Abstract
This specification covers acrylonitrile-butadienestyrene (ABS) sewer pipe, produced by single extrusion or simultaneous multiple coextrusion. This specification also covers fittings. The requirements of this specification are intended to provide pipe and fittings suitable for nonpressure drainage of sewage, surface water, and certain other liquid wastes, in applications outside the building limits. Pipe produced by simultaneous multiple coextrusion shall be classified as “Coex.” Flattening, impact resistance, joint tightness, and pipe stiffness tests shall be performed to conform with specified requirements.
Scope
1.1 This specification covers acrylonitrile-butadienestyrene (ABS) sewer pipe, produced by single extrusion or simultaneous multiple coextrusion. This specification also covers fittings. Included are requirements and test methods for materials, dimensions, workmanship, chemical resistance, water resistance, and joint tightness. A form of marking to indicate compliance with this specification is also included.
1.2 The text of this specification references notes, footnotes, and appendixes which provide explanatory material. These notes and footnotes (excluding those in tables and figures) shall not be considered as requirements of the specification.
