Plastics piping systems for non-pressure underground drainage and sewerage — Unplasticized poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC-U) — Part 1: Specifications for pipes, fittings and the systems

This document specifies the requirements for unplasticized poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC-U) solid wall pipes with smooth internal and external surfaces, extruded from the same formulation throughout the wall, fittings and piping systems intended to be used for non-pressure underground drainage and sewerage under the following conditions:

a)    buried in ground outside the building structure (application area code "U"); and

b)    both buried in ground, within the building structure and outside the building (application area code "UD").

NOTE        The intended use is reflected in the marking of products by "U" or "UD".

It also specifies the test parameters for the test methods referred to in this document. This document covers a range of nominal sizes, a range of pipes and fittings series and a range of stiffness classes and gives recommendations concerning colours.

NOTE        It is the responsibility of the purchaser or specifier to make the appropriate selection from these aspects, taking into account their particular requirements and any relevant national regulations and installation practices or codes.

It is applicable to PVC-U pipes and fittings, their joints and to joints with components of other plastics and non-plastics materials intended for buried piping systems for non-pressure underground drainage and sewerage.

This document gives guidance for the assessment of conformity of formulations, products and assemblies in accordance with the applicable part(s) of MS 979 intended to be included in the manufacturer’s quality plan as part of the quality management system and for the establishment of certification procedures.

It is recommended that the quality management system to conform to or is no less stringent than the relevant requirements to MS ISO 9001.

NOTE 1     If certification is involved, the certification body is preferably compliant with either MS ISO/IEC 17065 or MS ISO/IEC 17021-series, as applicable.

NOTE 2     A basic test matrix is given in Annex A.

In conjunction with other parts of MS 979 (see Foreword), this document is applicable to plastic piping systems made of unplasticized poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC-U) for non-pressure underground drainage and sewerage intended to be used under the following conditions:

1. buried in ground outside the building structure (application area code "U"), and
2. both buried in ground, within the building structure and outside the building structure (application area code "UD").

NOTE   It is the responsibility of the purchaser or specifier to make the appropriate selections from these aspects, taking into account their particular requirements and any relevant national guidance or regulations and installation practices or codes.

Non-destructive testing —
Qualification and certification of personnel
for NDT in civil engineering (NDT-CE)

This document specifies the requirements for the qualification and certification of personnel who perform non-destructive testing in the civil engineering (NDT-CE) sector focusing on concrete structures using the following methods. Within the context of NDT-CE, all listed below are referred to as NDT-CE methods:

a)         acoustic emission testing;

b)         carbonation test;

c)         chloride test;

d)         computed tomography;

e)         cover meter;

f)          dynamic tests;

g)         flat jack test;

h)         ground penetrating radar;

i)          impact echo;

j)          leak testing;

k)         parallel seismic test;

l)          penetration resistance test;

m)        potential mapping;

n)         pull off test;

o)         pull out test;

p)         radiographic testing;

q)         rebound hammer;

r)          resistivity measurement;

s)         strain gauge testing;

t)          thermographic testing;

u)         ultrasonic pulse echo;

v)         ultrasonic pulse velocity; and

w)        visual testing.

The system specified in this document is also applicable to other NDT-CE methods, provided a comprehensive scheme of certification exists. Additionally, the NDT-CE method must be covered by international, regional, or national standards, or it must be demonstrated to be effective to the satisfaction of the certification body.

NOTE 1 This document specifies requirements for third-party conformity assessment schemes, which involve independent organizations organisations evaluating and certifying the qualifications of personnel in NDT-CE. These requirements do not directly apply to conformity assessments conducted by second parties (such as clients evaluating suppliers) or first parties (such as self-assessments by the organisation). However, relevant parts of this document can be referenced or utilized in such arrangements to ensure a level of consistency and reliability in the qualification and certification process.
