This standard specifies the requirements for pipes, fittings and the system of polyethylene (PE) solid-wall piping systems in the field of soil and waste discharge - inside buildings (marked with "B") and - for both inside buildings and buried in ground within the building structure (marked with "BD"). It also specifies the test parameters for the test methods referred to in this standard.
