10. EXPANSION: PLASTIC PIPE WILL EXPAND APPROXIMATELY SIX IN.
(6") PER THOUSAND FT. (1000') BETWEEN DAY AND NIGHT
TEMPERATURES IN HOT CLIMATE. THEREFORE, PIPE SHALL BE
SNAKED FROM SIDE TO SIDE OF TRENCH BOTTOM TO ALLOW
FOR EXPANSION AND CONTRACTION.
I

RECOMMENDED BY THE MANUFACTURER AND CONFORMING TO
ASTM D-2564. FOR UVR-P.V.C. SOLVENT CEMENT SHALL BE
BROWNLINE BOND -TITS CEMENT (CONFORMING TO THE
REQUIREMENTS OF ASTM D-2564) APPLY WITH AN APPROVED
PRIMER PRIOR TO APPLICATION OF: CEMENT. ALL PIPE AND
FITTINGS SHALL BE THOROUGHLY CLEANED OF DIRT, DUST AND
MOISTURE BEFORE APPLYING SOLVENT. THE CONTRACTOR
WILL MAKE SOLVENT WELD JOINTS.WITH NON -SYNTHETIC
BRISTLE BRUSH IN THE FOLLOWING SEQUENCE:
A. APPLY A LIBERAL, EVEN COAT OF,SOLVENT TO THE
INSIDE OF THE FITTING. I
B. THEN APPLY A LIBERAL, EVEN COAT OF SOLVENT TO THE
OUTSIDE OF THE PIPE, MAKING SURE THAT THE COATED
AREA IS EQUAL TO THE DEPTH OF THE FITTING SOCKET.
C. INSERT THE PIPE QUICKLY INTO THE FITTING AND TURN
THE PIPE APPROXIMATELY 1/4 TURN TO DISTRIBUTE THE
SOLVENT AND REMOVE AIR BUBBLES. HOLD THE JOINT
FOR APPROXIMATELY 15 SECONDS SO THE FITTING DOES
NOT PUSH OFF THE PIPE.
D. USE A CLEAN RAG AND WIPE OFF ALL EXCESS SOLVENT
TO PREVENT WEAKENING THE JOINT.

PIPE IS NOT TWISTED, DISTURBING THE LAST
COMPLETED JOINT.
F. ALLOW AT LEAST 15 MINUTES SET UP TIME FOR EACH.
I
16. PRESSURE LINE TESTING: ALL TESTS ON PRESSURE LINES
SHALL BE COMPLETE PRIOR TO BACKFILLING; HOWEVER,
SUFFICIENT BACKFILL MATERIAL MAY BE PLACED IN TRENCHES
BETWEEN FITTINGS TO ENSURE THE STABILITY OF THE LINE
PRESSURE. IN ALL CASES, FITTINGS AND COUPLINGS MUST BE
OPEN TO VISUAL INSPECTION FOR THE FULL PERIOD OF THE
TEST. NO TESTING SHALL BE DONE UNTIL THE LAST SOLVENT
WELDED JOINT HAS HAD TWELVE (12) HOURS TO SET AND
CURE. PRESSURE LINES SHALL BE TESTED UNDER 150 P.S.I.
WORKING PRESSURE FOR A PERIOD OF FOUR (4) HOURS AND
PROVEN TIGHT. IF LEAKS OCCUR, THE JOINT OR JOINTS SHALL
BE REPLACED AND THE TESTS REPEATED.
17. BACKFILLING OF TRENCHES: BECAUSE OF THE EXPANSION
AND CONTRACTION OF PLASTIC PIPE, BACKFILLING SHALL BE
DONE IN THE COOL PART OF THE DAY, ESPECIALLY IN HOT
CLIMATES. TRENCHES SHALL BE BACKFILLED WITH THE
EXCAVATED MATERIALS APPROVED FOR BACKFILLING, FREE
FROM LARGE CLODS OF EARTH OR STONES. BACKFILL SHALL
BE MECHANICALLY COMPACTED IN THE LANDSCAPED AREAS TO
A DRY DENSITY EQUAL TO ADJACENT UNDISTURBED SOIL IN
PLANTING AREAS. BACKFILL WILL CONFORM TO ADJACENT
GRADES WITHOUT DIPS, SUNKEN AREAS, HUMPS OR OTHER
SURFACE IRREGULARITIES.
18. TRENCHING AND BACKFILLING UNDER PAVING: TRENCHES
LOCATED UNDER WHERE PAVING, CONCRETE OR ASPHALT WILL
BE INSTALLED SHALL BE BACKFILLED IN ACCORDANCE WITH
RECOMMENDATION OF STRUCTURAL SOILS REPORT.
