Pipes with welded flanges have the DN and PN rating cast on the rear of the flange (see Fig. 1.1.23). 27 Fig.1.1.27 Fig. 1.1.23

Fittings have the diameter in mm and PN rating of the flange cast behind the flange or on the fitting body (see Fig. 1.1.24). 28 Fig.1.1.28 Fig. 1.1.23

Adjustable Flanges
Adjustable flanges are available on selected fittings DN80-600 and flange on socket tees to DN1200 where the branch is DN600 or less. The flange is a moveable flange mounted on the fitting body and provides easy alignment of the flanges (see Fig. 1.1.25). 29 The diameter and PN rating of the flange is cast on the moveable flange (see Fig. 1.1.26). 30

Flange gaskets
Fixed flanges utilise a flat rubber gasket, 3mm thick and 80 IRHD hardness. These can be supplied as full face gaskets (see Fig. 1.1.27) 31 or with two ears which aid alignment (see Fig. 1.1.28). 32

Fig.1.1.32

Adjustable flanges and fixed flanges DN60, DN125, DN1800 and DN2000 use gaskets which have metal inserts, which, because of the stiffness, help in assembly and reduce the risk of extrusion in service (see 1.1.29and andFig. Fig.1.1.34). 1.1.30). (see Fig. 1.1.33

1.2 Handling & Storage

It is important to consider that pipes and fittings can be heavy items and can cause injury if mishandled. Particular attention must be paid to all aspects of safety when handling. These instructions are intended for guidance to ensure that the quality of pipes and fittings is not impaired during handling. Proper regard must be paid to all appropriate health and safety regulations in handling pipes and fittings. The contractor should not rely on these instructions for any purpose other than maintaining the quality of pipes and fittings during handling, storage and installation. They should not overrule any site safety procedures. The stock ground area should provide a firm foundation with a suitable approach road for vehicles. It is essential that pipe weights, type of stacking, outreach required and site conditions are taken into account when determining the suitability of lifting equipment. The lifting equipment must be able to cope with the weight of the load and retain the load safely in the event of power failure. Ensure that the machine is operating on hard, level and stable ground. Stacks should be arranged to provide a safe vehicular and pedestrian access. All pipes should be secured to the lorry, trailer or railway wagon during transit to minimise movement. The preferred means of securing will depend upon the coating system on the pipes e.g. straps for standard bitumen/epoxy coatings. The pipes will be loaded on to the vehicle in bundles or singly in a straight-sided formation using timbers and chocks. Ductile iron pipes and fittings are not generally susceptible to damage by impact, under normal use, but adverse handling can result in damaged coatings and linings. Damage to pipes and fittings may be attributable to: Insecure load on lorry or wagon. Improper use of handling equipment. Use of unsuitable handling equipment. Incorrect stacking methods. Unloading on uneven or sloping ground. Impact between pipes. On receipt, all pipes and fittings should be inspected for damage to: The pipe or fitting itself. Cement mortar linings. Factory applied wrapping. Jointing surfaces.

All damaged pipes or fittings should be set aside for repair and the supplier should be contacted.

Fig. 1.2.8

Slings
Use two broad webbing slings made of Terylene, nylon or other synthetic material capable of withstanding the required loads (see Fig. 1.2.8). Never attempt to utilise chains or wire ropes as slings as these might allow the pipes to slip, or cause damage to the external protection system. Never attempt to lift multiple loose pipes..

Forklift
Take care when lifting, using or removing slings from around the pipes, to avoid damage to the external protection system. Ensure the forklift is operating on hard, level and stable ground. With wrapped pipes, the forks of the forklift must be positioned under the protective bands. Where pipes have no protective band (as when breaking down bundles) extra care should be taken to avoid damage with the forklift blades.

Stacking Non-bundled Pipes

Where individual pipes are to be stacked in a central stock ground for storage and held is pending further distribution, it is recommended that the parallel stacking method be used, using wooden battens between rows. The stacking area should provide a firm foundation with a suitable approach road for vehicles. Stacks should be arranged so as to provide safe vehicular and pedestrian access. During stacking and removal operations, safe access to the top of the stack is essential. In bad weather conditions, when pipe surfaces may become slippery, consideration should be given to the use of lightweight staging placed on top of the stacks. Pipes should be stacked on a base of raised wooden battens positioned approximately 600mm from each end of the pipe (see Fig. 1.2.9). The bottom layer of pipes should be securely anchored. Battens should also be placed across the pipes between each tier approximately 600mm from each end of the pipe. The sockets of pipes in each successive tier should be reversed and the battens should be of sufficient thickness to avoid metal-to-metal contact (see Fig. 1.2.10). Fig. 1.2.10

An adequate number of chocks should be wedged under the outer pipes of each tier and nailed to the timber bearers to ensure stability (see Fig. 1.2.10). Pipes may be rolled into position along the battens, thus facilitating stacking or removal from the end of the stack, however, care must be taken to ensure correct alignment to minimise any possible coating damage.

The maximum recommended number of layers in a stack is given in Table 1.2.3. However, this may need to be reduced depending on site conditions and location.

Stacking Pallets
It is recommended that pallets are stored with the shrink-wrap intact whenever possible. This is particularly important with epoxy coated fittings or valves as the coating may chalk when exposed for prolonged periods in direct sunlight. The ability to stack pallets is dependent upon the shape and size of the fitting or valve. It is not possible to give specific guidelines but the overriding consideration must be for the safety of stock ground personnel.

Off-loading Singles
By Excavator/Crane
The excavator/crane must be capable of lifting the total weight of the item and able to retain the load safely in case of power failure. Use a webbing sling threaded through the bore of the item. Ensure that a safe balance is achieved before completing the lift. Avoid excess chafing between the sling and item as this may damage the coating.

Stacking
Fittings should be stacked according to type and diameter. They must not be in contact with the ground but on timbers or planks. Provide adequate wedging between each fitting in the base layer and at the sides (see Figs. 1.2.12 and 1.2.13). Fig. 1.2.13

Rubber Gasket
Rubber gaskets are supplied either pre-installed, with adequate protection, or in bags. Gaskets should be protected from sunlight, and contact with possible contaminants such as petrol, oil etc. must be avoided. Gaskets should be examined carefully for damage before use. Additional guidance on the storage and protection of gaskets is given in BS 3574 (11). 12

1.3 Pipeline Protection

Application of site applied polyethylene sleeving
Certain precautions must be observed if the effectiveness of site applied loose polyethylene sleeving is not to be compromised by errors which may occur during installation. Damage to the polyethylene film must be avoided at all stages during the sleeving process, i.e. when opening the lay-flat tubular film while drawing the sleeve over the pipe or fitting during backfilling Note: - Pipes and fittings having additional polyethylene sleeving protection become very slippery in wet conditions. All joints at or near fittings utilising thrust blocks should have external wrapping to prevent concrete from the thrust block from entering the joint during placement and curing. Sleeved pipe should be lifted into the trench using padded slings or other lifting tackle that will not damage the sleeving. Any damage to the sleeving must be repaired before backfilling (see Section 1.4 for details). Care must also be taken during the placing of backfill materials to avoid sleeving damage. It is essential to ensure that soil clods and other foreign materials are removed from the pipe or fitting surface prior to sleeving. It has been found that intense corrosion can occur beneath soil clods attached to the pipe or fitting surface, which have been over-wrapped during sleeving. Loose polyethylene sleeving may fail to provide adequate protection if the pipe invert becomes exposed to flowing (ground) water, since this provides an effectively unlimited supply of fresh corrodent to sustain the corrosion reaction. This highlights the importance of sealing the ends of the sleeving and also the need to repair any sleeving damage incurred during installation. Close fitting of the sleeving around the pipe barrel is very important to ensure maximum performance of the sleeving system. In the event of the sleeving being damaged allowing moisture ingress, a snug fit helps promote thin film conditions which reduce the effect of any corrosion cells which might be established. Where fittings are incorporated in a pipeline and these are surrounded wholly or partially by concrete anchor blocks, it is important that the sleeving is continued under the concrete and no areas of metal are left exposed to the surrounding backfill. Note that joints on polyethylene sleeved iron mains should not be electrically overbonded (e.g. as for cathodic protection) since this can stimulate localised galvanic corrosion at areas of bare metal, such as ground spigot surfaces.

