    Covers installation and jointing techniques for above and below ground of pipes for pressure applications, SWV, sewer and drain, and as liners. Precautions covering selection, use, handling, transport and storage are given, and the resistance of polyethylene to a wide range of chemicals is tabulated.

    Scope - (Show below) - (Hide below)

    This standard sets out the recommended method of installing polyethylene (hereinafter referred to as PE) pipe-lines, above or below ground, for both pressure and non-pressure applications.NOTE: Where PE pipelines are to be installed underground the safe installation depths are calculated by reference to AS CA68.
