Standard Practice for Prioritizing Sewer Pipe Cleaning Operations by Using Transmissive Acoustic Inspection

SIGNIFICANCE AND USE
4.1 Significance:  
4.1.1 Collection system maintenance requires allocating cleaning resources to the right place prior to system failure (sanitary sewer overflows, mainline blockages, and building backups). Transmissive acoustic inspection provides a tool to assist in allocating cleaning resources by prioritizing pipe segments based on their blockage assessment and thereby facilitating efficient cleaning resource allocation.  
4.1.2 This standard practice provides minimum requirements and suggested practices regarding the transmissive acoustic inspection of gravity-fed sewer line blockage assessment to meet the needs of maintenance personnel, engineers, contractors, authorities, regulatory agencies, and financing institutions.  
4.2 Limitations and Appropriate Uses:  
4.2.1 The blockage assessment provided by the transmissive acoustic inspection may not resolve the type of blockage(s) within the pipe segment nor resolve the location(s) of the blockage(s) within the pipe segment.  
4.2.2 Due to the physics associated with transmissive acoustic inspection, the blockage assessment may be confounded due to:
(1) Structural designs resulting in poor acoustic coupling,
(2) Pipe segments completely filled with water, for example, full pipe sag or inverted siphon, and
(3) Transient conditions within the pipe, for example, active lateral discharge or temporary flow surcharges.
These issues are addressed as part of the performance criteria specified in X1.5.  
4.2.3 Due to physics associated with acoustics and trade-offs in equipment design for conducting transmissive acoustic inspection, there are limitations based on the following pipe segment attributes:
(1) Pipe diameter,
(2) Pipe segment length,
(3) MH depth, and
(4) Flow levels.
Inspections conducted outside the manufacturer’s recommended ranges for these pipe segment attributes may result in the transmissive acoustic blockage assessment deviating from the performance criteria specified in X1.5...
SCOPE
1.1 This practice covers procedures for assessing the blockage within gravity-fed sewer pipes using transmissive acoustics for the purpose of prioritizing sewer pipe cleaning operations.2 The assessment is based on an acoustic receiver measuring the acoustic plane wave transmitted through the pipe segment under test in order to evaluate the blockage condition of an entire segment and to provide an onsite assessment of the blockage within the pipe segment. (1, 2, 3, 4, 5)3  
1.2 The scope of this practice covers the use of the transmissive acoustic inspection as a screening tool. The blockage assessment provided by the acoustic inspection should be used to identify and prioritize pipe segments requiring further maintenance action such as cleaning or visual inspection, or both. Thereby, also identifying the pipe segments which are sufficiently clean and do not require additional maintenance action.  
1.3 This standard practice does not address structural issues with the pipe wall.  
1.4 The inspection process requires access to the manhole (MH) from ground level. It does not require physical access to the sewer line by either the equipment or the operator.  
1.5 This standard practice applies to all types of pipe material.  
1.6 The inspection process requires access to sewers and operations along roadways or other locations that are safety hazards. This standard does not describe the hazards likely to be encountered or the safety procedures that must be carried out when operating in these hazardous environments.  
1.7 The values stated in inch-pound units are to be regarded as standard. The values given in parentheses are mathematical conversions to SI units that are provided for information only and are not considered standard.  
1.8 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 s...

