(Specification)Standard Specification for Poly(Vinyl Chloride) (PVC) Sewer and Drain Pipe Containing Recycled PVC Material
Standard Specification for Poly(Vinyl Chloride) (PVC) Sewer and Drain Pipe Containing Recycled PVC Material
ABSTRACT
This specification covers the requirements and related test methods for materials, dimensions, workmanship, chemical resistance, and joint tightness of sewer and drain pipes made from either virgin or recycled poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) compound. This specification also covers four-inch perforated pipes, but the joint tightness test is not applicable for this product. The pipes shall also be tested and thereby conform accordingly to the requirements for flattening resistance, extrusion quality, impact strength and resistance, stiffness, solvent cement, and perforations.
SCOPE
1.1 This specification covers pipe made from PVC compound that includes recycled PVC material. This specification covers requirements and test methods for materials, dimensions, workmanship, chemical resistance, and joint tightness of poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) sewer and drain pipe. Four-inch perforated pipe is also covered; the joint tightness test is not applicable for this product. A form of marking to indicate compliance with this specification is also included.
1.2 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.
1.3 The text of this standard references notes and footnotes which provide explanatory material. These notes, footnotes, and the Appendices (excluding those in tables and figures) shall not be considered as requirements of this standard.
1.4 The following precautionary caveat pertains only to the test methods portion, Section 7, of this specification: 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.
1.5 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.

Fed. Std. No. 123 Marking for Shipment (Civil Agencies)
2.3 Military Standard:

3. Terminology
3.1 Definitions—Definitions used are in accordance with Terminology F412, and abbreviations are in accordance with
Terminology D1600, unless otherwise specified. The abbreviation for poly(vinyl chloride) is PVC.
3.2 Definitions of Terms Specific to This Standard:
3.2.1 external recycled material—clean rework material generated by a manufacturer, processor, or fabricator in a facility
outside the plant where this pipe (PS 1) is made.
3.2.2 internal recycled material—clean rework material generated from the manufacturer’s own pipe or fitting production.
3.2.3 post-consumer recycled material—those plastics composed of post-consumer material or recovered material only, or both,
that may or may not have been subjected to additional processing steps of the types used to make products such as recycled-regrind,
or reprocessed or reconstituted plastics. These materials must be clean and graded as to material cell class.
3.2.4 recycled materials—general term that encompasses all three subgroups—external recycled material, internal recycled
material, and post-consumer recycled material.
NOTE 1—The terms in 3.2.1 and 3.2.3 come from ISO TC 138 SC1. Use of recycled materials will reduce the amount of landfill space needed.
4. Significance and Use
4.1 The requirements of this specification are intended to provide pipe suitable for non-pressure drainage of sewage, surface
water, and certain other liquid wastes in applications outside the building limits where toughness, resistance to deterioration from
action of water and chemicals, dimensional stability, resistance to aging and, except for the perforated pipe, where strong tight
joints are required. The PVC plastic sewer and drain pipe described in this specification are not intended for use as public or
municipal collector sewers, or their extended branches, but they are intended for the following:
4.1.1 Building sewers and underground drains,
4.1.2 Storm drainage,
4.1.3 House connections to septic tanks,
4.1.4 Leaching system piping for septic tank effluents,
4.1.5 Footing drains (foundation drains),
4.1.6 Industrial waste disposal, and
4.1.7 Land drainage.
5. Materials
5.1 General—The pipe shall be made from a PVC compound having a minimum tensile strength of 4000 psi (27.6 MPa) and
a minimum cell class of 12154-C in accordance with Specification D1784. This PVC compound shall contain a minimum of 5 %
of recycled PVC material. Compounds that have different cell classification because one or more properties are superior to those
of the specified compounds are also acceptable, as long as the pipe meets all the requirements of this specification.
6. Requirements
6.1 Workmanship—The pipe and fittings shall be homogeneous throughout and free from visible cracks, holes, foreign
inclusions, or other injurious defects. The pipe shall be as uniform as commercially practical in color, opacity, density, and other
physical properties.
6.2 Flattening—There shall be no evidence of splitting, cracking, or breaking when the pipe is tested in accordance with 7.4.
6.3 Extrusion Quality—The pipe shall not flake or disintegrate when tested in accordance with Test Method D2152.
NOTE 2—This test is intended only for use as a quality control test, not for use as a simulated service test.
6.4 Impact Resistance—The impact resistance of pipe shall be determined in accordance with Test Method D2444, using a 20-lb
(10-kg) Tup A and Holder B (flat plate), and shall comply with the requirements given in Table 1 (Note 2). For perforated pipe,
samples are to be cut and tested at random without regard to hole location, except that the point of impact shall not coincide with
a perforation.
