Scope, Purpose, and Application

The purpose of this standard is to provide the minimum requirements for material selection, design, installation, and quality control and quality assurance of the CFRP renewal and strengthening of PCCP. The scope of this standard covers all PCCP, including embedded-cylinder pipe (ECP) and lined-cylinder pipe (LCP). The scope of this standard is limited to the wet lay-up application of CFRP; this standard does not apply to pre-cured laminates adhered to the pipe wall, dry layup application, or automated/robotic CFRP installation methods (see Sec. 2.1.1). This standard is not applicable to the design of CFRP liner for severely deformed PCCP as described in Sec. 2.1.2.3.
