This standard describes the fabrication and the testing of nominal 1-in. through 156-in. (25-mm through 4,000-mm) fiberglass pipe and joining systems for use in both aboveground and belowground water systems. Service and distribution piping systems and transmission piping systems are...
Preface This manual is the third edition of AWWA Manual M45, Fiberglass Pipe Design. It provides the reader with both technical and general information to aid in the design, specification, procurement, installation, and understanding of fiberglass pipe and fittings. The...
This specification covers the classifications of and basic requirements for thermosetting fiberglass reinforced resin pipe systems with nominal pipe sizes (NPS) 1 through 48 in. (25 through 1200 mm) which are to be used for all fluids approved by the authority having...
Coverage This specification was formulated to provide for the availability of safe, dimensionally, and functionally interchangeable high-pressure fiberglass line pipe with a pressure rating from 500 lbf/in.2 to 5000 lbf/in.2 (3.45 MPa to 34.5 MPa), inclusive, in 250 lbf/in.2 (1.72...
1.1 This test method covers a procedure for determining the long-term ring-bending strain (Sb) of "fiberglass" pipe. Both glass-fiber-reinforc
1.1 This test method covers the procedure for determining the chemical-resistant properties of fiberglass pipe in a deflected condition for diameters 4 in. (102 mm) and larger. Both glass-fiber-reinforc
This specification covers machine-made reinforced thermosetting resin pressure pipe (RTRP) manufactured by the filament winding process. This specification does not include reinforced polymer mortar pipe (RPMP), which is another type of fiberglass pipe. The pipes are...
This specification covers the classifications of and basic requirements for thermosetting fiberglass reinforced resin pipe systems with nominal pipe sizes (NPS) 1 through 48 in. (25 through 1200 mm) which are to be used for all fluids approved by the authority having...
1.1 This practice covers the determination of outside diameter, inside diameter, total wall thickness, reinforced wall thickness, liner thickness (where applicable), and length dimensions of "fiberglass" (glass-fiber-reinfor
Currently the American Petroleum Institute Committee 15 on Plastic Pipe is developing specifications for test methods to assess the cyclic pressure fatigue characteristics of high pressure fiberglass pipe that models the oil-field environment to which it is subjected. The...
This specification covers reinforced plastic pipe and fitting system made from epoxy resin and glass-fiber reinforcement, together with adhesive for joint assembly, intended for services in aviation jet turbine fuel lines installed below ground. The fiberglass pipe shall be...
1.1 This practice establishes two procedures, Procedure A (cyclic) and Procedure B (static), for obtaining a hydrostatic design basis (HDB) or a pressure design basis (PDB) for fiberglass piping products, by evaluating strength-regression data derived from testing pipe or fittings, or...
1.1 This specification covers pipe and fittings fabricated by contact molding, for pressures to 150 psi and made of a commercial-grade polyester resin. Included are requirements for materials, properties, design, construction, dimensions, tolerances, workmanship, and appearance. 1.2 This...
