WITHDRAWN--C401-03: AWWA Standard for the Selection of Asbestos-Cement Pressure Pipe, 4 In. Through 16 In. (100 mm Through 400 mm), for Water Distribution Systems (PDF)
SKU: STC_0059177-PDF
This standard has been prepared so that the user may quickly determine the correct pressure classification of asbestos-cement pressure pipe to use under various combinations of internal pressure (working and surge) and external load (earth and superimposed live loads) in water distribution systems. Combined loading curves depicting the relationship between internal pressure and external load capabilities are included to expedite the selection of pipe class, which is defined in ANSI/AWWA C400.
Description
This standard also presents criteria for determining the type of pipe to be used under various soil and water conditions. Appendix A contains a friction loss of head chart based on the Hazen-Williams formula. Appendix B is a discussion of entrapped air.
