board precut to profile of pipe. Socketed pipes: Fill gaps between spigots and sockets with
resilient material to prevent entry of concrete.
CONCRETE SURROUND FOR PIPE RUNS NEAR FOUNDATIONS
Concrete surround: Provide in locations where bottom of trench is lower than bottom of
foundation. Measurements are horizontal clear distances between nearest edges of
foundations and pipe trenches.
Trenches less than one metre from foundations: Top of concrete surround not lower than
bottom of foundation.
Trenches more than one metre from foundations: Top of concrete surround not lower than
D mm below bottom of foundation, where D mm is horizontal distance of trench from
foundation, less 150 mm.
CROSSOVERS
Concrete surround: Provide where two pipelines (other than plastics pipes) cross with less
than 300 mm separation.
Extent, on both pipes: 1 m centred on the crossing point, and beyond as necessary to come
within 150 mm of next nearest flexible joints.
LAYING PIPELINES
Pipes and fittings: From same manufacturer for each pipeline.
Jointing: Use recommended lubricants. Leave recommended gaps at ends of spigots to
allow for movement.
Jointing differing pipes and fittings: With adaptors recommended by pipe manufacturer.
Laying pipes: To true line and regular gradient on even bed for full length of barrel with
sockets (if any) facing up the gradient.
Protect from damage and ingress of debris. Seal all exposed ends during construction.
Timing: Minimize time between laying and testing. Backfill after successful initial testing.