Application - Pipes
Cut a piece of sleeving approximately 0.5m longer than the length of the pipe, e.g. 6m for 5.5m pipes. Slide the sleeving onto the spigot end and bunch up behind spigot timber (see Fig. 1.3.1). Fig. 1.3.1

Fig. 1.3.3 Reposition the spigot timber at the spigot end, place pipe with timbers at ends and pull the sleeving over the full length of the pipe (see Fig. 1.3.2). Fig. 1.3.2

As an alternative, small and intermediate diameter pipes may be supported using a specially fabricated padded hairpin style lifting beam of appropriate design, inserted into one end of the pipe, allowing the sleeving to be pulled into position in one operation. Ensure that the sleeving is correctly positioned relative to the spigot end. Pull the sleeving tightly around the pipe barrel and fold the surplus over the crown of the pipe to form a triple thickness layer (see Fig. 1.3.3). Secure the fold in position using short strips of plastic adhesive tape as necessary along the length of the fold. At the spigot end of the pipe, leave enough of the spigot exposed to make the joint (see Fig. 1.3.4). Fig. 1.3.4

Then tape the end of the sleeving to the pipe body around the whole circumference ensuring that the tape overlaps the end of the sleeve onto the pipe. Where polyethylene sheets are used, both circumferential and longitudinal ends must be taped down. Pipes shorter than the standard length can be sleeved in a similar manner. The excess sleeve at the socket end may be left pulled back from the socket, or alternatively it may be temporarily folded into the mouth of the socket to keep out extraneous material while positioning the pipe in the trench.

21

Section 1: Pre Installation

22

Lay the pipe in the trench with the triple layer of sleeving on the crown to provide a cushioning effect during backfilling and make the joint in the recommended manner (see Section 2.2). If the sleeving has been folded into the socket, ensure that this is removed prior to jointing. If hydraulic jointing tackle is being used an extra piece of sleeving placed between the pipe and the tackle will help to protect the sleeving around the pipe from damage. After completion of the joint, any exposed portion of the spigot end between the sleeving and the face of the adjoining socket should be taped over using plastic adhesive tape. It should be ascertained that the sleeving or tape at the spigot end is not trapped under the gasket as this could impair the seal of the joint. Draw the excess sleeve over the joint, fold it neatly and tape around the circumference of the pipe at the back of the socket. Make a second pass with the tape around the circumference immediately in front of the socket. Finally, tape the end of the sleeve around the full circumference making sure that the tape overlaps onto the sleeve of the adjacent pipe to effect a seal (see Fig. 1.3.5). Fig. 1.3.5

Damage Repairs
Should the polythene sleeving be damaged during pipe handling or installation it can easily be repaired on-site. Please refer to Section 1.4 for details.

Tape Wrapping
Application
The tape wrap is normally factory-applied to the pipe barrel leaving the socket and spigot area to be wrapped after jointing. Site application is not normally recommended but can be achieved by spirally winding a hand wrap tape round the pipe barrel, overlapping the edges by 25mm or 55% depending on the pipeline environment. The tape should be pulled tight and smoothed over with a gloved hand to ensure adhesion and eliminate any air bubbles or voids may be left between the pipe and the tape.

Joint Protection
The metal area of the pipe and adjoining tape wrapping on the pipe barrel should be dry and clean. The clean, dry prepared surface should then be brush primed. The primer is classified as a hazardous substance and the manufacturers instructions should be followed. If in doubt refer to manufacturers COSHH sheets. Fig. 1.3.6

Once dry, press a mastic blanket or LD mastic firmly into position so that full contact is made with the primed metal and a smooth profile is built up to the socket face (see Fig. 1.3.6). Fig. 1.3.7 Using a hand grade tape, spirally wrap the joint area from the back of the socket to the spigot of the adjacent pipe, using sufficient tension to ensure conformability to the joint profile.

Joint wrapping should extend a minimum of 50mm onto the pipe barrel protection. End tape overlap between adjoining rolls should be a minimum of 150mm (see Fig. 1.3.7).

Mechanical Rapid Anchor Ve JointJoints (Mechanical)

There are are two twomethods methods recommended for protecting Mechanical Anchor joints recommended for protecting Rapid Ve joint (Mechanical) inin aa tape wrapped wrapped pipeline. pipeline.

Method 1: Petrolatum Tape

All surfaces of the joint and adjacent area should be cleared. The clean, dry prepared surface should then be brush primed with a coat of petroleum primer. The primer is classified as a hazardous substance and the manufacturers instructions should be followed. If in doubt refer to manufacturers COSHH sheets. A petrolatum blanket, of appropriate size for the joint, should then be placed equidistant around the invert of the joint and pushed well home around its profile to eliminate voids. Further blankets, as required, should be similarly applied extending upwards to the crown of the pipe. All overlaps should be a minimum of 75mm, with the upper blanket always overlapping the one below (see Fig. 1.3.8). Fig. 1.3.8

Apply 150mm wide tape wrap in a spiral fashion over the joint area, commencing and finishing a minimum of 150mm onto the adjacent protective coating. Position the first 75mm of tape onto the pipe and smooth over with a gloved hand to secure adhesion. Wrap spirally over the joint employing sufficient tension to obtain conformability to the joint profile. Smooth over as before to ensure overall adhesion. The circumferential overlap should be 55% and end laps a minimum of 150mm.

Method 2: Shrink Sleeves

An alternative method of providing protection at joints is by the use of heat shrink sleeves. All surfaces of the joint and adjacent area of the pipe should be thoroughly cleaned. Fit the appropriate size sleeve in accordance with the manufacturers instructions, taking care not to damage the protection system already in place when applying heat to the sleeve. Once the the sleeve sleeveis isshrunk shrunk around the joint, each end should sealed by overaround the joint, each end should be be sealed by overwrapping from fromthe thesleeve sleeve onto the pipe body, using heavy duty to prevent prevent onto the pipe body, using medium duty PVC tape, tape, to the ingress ingressof ofground groundwater. water.