Standard Practice for Sealing of Sewers Using Chemical Grouting

SIGNIFICANCE AND USE
4.1 The inspection, testing, and repair of sewer pipe joints is a practice that can assist in maintaining and optimizing sewer performance. It is important to identify methods that use the most current compounds and technology to ensure the reduction of infiltration and exfiltration. The method selected should utilize environmentally safe grout and minimize the disruption of traffic.  
4.2 This practice serves as a means to inspect, test, and seal sewer pipe joints, having selected the appropriate chemical grouts, using the packer method. Television inspection and joint testing are used to identify sewer line conditions, defective joints, and document the repairs undertaken. Instruction on joint sealing, if necessary, is then detailed, using pressure injection into the soils encompassing the pipe joint with a chemical grout (chemical sealing material).  
4.3 This practice should not be used for longitudinally cracked pipe, severely corroded pipe, structurally unsound pipe, flattened, or out-of-roundpipe. In areas with high groundwater pressure, greater than 10 psi (68.9 ksi) at the test point, consult equipment manufacturers.
SCOPE
1.1 This practice describes the procedures for testing and sealing individual sewer pipe joints with appropriate chemical grouts using the packer method. Sewer systems shall include sanitary, storm, and combined and their appurtenances. Chemical grouting is a soil sealing process, which seals the voids within the soil surrounding the exterior of the pipe at the point of leakage. Chemical grouting is not considered a structural repair.  
1.2 This practice applies to sewers 6 in. to 42 in. (18 cm to 107 cm) in diameter. Larger diameter pipe may be grouted with specialized packers or man entry methods. Host pipe interior surfaces must be adequate to create an effective seal for the packer elements.  
1.3 The values stated in inch-pound units are to be regarded as standard. The values given in parentheses are mathematical conversions to SI units that are provided for information only and are not considered standard.  
1.4 Worker safety training should include reviewing the hazards associated with hoses, pumps, tanks, couplers, compressors, bottles, motors, and all other related application apparatus. Additional safety considerations including safely handling, mixing, and transporting of chemical grouts should be provided by the chemical grout manufacturer or supplier or both. Their safe operating practices and procedures should describe in detail appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) for the various grouting operations. Operations covered should include the proper storage, transportation, mixing, and disposal of chemical grouts, additives, and their associated containers.  
1.5 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, health, and environmental practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.  
1.6 This international standard was developed in accordance with internationally recognized principles on standardization established in the Decision on Principles for the Development of International Standards, Guides and Recommendations issued by the World Trade Organization Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) Committee.

Standard Practice for Cleaning of Thermoplastic Solid Wall Sanitary Sewer Pipelines

SIGNIFICANCE AND USE
4.1 Hydraulic cleaning methods include equipment that uses water and water velocity to clean the invert and walls of Thermoplastic Sewer Pipe.  
4.2 The practice of high-velocity sewer cleaning is best described as a hydraulic cleaning method that uses water pressure to remove obstructions and deposits in sewers or storm drains.  
4.3 There are different configurations of high-velocity sewer-cleaning machines. These units can generate variable water pressures up to 5000 psi (34 MPa) and variable flow rates of 50 gal per min (gpm) to 125 gal per min (gpm) (180 L per min to 473 L per min).  
4.4 The water tank capacity on these units varies from 1000 gal to 1500 gal (3785 L to 5678 L).  
4.5 The hose lengths vary between 500 ft and 1000 ft (152 m and 305 m) in length with a diameter of 3/4 in. to 11/4 in. NPT.  
4.6 There are a number of different nozzles and tools that may be used during the cleaning process.  
4.7 Some high-velocity sewer cleaners have a vacuum conveyance system that uses large fans or positive displacement vacuum pumps for material removal capabilities. With this type of system, material can be vacuumed from the manhole into a debris tank as it is brought back with the jet or tool and taken to a disposal area. These systems can be either trailer- or truck-mounted and are generally known as combination machines.  
4.8 The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) has set guidelines for the safe removal of hazardous and nonhazardous substances as stated in OSHA Section 5 of Public Law 91-596; OSHA 29 USC 654; 29 CFR 1910.120; as well as DOT CFR 49 Parts 106–107, 171–180, and 390–397.
SCOPE
1.1 This practice covers the personnel requirements, operator training, Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Guidelines, operating procedures, and recommended equipment performance/design for the proper operation of pressure water-jet cleaning and cutting equipment as normally used by municipalities and contractors concerned with operations, maintenance, and cleaning work of Municipal Thermoplastic gravity sewer pipe.  
1.2 The term high-pressure water jetting within this practice covers all water jetting, including the use of jets and hydro mechanical tooling at pressures below 2000 psi (0.69 MPa).  
1.3 This practice covers the high-pressure water jetting of Thermoplastic pipe and should not be applied to other pipe and pipe-lining materials without evaluating the recommended cleaning procedure from the pipe manufacturer to avoid damage.  
1.4 This practice applies to High-Density Polyethylene, Polypropylene, and Polyvinyl Chloride (HDPE, PP, and PVC) Thermoplastic sewer pipe manufactured in accordance with ASTM Standards. It may also be considered for use for any similar thermoplastic pipe products not covered by this list but with similar performance characteristics.  
1.5 The values stated in inch-pound units are to be regarded as standard. The values given in parentheses are mathematical conversions to SI units that are provided for information only and are not considered standard.  
1.6 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, health, and environmental practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use. Some specific hazards statements are given in Section 5 on Hazards/Safety.  
1.7 This international standard was developed in accordance with internationally recognized principles on standardization established in the Decision on Principles for the Development of International Standards, Guides and Recommendations issued by the World Trade Organization Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) Committee.
