e) cemented uniaxial loading;
f) cemented biaxial loading;
g) gasket sealed uniaxial loading;
h) gasket sealed biaxial loading.
NOTE The term “uniaxial loading” refers to pressurization where there is no pressure end thrust component (the
pressure end thrust is taken by the test fixture and not the pipe) and thus the pipe is loaded only in the circumferential
direction while “biaxial loading” refers to pressurization where the pressure end thrust component is carried by the pipe
and thus the pipe is loaded in both circumferential and longitudinal directions.
The joint testing methods give the performance requirements for the various configurations of joints, but
recognizing the very wide range of diameters and pressures it is clearly impractical to test all combinations of
DN/PN. The quality management system shall document the procedures for designing and manufacturing the
joints and include the results of testing programs to verify performance and establish over what range the test
results are applicable and how the design procedures are established and how they apply across the product
range. It is likely that multiple tests will be required to qualify the full range of PN and DN for any given
combination of joint configuration and loading condition and these results shall be documented as part of the
quality management system.
6.2.3.2 Butt/wrap and cemented joints
For butt/wrap and cemented joints, the methodology for designing joints shall be established by conducting
type tests that can be used to establish the procedures for design of the complete range of joints. Butt/wrap
and cemented joints are evaluated according to

6.2.3 Joint type test group
6.2.3.1 General
A joint type test group is determined by the configuration of the joint and the loading condition. Joint type test
groups are the following:
a) flanged uniaxial loading;
b) flanged biaxial loading;
c) butt/wrap uniaxial loading;
d) butt/wrap biaxial loading;
11
---------------------- Page: 13 ----------------------

FprCEN/TS 14632:2011 (E)
e) cemented uniaxial loading;
f) cemented biaxial loading;
g) gasket sealed uniaxial loading;
h) gasket sealed biaxial loading.
NOTE The term “uniaxial loading” refers to pressurization where there is no pressure end thrust component (the
pressure end thrust is taken by the test fixture and not the pipe) and thus the pipe is loaded only in the circumferential
direction while “biaxial loading” refers to pressurization where the pressure end thrust component is carried by the pipe
and thus the pipe is loaded in both circumferential and longitudinal directions.
The joint testing methods give the performance requirements for the various configurations of joints, but
recognizing the very wide range of diameters and pressures it is clearly impractical to test all combinations of
DN/PN. The quality management system shall document the procedures for designing and manufacturing the
joints and include the results of testing programs to verify performance and establish over what range the test
results are applicable and how the design procedures are established and how they apply across the product
range. It is likely that multiple tests will be required to qualify the full range of PN and DN for any given
combination of joint configuration and loading condition and these results shall be documented as part of the
quality management system.
6.2.3.2 Butt/wrap and cemented joints
For butt/wrap and cemented joints the methodology for designing joints shall be established by conducting
type tests that can be used to establish the procedures for design of the complete range of joints. Butt/wrap
and cemented joints are evaluated according to ISO 8533. When applicable, the bending resistance of end
thrust loaded joints is evaluated according to ISO 8533 or the procedure given in of EN 1796:2006+A1:2008,
Annex A, or EN 14364:2006+A1:2008, Annex A, as applicable, as agreed by manufacturer and purchaser.
6.2.3.3 Bolted flanged joints
For bolted flanged joints the methodology for design shall be established by conducting type tests that can be
used to establish the procedures for the design of the complete range of joints. Testing of flanged joints shall
also consider the type of gasket (flat face or O-ring) sealing systems. Flanged joints are evaluated according
to ISO 8483. When applicable, the bending resistance of end thrust loaded joints is evaluated according to
ISO 8483 or the procedure given in EN 1796:2006+A1:2008, Annex A, or EN 14364:2006+A1:2008, Annex A,
as applicable, as agreed by manufacturer and