1.4 Coating Repairs

Pipes and Fittings
The method of surface preparation required for repair of coating damage depends upon the severity and extent of that damage. Where the damage does not expose the iron substrate or where the damage exposes less than 25 cm2 of bare iron substrate AND the width of the damage is less than 5 mm, roughen the surface of the coating and any bare metal surfaces using a wire brush or abrasive paper. Remove all traces of rust and dust or other non-adherent material. The exposed area can be preheated to around 40C (i.e. "hand-hot") to aid curing, using a gentle flame played over the area avoiding damage to adjacent coating. Repairs should not be attempted in temperatures less than 5C. Apply the appropriate paint i.e. two-pack solvent based epoxy paint, mixed and prepared according to the manufacturers instructions supplied with the paint, or bitumen paint, by brush in criss-cross passes until it is up to the level of the original coat and overlapping the edges. Allow to dry. Where the damage exposes more than 25 cm2 of bare iron substrate, or the width of the damage is greater than 5 mm, shot blast the surface of the damaged area, overlapping slightly onto coating in good condition, or thoroughly wire brush the surface to remove all traces of rust, dust or other non-adherent material. The prepared surface should be uniformly grey with a slight metallic sheen. Again the exposed area can be preheated to around 40C (i.e. "hand-hot") using a gentle flame played over the area avoiding damage to adjacent coating. Prime the exposed surface with two pack zinc rich epoxy primer (this should contain a minimum of 90% zinc solids by mass of dry film), mixed and prepared in accordance with the manufacturers instructions supplied with the paint to a minimum dry film thickness of 50 microns. Allow to dry in accordance with the manufacturers instructions. Apply the appropriate paint i.e. a two-pack solvent based epoxy paint, mixed and prepared according to the manufacturers instructions supplied with the paint, or bitumen paint, using a brush in criss-cross passes until it is up to the level of the original coat and overlapping the edges. Allow to dry. PAM Integral pipes DN80-2000 and PAM Natural pipes DN80-800 should be painted with a two-pack solvent based epoxy paint of the relevant colour. Water pipes DN8002000 should be painted with black bitumen paint. PAM Integral and PAM Natural fittings uti DN400 should be painted with a two-pack solvent free epoxy paint of the relevant colour. Fittings >DN400 should be painted with a two-pack solvent based epoxy paint of the relevant colour. NOTE: To build up the correct coating thickness on fittings it may be necessary to use a spatula rather than a brush. For outdoor repair in cold climates the bitumen paint may be thick and difficult to apply unless it is warmed. Warming the paint may be carried out by storing in a warm room or by lowering the paint can partially into a large container of hot water. On no account should heat be applied directly to the bitumen paint container. During repair the pipe must be kept dry, even to the extent of erecting a canopy. Zinc rich paint, epoxy paints and bitumen paints are classified as a hazardous substances and the safety instructions provided by the manufacturers of the material used for repair should be carefully followed. If in doubt refer to manufacturers COSHH sheets.

Site Applied Polyethylene-wrapping Repairs

If the polyethylene sleeving is damaged during pipe handling or installation it can easily be repaired on-site. Wipe clean and dry the damaged area. Any torn sleeving can be either smoothed down or cut off. Cut a sheet of polyethylene of sufficient size to cover the damaged area and pass around the circumference of the pipe. Plastic adhesive tape should be applied circumferentially to form a seal at both ends of the repair and also to the longitudinal seam.

Repairs to Spirally Tape Wrapped Pipes

Where spiral tape wrapping is damaged, the following repair procedure should be followed: Remove punctured or disbonded tape using a sharp knife, forming a circular or oval cut shape (avoid angular cuts). Care should be taken to ensure that the edges are smoothly finished.

Ensure that the cleared area is free from debris or contaminants. Apply primer to the cleared area, and allow to dry.

Note: The primer is classified as a hazardous substance and the manufacturers instructions should be followed. If in doubt refer to manufacturers COSHH sheets.

Apply hand-applied tape to the cleared and primed area, using sufficient tension to ensure good conformability.

1. Wrapping should be made in the same direction as the existing tape coating. 2. Wrapping should commence and finish on the opposite side of the pipe to where the damage has been sustained. 3. Wrapping should be made with a 55% overlap. 4. Wrapping should extend a minimum of 75mm either side of the damaged area.

Tape width should be appropriate to the diameter of the pipe.

1. Use 100mm width tape for pipes DN80-150. 2. Use 150mm width tape for pipes DN200-2000. Care should be taken at all stages to ensure that no air bubbles are entrapped underneath the tape wrapping.

If this isfor not available then, for or Blast Furnace cement should be used be and for sewer pipes an HAC cement be used. water pipes, an OPC cement should used and for PAM Integral pipesshould an HAC cement should be used. Do not attempt a lining repair if the ambient temperature is 5C. If possible position the pipe or fitting with the damaged area at invert level (see Fig. 1.4.1). Carefully chip out the damaged lining. Undercut the edges of the surrounding sound lining to form a key for the repair (see Fig. 1.4.2). Clean away all loose debris (see Fig. 1.4.3). Thoroughly wet the exposed metal surface and the edges of the lining around the exposed area (see Fig. 1.4.4). Prepare the mortar for the repair. This should be stiff and consist of one part cement to approximately 1.5 parts dry washed coarse sand (by mass) and be mixed with fresh potable water. Place the mortar with a hand trowel (or float for large areas), and work it well into the edges of the existing lining (see Fig. 1.4.5). Build up the repair to a thickness just above that of the original lining and finally smooth down to the required thickness using a piece of wood against the pipe end, if appropriate, to produce a square end. Leave to cure for one day. On hot days cover with a wet sack, or similar, to prevent rapid evaporation until the mortar is sufficiently hardened. On completion of the repair, check that the cement mortar has been allowed to cure correctly, that it is firmly bonded to the pipe and is free from excessively wide cracks (see Table 1.9.1). Note: For System XL pipes, it is only necessary to repair damage to the cement. No attempt should be made to repair the seal coat itself.

Pipe Cutting
Ductile iron pipes can be cut by a number of methods. Where flexible joints are to be made, the cut ends must be trimmed with a file or grinder to remove the burr formed during cutting and, unless the joint is to be made with couplings or adaptors, a chamfer must be provided (see Fig. 1.5.3 and Table 1.5.2).

Power driven abrasive disc

These cutters should only be used by properly trained personnel. This is one of the most widely used methods for cutting ductile iron pipe. It has the advantage of being suitable for all sizes. There is no need for adjustment to suit pipe or attach machinery to the pipe. The abrasive discs are fitted to suitable hand held power tools usually driven by compressed air or small internal combustion engines. It is important when ordering disc cutting equipment to state that it is for use with ductile iron pipe and to ensure that the disc type and size and the spindle speed of the equipment are compatible.

Semi rotary wheel cutter

A number of semi rotary wheel type cutters are available, ranging from the standard chain link cutters to more sophisticated tools employing a rigid hinged frame. With this type of equipment it is important to ensure that wheels specifically designed for use with ductile iron are employed. This type of cutter is normally used on pipes in the smaller diameter range.

Rotary and orbital pipe cutters

Cutting tools of either the simple lathe or milling saw type respectively are available throughout the diameter range. Whichever type of cutter is employed the machine is attached to the pipe and the cutting tool is driven around the pipe by means of gears on a chain link track. The orbital type cutters have the advantage on the larger sizes of ductile iron pipe in that they are capable of accommodating the ovality which is sometimes present. These types of machinery are usually driven mechanically, e.g. by compressed air motor although for pipes in the smaller diameters a hand-operated windlass may be employed. In machines using lathe type cutting tools, the cutter heads must have a 7 front rake.

Reciprocating power saws

These may also be used for cutting ductile iron pipe. These tools are usually electrically driven and for this reason they are principally used in depots or workshops where a power supply is available.

