Abstract

Proposes methods for handling, storage, installation, testing and commissioning of polyvinyl chloride (PVC) pipelines, above or below ground, for pressure and non-pressure applications conveying liquids.

Scope

This Standard sets out methods for handling, storage, installation, testing and commissioning of polyvinyl chloride (PVC) pipelines, above- or below-ground, for pressure and non-pressure applications conveying liquids.
PVC materials covered are -
(a) PVC-U (unplasticized polyvinyl chloride);
(b) PVC-M (modified polyvinyl chloride);
(c) PVC-O (oriented polyvinyl chloride); and
(d) PVC-C (chlorinated polyvinyl chloride).
This Standard applies to PVC pipelines that carry liquids under either pressure or gravity flow situations and the components of which comply with, but are not limited to, the following:
(a) AS/NZS 1254 - Stormwater.
(b) AS/NZS 1260 - Drain, waste and vent.
(c) AS 1273 - Rainwater downpipes.
(d) AS/NZS 1477 - PVC-U pressure applications.
(e) AS 4441(Int) - PVC-O pressure applications;
(f) AS/NZS 4765 - PVC-M pressure applications.
(g) ASTM F441 - PVC-C Schedules 40 and 80.
