Standard Test Method for Joint Restraint Products for Use with PVC Pipe

ABSTRACT
This test method describes a procedure for qualifying the performance of joint restraint products for use on PVC pressure pipe systems by evaluating the effect of the joint restraint product on the performance characteristics of PVC pipe during cyclic pressure tests and static pressure tests. This test method is useful for establishing any effects that a joint restraint product has on the performance of PVC pressure pipe. This test method is designed so that success in all three parts of the test provides reasonable assurance that a joint restraint product may be used on PVC pipe at the full pressure rating and capacity of the pipe. Pipe specimen length, minimum burst pressure test, sustained pressure test, and cyclic surge pressure test shall be performed to conform with the specified requirements.
SIGNIFICANCE AND USE
This test method is useful for establishing any effects that a joint restraint product has on the performance of PVC pressure pipe. This test method is designed so that success in all three parts of the test provides reasonable assurance that a joint restraint product may be used on PVC pipe at the full pressure rating and capacity of the pipe.  
Restrained joint test specimens shall be subjected to internal pressures that are equal to the minimum burst pressure requirements for the pipe alone. The minimum burst pressure requirements for some common dimension ratios are shown in Table 1. The minimum burst pressures for other dimension ratios of pipe produced from 12454 PVC Compound (that is, pipe conforming to Specification D1785) may be determined based on a hoop stress of 6400 psi (44.13 MPa).  
Testing of restrained joint test specimens for 1000 h at the sustained pressure requirements indicates any tendency of the restraint to fail in the long term. The minimum sustained pressure requirements for some common dimension ratios are shown in Table 2. The minimum sustained pressure for other dimension ratios of pipe produced from 12454 PVC Compound (for example, pipe conforming to Specification D1785) may be determined based on a hoop stress of 4200 psi (28.96 MPa).  
A cyclic surge pressure test of restrained joint test specimens determines the effect of the joint restraint product on the cyclic fatigue life of PVC pipe. This test method provides a means for quickly identifying any reduction in performance that might result from the combination of the joint restraint product and the pipe. The peak hoop stress shall be determined for the pipe based on the Vinson equation for a period of 1 000 000 cycles. The base pressure shall be one half of the peak pressure. The peak pressure requirements for some common dimension ratios are shown in Table 3. The peak pressure for other dimension ratios for pipe produced from 12454 PVC Compound (for example, pipe conforming to ...
SCOPE
1.1 This test method describes a procedure for qualifying the performance of joint restraint products for use on PVC pressure pipe systems by evaluating the effect of the joint restraint product on the performance characteristics of PVC pipe during cyclic pressure tests and static pressure tests. The PVC pipe property values referenced in this test method are for the 12454 compound as described in Specification D1784 and a 4,000 HDB shall be obtained by categorizing the LTHS in accordance with Table 1 in Test Method D2837. That includes, but is not limited to, pipe produced in accordance with the following standards: Specifications D1785 and D2241, AWWA C900 , and AWWA C905.  
1.2 This test method determines the short-term performance of a joint restraint product on PVC pipe, which involves the testing of restrained joint test sections to the minimum burst pressure requirements of the pipe to determine quick burst performance.  
1.3 This test method determines the long-term effect of a joint restraint product on PVC pipe, which involves the testing of restrained joint test sections to the sustained pressure req...