Any burrs or sharp edges left after cutting must be trimmed off by filing or grinding. Where Rapid joints are to be used, the cut ends should be chamfered by filing or INSTALLATION grinding to give a radius of 3mm 3 and a chamfer profile similar ends and a chamfer profile similarto tothe theoriginal original spigot ends (see SSEMBLY Fig. 1.5.3 and Table 1.5.2).

1.6 Ovality Correction

Fig. 1.6.1 Where pipes have been cut on site, the following procedures should be carried out in order to check and correct the ovality of the new spigot end.

Major

Measure the length of the major axis. Only where this exceeds the dimension specified in Table 1.5.1 will ovality correction be required prior to jointing. Spigots to be jointed into sockets must be chamfered to give a similar profile as the original spigot end (see Table 1.5.2).

Axis

Method A
Fig. 1.6.2 The use of this method is recommended where it is possible to remove the tackle after ovality correction and subsequent jointing. Position the timber strut and jack (approximately 5 tonnes capacity) 100mm 200mm inside the spigot end and at 90 to the major axis. Rubber pads should be placed in position to prevent possible damage to the pipe lining (see Fig. 1.6.1). Extend the jack until the major axis has been reduced to the appropriate limit specified in Table 1.5.1. Complete the jointing operation with the major axis of the spigot vertical. After jointing, remove the tackle. Note: In some instances, e.g. jointing into couplings, it may be necessary to use two jacks in order to obtain a round profile.

Major Axis

Method B:
The use of this method is recommended where it is not possible to remove the tackle described in Method A, after ovality correction and subsequent jointing. Place the tackle around the spigot end of the pipe at a position approximately 450mm from the pipe end with major axis of the spigot vertical (see Fig. 1.6.2). Where pipes are sleeved or tape wrapped, rubber pads or similar should be placed between the re-rounding tackle and the protection system to prevent damage. Tighten the two nuts evenly until the major axis has been reduced to the appropriate limits specified in Table 1.5.1. Complete the jointing operation with the major axis of the spigot vertical. After jointing remove the tackle. Note: Where the pipes are to be concreted into a structure they should, if necessary, be re-rounded before this is done and left until the concrete has set before removing the rerounding tackle.

1.7 Moving Pipes & Fittings Onsite

When transporting pipes and fittings on site, the load should be properly secured to the vehicle. Should it be necessary to travel for a short distance with a suspended load, this should be carried as near to the ground as practicable and steadied by ropes to prevent any pendulum motion. Pipes and fittings should not be placed in positions where they could be damaged by mechanical equipment or vehicles moving about the site or there is a risk of contamination by the ingress of soil, animals, fuel oils, chemicals etc. End caps may be used to help prevent accidental contamination.

Pipe Stringing
When stringing pipes alongside the trench, dropping the pipes is to be avoided at all times, they should also be wedged or pinned to prevent accidental movement. Pipes should not be dragged or placed on stones or other objects that may damage the protective coating or sleeving and they should be supported evenly along their length. Where there is a risk of damaging the protective coating, especially factory applied polyethylene sleeving, timbers should be placed beneath the pipes to raise them clear of the ground. When stringing pipes in a road or on other hard surfaces the pipes should be completely supported on timbers clear of the surface.

Lowering Pipes and Fittings into Trench

Pipes and fittings should be placed into the trench by crane, or excavator backhoe (see Fig. 1.7.1). Broad webbing slings should be used, which are made of Terylene, nylon or other synthetic material capable of withstanding the required loads. Never attempt to utilise chains or wire ropes as slings as these might allow the pipes to slip, or cause damage to the external protection system. Where a crane with single sling is used, the balance of the pipe should be checked with the pipe just clear of the ground. Smaller diameter pipes can be hung with a single sling from an excavator backhoe. Site safety rules should be observed at all times.

1.9 Pre-installation Inspection

Ductile iron pipes are not normally susceptible to handling and transport damage but mishandling can damage protective coatings, wrapping and linings or bruise and deform jointing surfaces and may create ovality. The following checks should be undertaken shortly before lowering the pipes and fittings into the trench: Deformation of the pipe

Loss of any mortar lining.

Note: mortar linings may contain small shrinkage cracks and areas of disbondment which should not affect the stability and effectiveness of the lining, permissible crack widths are shown in Table 1.9.1.

Cuts or tears to the wrapping Loss of epoxy/bitumen coating Spigot jointing surfaces for correct chamfer, protrusions in socket and paint build up in socket area check that no foreign matter has entered pipes

Any defective pipes or fittings should be identified and stored away from the compliant pipes and fittings. For minor coating/lining repairs please refer to Section 1.4.

38

2.1 Pipe Laying

When stringing pipes out along the line of the main, avoid dragging or dropping the pipes and check the ground for sharp objects which might cause damage to the coating or wrapping. Where possible a timber support under the spigot end is recommended. Before laying, check each pipe for any damage to the external protection system and carry out such repair work as necessary (see Section 1.4 for details). Working in trenches and lifting are hazardous operations. These instructions are designed to ensure that the quality of pipes and fittings is not impaired during installation. It is essential that these operations are entrusted to persons who are skilled in such work. The work must be properly supervised and appropriate regard paid to the relevant health and safety regulations. Pipes should only be lifted into the trench using webbing slings or padded hooks and care should be taken when removing these that the protection system is not damaged in the process. The pipes should not be rolled in from the side of the trench. To prevent damage to the pipes or coatings, contact with sharp objects should be avoided. Rolling the pipe along the ground should not be permitted. Pipes which have protective wrappings around them for transportation and handling purposes should be laid with these still in position. Joint holes should be formed in the bedding material or excavated final surface for each socket to ensure that each pipe is uniformly supported throughout the length of its barrel and to enable the joint to be made. Where pipes are required to be bedded directly on the trench bottom, the final surface should be trimmed and levelled to provide even bedding of the pipeline, and should be free from all extraneous matter that may damage the protective coating. Ensure adequate clearance is excavated under the joints to allow for the joint to be checked and if required, the joint protection to be properly applied. When entering the pipe spigot into the next socket, do so in a straight line. Excessive dragging of the pipe along the trench bottom should also be avoided to prevent damage to the protective coating. Do not lever against the side of the pipe to align pipes after jointing unless a suitable protective pad is used between the pipe and the lever. Backfill should be placed around the pipe in a reasonable manner and not dropped onto the crown of the pipe from an excessive height, to ensure that the protective coating remains undamaged. The trench bottom should be free of any object that is likely to cause damage to the protective coating, as should the pipe surround material in the immediate proximity of the pipes. Backfill should be carefully placed and care taken when compacting to avoid damage to the protective coating. All construction debris should be cleared from the inside of the pipe either before or just after a joint is made. This can be done by passing a pull-through along the pipe, or by hand, depending on the diameter of the pipe. When laying is not in progress, a temporary end-closure should be fitted securely to the open end of the pipeline. This may make the pipes buoyant in the event of the trench becoming flooded, in which case the pipes should be held down either by partial re-filling of the trench or by temporary strutting. No protective cap, disc or other appliance on the end of a pipe or fitting should be removed permanently until the pipe or fitting which it protects is about to be jointed.

Thrust Blocks
Any additional excavation required to accommodate thrust blocks should be carried out after the bend or branch is in position. The thrust face should be trimmed back to remove all loose or weathered material immediately prior to concreting. Thrust blocks should be allowed to develop adequate strength before any internal pressure is applied to the pipeline.

