Plastics piping systems - Joints for glass-reinforced thermosetting plastics (GRP) pipes and fittings - Test methods for leaktightness and resistance to damage of flexible and reduced-articulation joints

Scope

This standard specifies test methods for flexible and reduced articulation spigot and socket joints, including double-socket joints, with elastomeric sealing elements for above ground and buried glass-reinforced thermosetting plastics (GRP) pipeline applications. It covers methods of test for the leaktightness and resistance to damage of the joint only, when subject to specified combinations of longitudinal extension (draw), angular movement (angular deflection), vertical compression (misalignment) and internal pressure.
