Sets out design practice for vertical deflections up to recommended safe design limit of 5 percent of OD, for plastics pipes laid underground, and includes methods for calculating loads, safe bedding depths and deflections under a range of laying conditions. Formulas for calculation of vertical loads due to fill material, and installation conditions and design constants, are described and illustrated in appendices.

This standard sets out design practice for calculating loads, safe bedding depths, and vertical deflections for plastics pipes laid under a number of specified standard underground installation conditions. It applies to pipes with outside diameter 75 mm and above and vertical deflection not greater than 5 percent of the outside diameter. For pipe sizes below this, the safe burial calculated by this standard for the 75 mm outside diameter pipe size may be used. This standard applies to the use of smooth circular pipes made from UPVC or polyethylene. It can also apply to pipes of other plastics materials by the substitution of appropriate values in Tables 1, 2, 3, 5, and 6 for the particular pipe material.