Pipe Bedding, Surround and Backfill

Bedding for pipes should be laid by spreading and compacting suitable granular bedding material over the full width of the pipe trench. After the pipes have been laid, additional material should, if required, be placed and compacted equally on each side of the pipes under the pipe haunches, and where practicable, this should be done in sequence with the removal of the trench supports to prevent the formation of voids. Fill material should, where required, be placed and compacted over the full width of the trench in layers not exceeding 150mm before compaction to a finished thickness of 250mm above the crown of the pipes. The layers of backfill, up to 250mm above the crown of the pipe, should be placed and compacted with due care being taken not to damage the pipe or protective coatings. Special care should be taken to ensure that there are no large stones or other objects in the backfill that may damage the protective coating during compaction. Wherever possible, in order to minimise misalignment of the bed with resulting shear across the joint, backfill material should not be placed on a pipe until the succeeding pipe is laid and jointed. If joints are to be individually inspected during hydrostatic testing, it is not practicable to backfill the trench completely. It is important, however, to backfill over the barrel of each pipe and compact the backfill or take other such measures to prevent movement of pipes during the testing processes and, in some situations, to avoid flotation. On pipes greater than DN500, special attention should be given to the compaction of the backfill material under the haunch of the pipe. The bedding and surround will be specified in the contract, but the contractor should ensure that consideration has been given to protecting the pipe coatings and sleeving from being damaged during pipe laying. In particular the use of angular granular material 20mm or greater in size for bedding and sidefill should be avoided. For detailed information on bedding and surround, see Water Industry Specification (18) and 4-08-02, 15 (19) Information and Guidance Notes 4-08-01, 4 (17) (18). Where pipes are installed with concrete protection, to maintain flexibility, the concrete protection should be interrupted over its full cross-section at each flexible pipe joint by compressible filler. In highways the backfill should meet the requirement of the HAUC specification.

39

Section 2: Pipe Laying

Fig. 2.2.1

2.2 Rapid Joint

Basic conditions which should be ensured for all types of joint are: Make sure the socket and spigot to be jointed are in good condition. Appropriate chamfer and radius on spigot (see Fig. 1.5.3 and Table 1.5.2). Cleanliness of all parts. Correct location of components. Correct lubrication of joint components. Centralisation of spigot within socket. The inside of sockets and the outside of spigots should be clean for at least the insertion depth of each joint. Glands and gaskets should be wiped clean and inspected for damage. The spigot ends of all pipes should be checked for ovality. Where found to be oval, but within the limits set out in Table 1.5.1 the maximum axis should be buried vertically so the weight of the soil acts to re-round the pipe. If the ovality exceeds the limits set out in Table 1.5.1, please see Section 1.6. Where lifting gear has been used to place the pipe in the trench it should be used to support the pipe and assist in centralising the spigot in the socket. Where the pipeline is suspected to be subject to movement due to ground settlement or temperature variation, a suitable gap should be left between the end of the spigot and the bottom of the socket. If pipes are laid on a steep gradient where the soil/pipe friction is low, care should be taken to ensure that no excessive spigot entry or withdrawal occurs. As soon as the joint assembly has been made, the pipe should be held in place and the trench backfilled over the barrel of the pipe. Unless the gradient is 1:2 or steeper, anchorage is not normally necessary. However, for these very steep gradients, self-anchoring joints or anchor blocks at each socket are recommended. For pipelines laid above ground on steep gradients, self-anchoring joints should be used.

Jointing Instructions
General instructions for jointing are listed below, followed by the various methods for making the joint. Before assembly, the outside of the spigot and the inside of the socket of the two pipeline components to be joined must be thoroughly cleaned. Where there are no minimum and maximum insertion depths on the pipe, these should be marked according to Table 2.2.1. Insertion of the gasket may, if necessary, be facilitated by the prior application of a thin film of lubricant to the sealing chamber of the socket only (see Fig. 2.2.1). When using anchor gaskets do not apply any lubricant on the inside of the socket or the outside of the gasket. Note: Please follow the Health and Safety guidance specified on the lubricant packaging. If in doubt refer to manufacturers COSHH sheets.

40

Fig. 2.2.2

The gasket should be inspected to ensure it is not deformed or damaged. The rubber gasket should be cleaned, flexed and then placed in the socket. Care must be taken to ensure that the gasket is correctly seated in the socket. Make sure the joint ring fits evenly around the whole circumference and smooth out any bulges which would prevent the proper entry of the spigot end (see Fig. 2.2.2). In the larger diameters this operation may be assisted by forming additional loops in the ring opposite the first, then pressing the loops flat one after the other (see Fig. 2.2.3). Apply a thin film of lubricant to the inside surface of the joint ring, where it will come into contact with the entering spigot. The spigot should also be covered with a thin film of lubricant for a distance of 75 mm from the end for pipes DN60-600 and 120mm for pipes DN700-2000 (see Fig. 2.2.4). The incoming spigot must be aligned and entered carefully into the socket until it makes contact with the joint ring. Final assembly of the joint is completed from this position. Do not hook the spigot into the socket and lower the pipe into place as this may dislodge the gasket during jointing. The joint is then made by forcing the spigot of the entering pipe past the gasket of the receiving pipe, thus compressing the gasket, until the socket face is positioned between the recommended and the minimum insertion marks (see Fig. 2.2.5). Note: Insertion of the spigot past the recommended insertion mark can lead to damage to the cement lining and reduction in angular deflection and consequently may result in joint failure.

Note: Insertion depths for anchor joints joints are are different different - see Section Section 2.4 2.4,for 2.7details. and 2.8 for details. If this final assembly cannot be attained by the application of reasonable force, the spigot should be withdrawn and the position of the joint ring examined and replaced if necessary. Where necessary the spigot can be withdrawn from the bottom of the socket by moving the far end of the pipe upwards and sideways for a distance of about 150mm, and then returning to the straight position. Having successfully inserted the spigot, the joint should then be checked to see if the gasket is correctly seated. This is done by inserting a metal rule into the socket gap (see Fig. 2.2.8). The depth of penetration should be equal around the whole circumference. If a difference is found the gasket may have been displaced and the joint should be dismantled and re-made. Assembly of the joint is quick and simple, and may, according to size and local conditions, be carried out by any of the methods described in Section 2.9.

Joint Deflection
Long radius curves may be negotiated by deflecting the joints (see Fig. 2.2.9). The pipes should be jointed straight and then pulled to the required deflection . This deflection should not exceed the recommended deflection for offsets as shown in Table 2.9.1. 2.2.2. The remaining flexibility is required for any subsequent pipeline settlement or ground movement. Fig. 2.2.9

Joint Preparation
Thoroughly clean the spigot, interior of socket and gasket. These gaskets should be inserted into the socket dry. Do not lubricate. Fold the gasket as shown in Fig. 2.3.1, taking care to position the inner loop between teeth and insert the gasket into the socket. Apply a thin film of lubricant to the surface of the gasket and to the outside surface of the spigot. Warning: Extra care should be taken as the anchor teeth are very sharp. Note: Please follow the Health and Safety guidance specified on the lubricant packaging. If in doubt refer to manufacturers COSHH sheets.

