OVERVIEWIPEX Inc. is one of the largest manufacturers of plastic piping systems in North America. IPEX manufactures piping systemsfor many different applications, including sewer and water supply, electrical and telecommunications systems, plumbing,industrial as well as radiant heating systems.This design manual covers the technical aspects of designing pressure pipe systems with PVC pipe. More specifically,municipal potable water systems, as well as irrigation and sewer force main systems are described.The manual is organized into three sections:Section 1 deals with specific products and includes detailed information on applications, dimensions and applicablestandards for each system.Section 2 deals with general design issues associated with PVC systems such as hydraulics, cyclic design and other topicsthat are applicable to all the products described in the manual.Section 3 consists of design examples that apply the concepts from the first two sections.This manual is designed for Engineers, Technologists and other municipal infrastructure professionals who require a deeperunderstanding of municipal piping systems than can be gleaned from the more general overview literature available from IPEX.Pressure Piping Systems Design1

SECTION ONE: PRODUCT INFORMATIONINTRODUCTIONIPEX offers a number of different pressure piping systems that are used for various applications. While they are all plasticsystems, they vary in outside diameter configurations and in available pressure ratings.The products offered are:CycleTough Piping Systems – Iron Pipe Size outside diameter (IPSOD) pipe and fittingsTerraBrute Pipe – CIOD pipe modified for use with trenchless installation methods such as directional drilling or pipe burstingQ-Line Water Service Tubing – 3/4" and 1" composite pipe designed for use as a water service to connect houses to main lines.SUMMARYOFPRESSURE PIPEAND FITTINGSTESTINGAll IPEX pressure pipes and fittings are manufactured to standards from various recognized organizations such as the AWWA,CSA, ASTM and others. As a result, all pressure pipe products undergo a variety of testing and quality procedures.Blue Brute, IPEX Centurion, and TerraBrute Piping SystemsThese piping systems are manufactured under various AWWA standards, including AWWA C900 (Blue Brute and TerraBrute),and AWWA C905 (IPEX Centurion). Fittings are manufactured under the C900, C905 and C907 standards.Each length of Blue Brute, IPEX Centurion and TerraBrute pipe is hydrostatically tested in order to verify the pressurecapabilities of each pipe as dictated by AWWA C900 and C905. In addition, burst tests are carried out regularly to verify theintegrity of the pipe and joint system. It should be remembered that the hydrostatic test is done using the pipe’s own gasket,which means that both the pipe and the joining system are being checked. AWWA standards also require a number of othertests, including impact tests at room temperature.TerraBrute pipe does not strictly comply with AWWA C900/905 standards because of the dimensional change imposed by thegrooving procedure, however it is tested using the same procedures as conventional Blue Brute and IPEX Centurion. Thehydrostatic proof test is carried out on each length of TerraBrute to the same pressures and durations as for standard BlueBrute or IPEX Centurion.In addition to AWWA requirements, CSA certification requires very stringent testing and QA/QC procedures. For example, theCSA B137.3 standard dictates that a vacuum test be performed on samples of pipe joints to verify that they can withstand avacuum pressure of -10.8 psi. (Further tests have been performed by IPEX that simulate full vacuum pressures combined withexternal groundwater pressure of over 100 psi with no leakage).CSA certification also requires impact testing to carried out at 0ºC (32ºF), which is a much tougher test compared to the roomtemperature testing required by the AWWA. This is an example of how one standard can have significantly tougher testingrequirements than anotherIn addition to the pressure and impact testing, the material itself is tested by using acetone immersion tests and heatreversion tests. Both tests are used to check that the proper degree of fusion has occurred during the extrusion process.The dimensional characteristics of each pipe and fitting are checked constantly during the extrusion and molding processes,and samples are taken for detailed dimensional analysis during each extrusion or molding run.CycleTough (IPSOD) PipeCycletough pipe undergoes testing identical to that of IPEX Centurion pipe with the exception of the hydrostatic proof test ofeach length of pipe. This does not mean that the pipe is of any lesser quality than Blue Brute or IPEX Centurion pipe – it onlymeans that it is manufactured under a different standard (ASTM D2241) that does not require the hydrostatic proof test.In addition to performance and dimensional checks, National Sanitation Foundation (NSF) requirements mean that allproducts are thoroughly tested to ensure they have no effect on potable water.To summarize – There are many standards governing the manufacture and design of IPEX pressure pipes and fittings. IPEXalso has internal testing standards that are often well in excess of published requirements to ensure acceptable performanceon the jobsite.Pressure Piping Systems Design3PRODUCT INFORMATIONBlue Brute and IPEX Centurion Piping Systems – Cast iron outside diameter (CIOD) pipe and fittings
PRODUCT INFORMATIONBLUE BRUTE PIPING SYSTEMSBlue Brute is one of the most well known names in municipalwater supply, as it has built up an enviable reputation forperformance and reliability over the years. Blue Brute pipeand fittings eliminate the threat of corrosion, while providingreliable long-term service. While Blue Brute pipe iscompatible with iron fittings, IPEX recommends the use ofBlue Brute fittings as they are made to match the pipe, andeliminate the “Achilles heel” of many systems – corrodingiron fittings.It is advisable to specify pipe and fittings from the samemanufacturer in order to ensure a completely matchedsystem. For example, many competing PVC injection moldedfittings are manufactured withPVC compound with a lowerhydrostatic design basis thatthe pipe. Only by specifyingBlue Brute fittings can youensure that the fittings have thesame 4000 psi long termstrength as the pipe itself.Applications:Municipal water distribution systems and fire lines.Irrigation, sewage forcemains, industrial lines.4Pressure Piping Systems DesignSizes larger than 8 inches are fabricated and dimensions are available on request.

IPEX CENTURION PIPING SYSTEMSCONT’DSurge Pressures in IPEX CenturionIPEX Centurion can withstand extremely high short termpressures, in addition to lower levels of long-term pressure.As a result, the AWWA M23 Manual includes both long termpressure ratings (LTR) and short term ratings (STR).Transient pressures in pipelines occur as a result of the fluidvelocity changing over a relatively short time. The method forapproximating a surge pressure is described in section 2,however it should be noted that for most large diameterpipelines, a formal transient analysis should be carried out bya qualified person in order to fully understand the effects oftransients in any given system. The method shown in section2 is certainly appropriate for initial design purposes however.SDRShort Term RatingSTR* (2.5:1 S.F.)

PRODUCT INFORMATIONIPEX CENTURION PIPING SYSTEMSCONT’DIPEX Centurion for Gravity ApplicationsStandards:With its pressure rated joints and non-corroding construction,IPEX Centurion- is a natural choice for gravity flow lines.When designing any flexible conduit application, the ringdeflection should be calculated for the applicable loadingconditions. The table below shows the ring deflections for avariety of different SDR configurations based on depth ofbury and H20 loading. For more information on how tocalculate ring deflections on PVC pipe, please refer to theIPEX Sewer Design Manual.AWWA C905, CSA B137.3, NQ 3624-250, NSF-61Factory Mutual:SDR18 is FM approved to 500mm diameter (20")Underwriter’s Laboratories 1218:SDR18 is listed to 600mm diameter (24")SDR25 is listed to 750mm diameter (30")1.
