Description / Abstract:
These test methods cover testing of concrete pipe, manhole
sections, and tile. The test methods described are used in
production testing and acceptance testing to evaluate the
properties provided for in the specifications.
The test specimens shall not have been exposed to a temperature
below 4°C [40°F] for the 24 h immediately preceding the
test.
If any test specimen fails because of mechanical reasons such as
failure of testing equipment or improper specimen preparation, it
shall be discarded and another specimen taken.
Specimens shall be selected in accordance with the
specifications for the type of pipe or tile being tested.
The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as the
standard.
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.
