2.1SANITARY SEWER PIPING, BURIED BEYOND 5 FEET (1500 mm) OF BUILDING

******************************************

This article contains piping that may be specified in site utility sections. Coordinate with Site utility sections to avoid duplication.

Cast or ductile iron pipe is normally used for durability, longevity, resistance to corrosion, acids, gases, and resistance to induced subsoil loads; is available in 5 and 10 foot (1.5 and 3 m) lengths and diameters ranging from 2 to 15 inches (50 to 375 mm). Pipe ends are usually bell and spigot but can be specified with plain end for mechanical clamp and gasket joint.

******************************************

  1. Cast Iron Soil Pipe: ASTM A74, [extra heavy] [service] weight, [bell and spigot] [plain] ends.
  2. Fittings: Cast iron, ASTM A74.
  3. Joints: ASTM C564, rubber gasket joint devices.

******************************************

Pressure classes define pipe wall thickness depending on pipe size.Available pressure classes include 150, 200, 250, 300, and 350.Insert pressure class required for project conditions.Smaller pipe sizes are not available in lesser pressure classes.

******************************************

  1. Ductile Iron Pipe: AWWA C150 or AWWA C151, [<______> minimum pressure class,] [[50] [52] [54] minimum special class], [bell and spigot] [plain] ends.
  2. Fittings: AWWA C110, [ductile] [gray] iron, standard thickness.
  3. Joints: AWWA C111, rubber gasket joint devices.

******************************************

Concrete pipe, un-reinforced, is normally used in non-pressure applications and where subsoil backfill will not induce loads causing pipe fracture. Sizes range from 4 to 36 inches (100 to 900 mm). Class 1, 2, and 3 designations refer to pipe strength. Absorption of moisture may be a concern in using this pipe material.

******************************************

  1. Concrete Pipe: [ASTM C14 (ASTM C14M)], Class [1] [2] [3]; un-reinforced, [bell and spigot] [plain] ______ ends.
  2. Fittings: Concrete pipe, [ASTM C14 (ASTM C14M)]
  3. Joints: [ASTM C443 (ASTM C443M)], rubber compression gasket.

******************************************

Reinforced concrete pipe is normally used for larger diameter applications, for low pressure applications, or where subsoil pressure requires greater pipe strength than un-reinforced concrete type. Sizes range from 12 to 108 inches (300 to 2700 mm) depending on Class and Wall type. Absorption of moisture may be a concern in using this pipe material.

******************************************

  1. Reinforced Concrete Pipe: [ASTM C76 (ASTM C76M)], Class [I] [II] [III] [IV] [V] with Wall Type [A] [B] [C]; [mesh] [bar] reinforcement, [bell and spigot] ______ ends.
  2. Fittings: Reinforced concrete.
  3. Joints: [ASTM C443 (ASTM C443M)], rubber compression gasket.

******************************************

Plastic pipe is normally used for acidic or corrosive waste sewer systems, ease of jointing, reasonably flexible in moving subsoils, and is relatively impervious to moisture infiltration or exfiltration. ABS pipe is described in ASTM D2751. PVC pipe is covered in ASTM D2729, and ASTM D3034; each offering various qualities and characteristics.

******************************************

  1. ABS Pipe: ASTM D2751, SDR [23.5] [35] [42], Acrylonitrile-Butadiene-Styrene (ABS) material, bell and spigot style solvent sealed ends.
