DESIGN
Structural Design
Under general gravity drainage
and sewer pipe laying conditions,
detailed calculations predicting pipe
performance are not necessary.
Following an extensive study of
installed pipe performance, The
European Plastic Pipe and Fitting
Association (TEPPFA) concluded
that final deflection of pipes was
controlled by the settlement of
the soil after installation. Where
installation was controlled, or
self-compacting granular material
were used, pipe deflections were
consistently low regardless of
installation depth and traffic or other
loads.

Hydraulic Design
StormPRO® and SewerPRO® pipes
are normally sized to accommodate
maximum design discharge when
flowing full. The discharge rates in
Tables 5 through 9 on Pages 19 to
23 for StormPRO® and SewerPRO®
pipes flowing full are based on the
Colebrook-White formula which is
recognised by engineers throughout
the world as the most accurate basis
for hydraulic design over a wide
range of flow conditions.
Where:
V = Velocity (m/s)
H/L = Pipe Gradient, i.e. friction head loss / pipe length (m/m)
Di = Internal Diameter (m)
k = Colebrook-White roughness coefficient (m)
= kinematic viscosity of water (m2/s)
v
1 x 10-6 m2/s for water at 20oC
g = acceleration due to gravity (9.8m/s2)

Jointing Instructions
The following procedure is recommended when jointing StormPRO® and
SewerPRO® rubber ring jointed pipes:
1. Clean the pipe socket and spigot end, making sure both
are free of any dirt and grit. Any foreign matter trapped
in the joint will compromise joint performance and
leak-tightness of the system.
HINT: To further minimize the risk of introducing grit from the embedment
material into the joint, a small piece of rubber mat, poly tarp or equivalent
can be temporarily placed under the socket/spigot during joint assembly.
8. Push home the pipe until the spigot end comes into
contact with the inner wall of the socket.
NOTE: The jointing force required increases with the nominal diameter of the
pipe. A leverage tool such as a crowbar is generally sufficient for StormPRO®
and SewerPRO® pipes up to 375mm nominal diameter. For larger sizes,
mechanical assistance is required. Where applying a jointing force is not
practical, consideration should be given to the use of come-along or winch
30

Concrete Encasement
Where concrete encasement
is required, StormPRO® and
SewerPRO® pipes should be laid to
the correct alignment and grade,
supported on hessian bags filled with
stabilised sand or on concrete blocks
or cradles. The concrete surround
should be placed so as to provide
uniform and continuous support
around the entire circumference of
the pipe.