Lubricating Paste

Joint Assembly
The jointing method for pipes and fittings using anchor gaskets is the same as for pipes and fittings using normal gaskets, and all forms of jointing tackle described in Section 2.2 can be used. However, with anchor gaskets extra care should be taken to make sure the joint is made in line. With anchor gaskets a certain amount of axial withdrawal occurs as anchorage is taken up. Care must be taken to ensure that the pipe layout is such that this movement does not cause excessive deflection at any other joints. On buried mains the anchored joint on fittings and pipes must be buried before pressure testing, in order to minimise movement. Where mains are not to be buried all of the necessary securing and strapping of the pipework appropriate to its final installation must be carried out before pressure testing, for the same reason.

Joint Dismantling
The dismantling procedure for joints with anchor gaskets is described in Section 2.13.

Apply lubricant to the exposed surface of the gasket and the spigot end and chamfer. Centre the spigot in the socket and joint using one of the methods previously described. Note: Check the insertion depth on all pipes. The insertion depth is deeper when using the Universal socket due to the double chamber. The pipes should be jointed straight, any deflection can be made once the joint has been completed.

2.7 Rapid Rapid Ve Joint (Mechanical) 2.4 Mechanical Anchor

Preparation
joint (Mechanical) DN80-1200 is achieved Anchorage using the Rapid Ve mechanical anchored joint (DN80-1200) is by achieved by pushing a spigot into a socket, then holding it in position with an anchoring system 2.7.1 comprising a locking ring and bolted gland (see Fig. 2.4.1). Fig.2.7.1

If a pipe has been cut on site, the spigot will require the correct chamfer and radius (refer to Section 1.5) and the anchor bead will have to be welded on (refer to Section 2.10).

Fit the Locking Ring and Gland

Carefully clean the locking ring and gland, particularly at the points indicated in Fig. 2.7.2. 2.4.2. Place the gland and ring on the spigot of the pipe to be jointed, behind the welded bead. The slope of the outer face of the locking ring needs to correspond to the slope of the inner face of the gland ring, i.e. thick end towards the welded bead (see Fig. 2.7.3). 2.4.3).

Fig. 2.4.7

The slope of the rubber connecting pieces should face the same way as that of the locking ring segments (see Fig. 2.4.6). 2.7.6 Place a connecting piece in one end of the segment by inserting it into the notch in the plane face of the ring. Using a suitable drift, insert a pin, previously coated with jointing lubricant. Orientate the pin so that the sloping face corresponds with that in the elastomer lining then hammer it home (see Fig. 2.4.7). 2.7.7 The remaining links are assembled in the same way to form a complete ring. The number of links required for each diameter are: 7 for DN800 8 for DN900 9 for DN1000 11 for DN1200

Jointing mark drawn on spigot

Using the methods described in Section 2.2, insert the spigot, checking the alignment of the assembled components until the jointing mark on the spigot is in line with the 2.7.10 socket face (see Fig. 2.4.10). Do not go beyond this point, to avoid the pipe making contact with the lining and to allow the possibility of joint deflection. Bring the locking ring into contact with the welded bead. Check that it fits snugly on the pipe spigot and against the weld bead (see Fig. 2.4.11). 2.7.11

Fig. 2.7.11 Fig. 2.4.11

Locking ring

Place the gland in contact with the ring and centre it. Clean, lubricate and insert the bolts and screw on the nuts by hand until they contact the gland (see Fig. 2.7.12 2.4.12). Tighten the nuts until there is gland-socket face contact (this is when there is a rapid increase in tightening torque). The nuts must be tightened diametrically opposite one another to 50Nm. If lifting tackle is used it must not be removed until the joint is completely assembled.

Fig. 2.4.12 Fig. 2.7.12

The pipes must be jointed in a straight line. After assembly, the joint can be deflected if required, within the permissible limits (see Table 2.4.2). 2.7.2 Note: Anchor joints, a certain of amount of axial withdrawal occurs as Note:With With Mechanical Rapid Ve joints, a certain amount axial withdrawal occurs as anchorage is anchorage is taken up. must be taken to the ensure that the pipe layout such that this taken up.

Where self-anchored mains are buried, the required backfill and embedment must be in place before pressure testing in order to minimise any movement caused by the pipeline 'snaking'. Where mains are not to be buried, all the necessary securing and strapping of the pipework appropriate to its final installation must also be carried out before pressure testing. The bolts and joint area of this system will require extra protection. The minimum protection should be petrolatum tape/mastic blanket and PE sleeving, or, if necessary, a protection system equal to the protection system applied to the pipes.

Locking Ring

2.8 PAMLOCK
PAMLOCK is the mechanical anchor system for water and sewer pipes DN1400-2000.

Equipment Needed
To joint the PAMLOCK pipes the following equipment will be required:1. Conformator (Fig. 2.8.1) 2. Segmented locking ring (Fig 2.8.1) 3. Wire rope, clips & turnbuckle (Fig. 2.8.2) 4. Conformator gauge (Fig. 2.8.6) 5. Hydraulic jack (Fig. 2.8.7) 6. Conformator clamp (Fig. 2.8.8) 2.8.5) 7. Conformator wedge (Fig. (Fig. 2.8.6) 2.8.8) 8. Shot reservoir and shot (Fig. 2.8.9) 9. Pneumatic vibrator and compressor (Fig. 2.8.9) Carefully clean the socket chambers. Pay particular attention to the gasket seat and the anchoring chamber. Clean the spigot of the pipe to be jointed and the gasket and locking ring. Fit the gasket into the first chamber (innermost) of the socket as per normal ductile iron pipe installation. Fit the conformator on the spigot of the pipe to be jointed and position behind, but clear of the welded bead with the lip towards the next socket and the gap at the top (see Fig. 2.8.1). Next fit the segmented locking ring behind the welded bead. The locking ring consists of several segments, joined together by rubber connecting pieces which are held in place by two pins. Measure and mark the insertion point (see Table 2.8.1). Table 2.8.1 Pamlock insertion point

Using a hammer, carefully position the conformator into the socket (see Fig. 2.8.5). Remove the wire rope and turnbuckle and use the gauge to check the correct depth of the conformator (see Fig. 2.8.6). Fit the conformator clamps and jack apart using the hydraulic jack (see Fig. 2.8.7). Use wedges to hold the conformator clamps in place (see Fig. 2.8.8) and lock using grub screw. Attach the shot reservoir to one of the conformator clamps and the pneumatic vibrator in the middle of the conformator clamps (see Fig. 2.8.9). The shot is used to fill the gap between the conformator lip and the inside of the socket face. Connect the vibrator to the compressor and fill the reservoir with shot. Switch the vibrator on and the shot will run down into the joint. The shot must be topped up when required. When no more shot is being used remove the reservoir from the conformator clamp and position it in the other conformator clamp and repeat the process for the other side. Careful examination of the gap between the socket face and conformator ring will reveal small holes that can be used for inserting a wire gauge to assess the level of the shot inside the joint. The conformator clamps stay in place on the joint after assembly.

2.9 Jointing Methods

Trench excavator method - DN60-2000 80
This is by far the most widely used system. Where the trench is being prepared by using a backhoe type excavator, this machine may also be used to push the spigot home. A timber header should be placed between the pipe and the backhoe bucket to prevent damage to the pipe (see Fig. 2.9.1). The operation should be carried out with great care to avoid the over insertion of the spigot. Fig. 2.9.1

80 Crowbar method - DN60-100

DN80 100 complete entry of of the spigot into the the socket maymay be be For joints DN 80and DN100 complete entry the spigot into socket achieved by pushing with a crowbar or suitable lever against a timber held against the face of the socket of the entering pipe (see Fig. 2.9.2).

