run on the pipe shall be construed as leakage regardless of quantity.5.2.2.2 If any of the test specimens fail to meet the Hydro- static Pressure Test requirements, a retest will be allowed and the pipe accepted as provided in 5.1.3. 5.2.3 Absorption Test: 5.2.3.1 The absorption ofvitrified clay pipe shall not exceed 8%. 5.2.3.2 If any of the test specimens fail to meet the absorp- tion requirements, a retest will be allowed and the pipe accepted as provided in 5.1.3. 5.3 Acid Resistance: 5.3.1 This test is used to determine the resistance of pipe to the action of acids encountered in sanitary sewers. Test results shall be provided when requested. 5.3.2 Test specimens shall be representative of the material of the pipe supplied. 5.3.3 The loss of material from the test specimen shall not exceed 0.25%. 5.3.4 The test shall be in accordance with Test Methods C301. 5.3.5 If any of the test specimens fail to meet the acid resistance requirements, the manufacturer will be allowed to retest two additional specimens. The pipe will be acceptable if all retest specimens meet the test requirements.
