Description / Abstract:
These test methods cover the equipment for, and the techniques
of, testing vitrified clay pipe prior to installation. Tests using
whole pipe determine the resistance to crushing and hydrostatic
forces. Tests using pipe fragments measure the amount of water
absorption of the pipe body and the quantity of acid-soluble
material that may be extracted from it.
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.
Note 1—The following standards also apply to
clay pipe and can be referenced for further information: ASTM C 12,
C 425, C 700, and C 828.