Fork tool method - DN80-200

For joints DN80 to DN200 a fork type tool may be used for assembly. Enter the spigot into the socket until contact with the gasket is made. Place the fork over and behind the socket of the last pipe laid and attach the eye of the wire rope to the hook on the fork tool. Thread the plain end of the rope through the rope grip on the socket hook and place the hook into the socket of the pipe to be jointed. Take up the slack in the rope and pull on the fork tool to complete the joint (see Fig. 2.9.3). Reasonable force only should be used.

Method
Enter the spigot into the socket until contact with the gasket is made. Mount the socket frame immediately behind the socket of the installed pipe (see Fig. 2.9.5). Fig. 2.9.8 Secure with the chain (see Fig. 2.9.6). Place the spigot clamp loosely around the spigot with the lugs towards the socket face (see Fig. 2.9.7). Position the slots in the side links of the socket frame onto the lugs of the spigot clamp and tighten the clamp onto the pipe (see Fig. 2.9.8). Draw the spigot into the socket by turning the nuts on the lugs with the levers, taking care to exert an even pull on each side to prevent uneven entry (see Fig. 2.9.9). If jointing anchor gaskets, on completion of the joint, the levers should be pushed sharply in the opposite direction to check that anchorage is effective. On tape wrapped pipe it is often necessary to remove the wrapping at the spigot end in order to get the spigot clamp into position. Any damage to the coating or protection system must be repaired before reinstatement. Please refer to Section 1.4.

Jointing Tackle - DN450 -600

This jointing tackle was designed for jointing pipes and fittings using anchor gaskets but may be used for ordinary gaskets aswell. The equipment supplied by Saint-Gobain Pipelines shown Fig. 2.9.28. each DN there is a socket harness a spigot PAM UK isis shown in in Fig. 2.9.28. For For each DN there is a socket harness and aand spigot clamp. The bolt sets are common for these three sizes. In addition to the tackle supplied the following is required: 150Nm torque wrench, 30mm extension socket and 30mm AF spanner. Joint assembly is most efficient with two people, each with a wrench and spanner.

Fig. 2.9.29

Method
Locate the spigot in the socket and make sure that the pipes are in line. When jointing fittings, always ensure the socket face is square with the pipe axis. Assemble the spigot clamp around the spigot, with the bolt lug adjacent to the two clamping bolts at the top of the pipe. This is easier if the female end of the clasp is fed under the pipe first (see Fig. 2.9.29). Locate the two spigot clamp bolts (220mm in length) and loosely fit the nuts with washers (see Fig. 2.9.30). Remove the locking pin from the socket harness and locate the harness behind the socket with the locking pin housing away from the socket face. Replace the locking pin (see Fig. 2.9.31). Push the socket harness up onto the socket and locate the three threaded bars. Adjust position of spigot clamp to give full thread engagement with the nuts. The nuts are domed at one end for location in the chamfered bolt-holes. Clamp spigot clamp to spigot with a torque of 150 Nm. Check that the threaded bar bolt-holes are in line by making sure that the top threaded bar is square to the socket clamp and the spigot harness. To make the joint, tighten the domed nuts equally until the correct insertion is achieved. Check that the socket face remains square during tightening (see Fig. 2.9.32). Remove the socket harness and threaded bars. If jointing anchor gaskets, locate the two 180mm bolts in the spigot clamp tubes and tighten the bolts to engage the anchor teeth. Remove spigot clamp and repair any coating damage. Please refer to Section 1.4. Note: If the pipes are tape wrapped the spigot clamp can be further restrained by tightening the grub screws positioned at each bolt lug, after tightening the two spigot clamp bolts. Do not over tighten the grub screws. On completing the joint repair any coating damage (please refer to Section 1.4). Before using the spigot clamp again, unscrew the grub screws so that they are flush with the inside of the clamp ring. Keep bolt sets clean and well lubricated.

2.10 Anchor Bead Application

Fig. 2.10.1 When the mechanical anchoring system or Universal Rapid locked is used Ve jointjoint is used the the pipes are supplied with a factory applied welded bead. However, where the pipe is cut on site, the following procedure should be followed for on site bead welding. All site welding must be undertaken by a skilled welder. High nickel welding rods will be needed. The recommended welding rods are Gricast 31, Eutectic Xuper 2240 or equivalent. A copper guide ring will also be required which can be ordered through Saint-Gobain Pipelines. PAM UK. Carefully grind the area bead application overover a width of 25mm. The grinding must Carefully grind/linish the for area for bead application a width of 25mm. The grinding/linishing must not affect the pipe thickness 2.10.1). not affect the pipe thickness (see(see Fig. Fig. 2.10.1). Fig. 2.10.2

Position and clamp the copper ring behind the weld position, paying attention to dimension a L in Table 2.10.1. The ring must fit the pipe snugly. Tap it lightly with a hammer if necessary to obtain a good fit (see Fig. 2.10.2). Deposit the weld bead against the copper ring, to give a flat face vertical to the pipe surface. The bead must be applied in a single pass by an experienced welder using 3.2mm diameter electrodes. Work preferably between positions A and B (see Fig. 2.10.3). Keep to this working area by rotating the pipe. Table 2.10.1: Key dimensions of weld bead

Epoxy Peinture

It is important to keep to the b and c bead dimensions given in Table 2.10.1. Remove the copper ring and clean the weld bead using a wire brush. A brush can then be used to apply a solvent based epoxy (see Fig. 2.10.4) on the bead as well as on the chamfer (if pipe has been cut). For details of radius and chamfer see Section 1.5.3. It is essential that any protection system is repaired, see Section 1.4 for details.

Ensure that the faces of the flanges are flat, clean and free from dirt or particles of foreign matter. Use only undamaged rust free bolts, nuts and washers. Lubricate the bolt threads and all mating surfaces of nuts, washers and flanges using a suitable lubricant (when used on pipes intended for use with potable water, the lubricant should have WRc approval. For use on pipes intended for use with sewage and waste water, an automotive oil or grease will be satisfactory). Location bolts may be inserted in the first four positions as shown in Fig. 2.11.1. Use only 3mm thick, 80 IRHD hardness synthetic rubber gaskets to EN681-1 (20) and and with dimensions to suit the flange rating. Position the gasket on the location bolts. Offer the adjoining flange to bolts. Lightly tighten the four location bolts in the order as shown in Fig. 2.11.1 to secure the adjoining flange. Insert the remaining bolts and, using a torque wrench, tighten in the correct sequence (see Fig. 2.11.1). Where flanges have more bolts than shown follow the principle of tightening diametrically opposite bolts. Tighten gradually and ensure that a sufficient number of circuits are undertaken to achieve the specified bolt torque (see Table 2.11.1). Because of potential gasket creep, leave for one hour, check and, if necessary, retighten bolts. Repeat the checks until the bolts will not tighten any more.

For sizes having 12 bolts or more it is recommended that two jointers work simultaneously on diametrically opposite bolts. Each jointer tightens the first nut in the first quadrant, then the first nut in the second quadrant, returns to the second nut in the first quadrant and so on (see Fig. 2.11.2).

