This standard describes the fabrication and the testing of nominal 1-in. through 156-in.(25-mm through 4,000-mm)fiberglass pipe and joining systems for use in both aboveground and belowground water systems. Service and distribution piping systems and transmission piping systems are included.
Both glass-fiber-reinforced thermosetting-resin pipe(RTRP) and glass-fiber-reinforced polymer mortar pipe(RPMP) are fiberglass pipes. Epoxy-resin and polyester-resin systems are described, and commercial-grade E-type glass is specified as the glass-fiber reinforcement material in the pipe wall. Liner materials incorporated include thermosetting or thermoplastic resin, reinforced or unreinforced, with or without fillers. Pressure classes described are 50,100,150,200,250,300,350,400,and 450 psig (345,689,1,034,1,379,1,724,2,069,2,414,2,759, and 496 kPa). This standard may be used to the extent applicable for other diameters, pressure classes, and stiffness classes. For information on design, hydraulics, and installation, refer to AWWA Manual M45, Fiberglass Pipe Design.
