This standard covers the fabrication and testing of nominal 1-in.
through 144-in. (25-mm through 3,600-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 plastic-mortar pipe (RPMP) are
fiberglass pipes. Epoxy-resin and polyester-resin systems are
covered, 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. Pressures classes covered are 50,
100, 150, 200, and 250 psig (345, 689, 1,034, 1,379, and 1,724 kPa).
Stiffness classes covered are 9, 18, 36, and 72 psi (62, 124, 248, and
496 kPa). This standard may be used to the extent applicable for other
diameters, pressure classes, and stiffness classes. The main purpose
of this standard is to provide the minimum requirements for fiberglass
pressure pipe, including design, fabrication, and testing requirements.
The major revisions in this edition of ANSI/AWWA C950-95 include the
following: tables 1,3,4,7, and 8 through 13 were metricized; the format
has been changed to AWWA standard style; the acceptance clause
(Sec. I.C) and the definitions of parties (Sec. 3) have been revised to
approved wording; section 4.9, Joint Types and Requirements, was
revised; and, the information in Appendixes A through D on design,
testing, installation, shipping, handling, and storage has been removed
from the standard and included in AWWA Manual M45, Fiberglass
Pipe Design.