Bolting torque
Table 2.11.1 2.5.1 indicates the approximate bolting torque required to seal flanged joints against internal pressure. Where the installation is such that high bending moments Technical Sales Department, Tel 0115 could be induced at these joints, please contact consult our Technical Sales Department. 930 0700. The relationship between applied torque and the actual load imparted by the bolts is not precisely predictable, therefore the values given in the charts are an approximate guide.

Note: The need to seal a flanged joint at a pressure greater than the flange PN rating is only for site hydrostatic test purposes. Flanged joints should not be operated at these higher values. On flanged joints using elastomeric gaskets some relaxation of the gasket will be experienced and it should be ascertained that the bolting torque required to effect a seal at the appropriate pressure, as shown in the charts, are effective at the time of pressure testing. Bolt torques do not have to be restricted to those applicable for a specific test pressure and higher torque can be applied up to the maximum rated test pressure of the appropriate flange. On certain sizes of concentric tapers the bolt hole patterns differ at either end. In these cases there is a raised triangle between two bolt holes. This mark should be at the top of the taper when fitted. please contact our Technical Sales Department, Tel Please 0115 930 0700.

2.13 Dismantling Joints

When dismantling a joint it is important to avoid dislodging other joints further along the pipeline. Joints in the middle of a pipeline will require cutting out and couplings will be required to make the pipeline complete. Joints that are at the end of pipelines can be dismantled as follows. Rapid joints can usually be separated by using lifting equipment appropriate to the size of the pipe. Secure a webbing sling, of suitable size and strength, around the pipe near the end furthest from the joint to be dismantled. This is then attached to the lifting equipment and the pipe is raised and lowered, within the specific limitations, whilst at the same time exerting a slight pulling force, so that the spigot is walked out of the socket. If the pipes adjacent to the one being disjointed are in an uncovered situation (i.e. not backfilled), the next 2 joints along must be carefully checked to ensure that they are not disturbed unduly by the operation.

Dismantling joints with anchor gaskets and the Universal Rapid Vi Anchor joint joint
If the joint has been pressurised, use the jointing tackle to pull the joint together, as previously described. This will help to partially release the anchor teeth from the pipe spigot. Insert an extractor shim in the carrying anvil and smear lubricant over the leading edge (see Table 2.13.1 for tackle requirements).

Note: Safety glasses must be worn Commencing at the bottom of the joint, drive the shim under the gasket by striking the anvil (see Fig. 2.13.1). Prise the anvil off the shim (see Fig. 2.13.2). Continue driving shims under the gasket around the whole circumference of the joint keeping the gaps between the shims to a minimum. The final shim inserted will overlap the shims on either side.

Fig. 2.13.2 2.13.1 Attach the socket frame and spigot clamp, as described in jointing section 2.9, but with the lugs on the nut assemblies pointing away from the socket face. Draw the spigot out of the socket by turning the nut assemblies with the levers, taking care to exert an even pull on each side (see Fig. 2.13.3). After dismantling the joint, do not re-use the gasket. If the pipes are to be re-used and have been pressurised ensure the spigot is suitable for re-use. A thorough inspection should be made of the spigot jointing area and all sharp edges removed.

Dismantling joints with the Universal Rapid Ve locked joint joint

Fig. 2.13.3 Push the spigot into the bottom of the socket to free the locking ring. Open the locking ring by inserting 5 wedges between the pipe barrel and the ring (see Fig. 2.13.4). This enables the weld bead to slide under the locking ring. The spigot can then be pulled from the socket.

Fig. 3.1.1

Before carrying out a hydrostatic test the following should be checked:

All anchorage is in position and the section of the pipeline to be tested is properly blanked off, for example by one of the methods illustrated in Fig. 3.1.1. All concrete should have developed adequate strength before testing begins. All air is released from the pipeline. Where joints are left uncovered during the test, ensure that sufficient backfill has been placed over the barrels of the pipes to prevent movement at exposed joints. Where unrestrained closure pieces are used, adequate temporary restraint should be put in place to prevent movement at exposed joints.

Flange Spigot and Blank Flange

Flange Socket and Blank Flange

NOTE. It may often be economical to provide a concrete anchor block which has subsequently to be demolished, rather than risk movement of temporary stop ends during testing. Hydraulic jacks may be inserted between temporary anchors and stop ends to take up any horizontal movement of the temporary anchors. If self-anchored joints are to be used, it is essential that the correct length of anchorage is calculated to determine the required number of anchored joints.

Where restrained closure pieces are used (i.e. with self anchored joints) care must be taken to ensure that all personnel are kept a safe distance away from the section under test. Sufficient time is allowed, after the pipeline has been filled, for absorption of water into cement mortar linings. At least 24 hours should be allowed.

Test Procedure
The completed pipeline may be tested either in one length or in sections. Fill the pipeline with clean water (semi treated water can be used for sewage pipelines), ensuring that all air is removed, pressurise to working pressure and leave until stable conditions are achieved. Steadily increase pressure until the test pressure is reached at the lowest point of the section being tested. If pressure measurements are not made at the lowest point of the section, an allowance should be made for the static head between the lowest point and the point of measurement to ensure that the maximum permissible pressure is not exceeded at the lowest point. Maintain pressure for one hour, by pumping if necessary. Disconnect pump for one hour. Note the pressure and restore to the test pressure by pumping. Stop pumping on reaching the test pressure and draw off water until the pressure equals the noted value. If using anchor gaskets with closure pieces to test a section of pipeline, after dismantling following testing, ensure that the gasket is disposed of and not reused.

Drilling and tapping machines

Fitting service connections to ductile iron pipes is carried out using purpose-designed drilling and tapping machines. There are two basic types of machine; those for making connections to dead (non-pressurised) mains and those for making connections to live (pressurised) mains. It is good practice to protect the pipe coatings and sleeving from being damaged.

Service connections
Service connections in common use on ductile iron water mains are of two types; the `Conventional' type which depends on the screw thread on the inlet for sealing and anchorage onto the pipe and the `External-seal' type which incorporates separate sealing components, the screw thread being used primarily for anchorage.

Fig. 3.3.1

Conventional type connections

Fig. 1.1.17

The inlets of Conventional type connections have taper screw threads. The angle of taper and type of screw threads may vary on the connections of different manufacturers. When fully tightened, the threaded inlet of the connection provides both the anchorage and a leak-tight seal (see Fig. 3.3.1). This type of connection is obtainable in a number of materials in the form of tees or swivel balance ferrules and the outlet may have screwed compression or flexible joints. Fig. 3.3.1 Fig. 3.3.2

External seal type connections

The thread on the inlet of `External-seal' type connections is used primarily for anchoring and both parallel and taper screw threads are used. The pressure seal is achieved by compressing a gasket of elastomeric material onto the pipe body and the inlet stem of the connection (see Fig. 3.3.2). The required compressive load is applied by tightening a backing nut onto a suitable shaped saddle. In common with the `Conventional' type, `External' type connections are available in a number of materials in the form of tees or swivel balance ferrules and the outlet may have screwed, compression or flexible joints.

Service connections to pipes with factory-applied wrapping

The following tasks should be performed to make the service connections to pipes with factory applied wrapping:

Prior to making the service connection, place the saddle of the tapping machine on the pipe in the correct position. Mark around the saddle. Remove the saddle and carefully cut away the wrap in the area marked. Proceed with the tapping in the normal way. Once the connection is made, complete the protection by the application of waterproof tape over all exposed metal surfaces, including the ferrule.
