3、ense.1. Scope*1.1 This practice provides recommendations for the instal-lation of buried thermoplastic pipe used in sewers and othergravity-flow applications. These recommendations are in-tended to ensure a stable underground environment for ther-moplastic pipe under a wide range of service conditio

4、ns.However, because of the numerous flexible plastic pipe prod-ucts available and the inherent variability of natural groundconditions, achieving satisfactory performance of any oneproduct may require modification to provisions containedherein to meet specific project requirements.1.2 The scope of t

5、his practice necessarily excludes productperformance criteria such as minimum pipe stiffness, maxi-mum service deflection, or long term strength. Thus, it isincumbent upon the product manufacturer, specifier, or projectengineer to verify and assure that the pipe specified for anintended application,

6、 when installed according to proceduresoutlined in this practice, will provide a long term, satisfactoryperformance according to criteria established for that applica-tion. A commentary on factors important in achieving asatisfactory installation is included in Appendix X1.NOTE 1Specific paragraphs

The soil classifica-tions are grouped into soil classifications in Table 2 based onthe typical soil stiffness when compacted. Class I indicates asoil tha

Trench Excavation6.1 GeneralProcedures for trench excavation that areespecially important in flexible thermoplastic pipe ins

42、tallationsare given herein.6.1.1 ExcavationExcavate trenches to ensure that sideswill be stable under all working conditions. Slope trench wallsor provide supports in conformance with all local and nationalstandards for safety. Open only as much trench as can be safelymaintained by available equipme

43、nt. Backfill all trenches assoon as practicable, but not later than the end of each workingday.6.2 Water ControlDo not lay or embed pipe in standing orrunning water. At all times prevent runoff and surface waterfrom entering the trench.6.2.1 Ground WaterWhen groundwater is present in thework area, d

44、ewater to maintain stability of in-situ and importedmaterials. Maintain water level below pipe bedding and foun-dation to provide a stable trench bottom. Use, as appropriate,sump pumps, well points, deep wells, geofabrics, perforatedunderdrains, or stone blankets of sufficient thickness to removeand

45、 control water in the trench. When excavating whiledepressing ground water, ensure the ground water is below thebottom of cut at all times to prevent washout from behindsheeting or sloughing of exposed trench walls. Maintaincontrol of water in the trench before, during, and after pipeinstallation, a

46、nd until embedment is installed and sufficientbackfill has been placed to prevent flotation of the pipe. Topreclude loss of soil support, employ dewatering methods thatminimize removal of fines and the creation of voids in in-situmaterials.6.2.2 Running WaterControl running water emanatingfrom drain

47、age of surface or ground water to preclude under-mining of the trench bottom or walls, the foundation, or otherzones of embedment. Provide dams, cutoffs or other barriersTABLE 3 Recommendations for Installation and Use of Soils and Aggregates for Foundation and Pipe-Zone EmbedmentSoil ClassAClass IB
