While reviewing this standard on the basis ofthe experience gained during these years following modifications have been made: 8) Amendment No. 1 has been incorporated: ) Thicknesses have been modified in Tables 3 4,5 and pipes of additional nominal bores have been added. in Tables 4 and 5; «¢) Clause 2 for ‘References’ has been modified to be inline with the details as are tobe given in various standards as decided by the Bureau; 6) Maximum sulphur and phosphorus modified in §.2 for chemical composition to align with the require. ‘ment of IS 10748 : 1995 “Hot rolled steel strips for welded tubes and pipes (frst revision)’: and ©) Provisions of hydrostatic test have been modified. For the purpose of deciding whether a particular requirement of this standard is complied with, the final value, observed or calculated, expressing the result of a test or analysis, shall be rounded off in accordance with 1S 2: 1960 “Rules for rounding off numerical values (revised). The number of significant places retained in the rounded off value should be the same as that ofthe specified value inthis standard. * | | Indian Standard STEEL TUBES USED FOR WATER WELLS — SPECIFICATION ( Third Revision ) 1 SCOPE L.A This standard covers the requirements for steel tubes used for water wells, such as, casing, drive pipe and housing; having the following types of joints: 48) Screwed and socketed butt joints, )_ Screwed flush butt joint, and ©) Plain bevelled end pipes for butt welded joints. 2 REFERENCES 24 The Indian Standards listed below contain through reference in this text, constitute provisions of this standard.

For the purpose of this standard, the following definitions in addition to those given in IS 1956 (Pact 8) shall apply. 3.2 Length of Tubes Effective length (of tube), which in the case of a socketed tube is the overall length without sockets and inthe case of flush but joint tube is the overall length less the length of screwing on one end. In the case of tubes for butt welded joints, iti the overall length 33 Lot Al the tubes of same type, grade, dimensions and ‘preferably belonging tothe samebatch of manufacture shall be grouped together to constitu a lot 34 Casing Pipe Casing pipe is a pipe which is used to protect the wells and the boreholes from collapsing (see Fig. 1). 3.5 Housing Pipe : Hiousing pipe i the upper portion of the case section of the well and serves as a housing forthe pumping ‘equipment and is a vertical conduit through which water flows from the aquifer to the pump. It is water-tight and extends downwards from ground surface oa safe depth below the anticipated pumping wate level (see Fig 1. 3.6 Drive Pipe Drive pipe is also.type of casing made up of seamless or welded mild steel pipes designed to withstand the
