Figures
1 Discharge rates of clean sewers made from
unplasticized PVC pipes in the nominal size range
from 110 to 630 for different gradients based on a
roughness, ks, of 0.006 mm
2 Discharge rates of mature sewers made from
unplasticized PVC pipes in the nominal size range
from 110 to 630 for different gradients
3 Details of concrete surround
4 Alternative to concrete surround as shown in figure 3
5 Bedding details for a pipe in a narrow trench
6 Bedding details for a pipe in a wide trench
7 Unplasticized PVC pipe passing through a wall
8 Sections through typical adaptors to join
unplasticized PVC pipes to pipes of other materials
Deals with flow properties, joints, storage, transport, handling, inspection, installation, testing, cleaning and repair.
