Class A specifications.)
TESTS FOR WATER LINES
le a T 15--,3
lam". Time for Making for Tests: Tests shall be made only -after
completion of partial backfill - _ and not until
at least 36 hours after the last concrete thrust or reaction backing has
been cast with early strength cement, or at least 7 days after the last
concrete thrust or reaction backing has been cast with standard cement.
Pipe lines shall be tested before backfilling at joints, except when local
conditions, in the opinion of the City, are such that the trenches must he
backfilled immediately after laying the pipe, in which case the pressure
tests may be made after backfilling has been completed but before 'replace-
ment of permanent paving. -
Ce)
1-5- . Leakage tests of asbestos -cement pipe shall be made
only after the pipe has been filled with water for a minimum of 24 hours.
(k)
. Where practicable, pipe lines shall be tested in
lengths between line -valves or plugs of not more than 1, 500 feet.
(i Procedure for Testing. Each section of pipe line shall be
chlorinated just prior to testing. Each section of pipe line shall be slowly
filled with water and the specified test pressure, measured at the point of
lowest elevation, shall be applied by means of a test pump connected to the
pipe, in a manner satisfactory to the City. The test pump, • pipe connections
and all necessary apparatus, gages and meters shall be furnished, installed
and operated by the Contractor, at his expense.
. Expelling Air Before Tests. During the filling of the
pipe and before applying the specified test pressure, all air shall be ex-
pelled from the pipe.line. To accomplish this, taps shall be made, if
necessary, at point of highest elevation, and after completion of the test
the taps shall be tightly plugged unless otherwise specified. T-aps and plugs
will he installed by the Contractory. }�
(3; Pressure Tests.
C, . 1 s& 4. Hydrostatic Test Pressure
(. )1 . Cast Iron Pipe - 125 psi
L»)1 . Asbestos Cement Pipe: The pipe shall be
subjected to hydrostatic pressure 50 percent above normal operating
pressure but not exceeding 50 lbs. more than the rated working pressure
of the pipe. The normal operating pressure shall be defined by the City.
O. _. Duration of each pressure test shall be not less than
one hour unless otherwise directed by t-he City.
%) ems. Examination under Pressure. All exposed pipes, fit-
tings, valves, hydrants, joints and asbestos -cement couplings will be care-
fully examined. If found to be cracked or defective, they shall be removed
and replaced by the Contractor with sound material at the Contractor's ex-
pense. The test shall then be repeated until satisfactory to the City.
C-t) . Leakage Tests
(00 fIydrostatic Test Pressure
Cej 1,, Cast Iron Pipe 125 psi.
(k) 1 � Asbestos -Cement Pipe - The pressure to be
maintained. during the test shall be the normal operating pressure and shall
be specified by the City.
CAf 1' Duration of each leakage test shall he not less than 2
hours where joints are exposed, and not less than 24 hours where joints
are covered.
(c)10. Examination of Individual Joints for •Leakage: All exposed
pipes, fitti-ngs, valves, hydrants and joints shall be examined for leakage
during the test._ Any joint found where the accumulated leakage of that joint
exceedsthe rate of leakage specified in Table A shall be rejected by the
City. A11wisible leaks at exposed joints, and all leaks evident on the
surface -where joints are covered, shall be stopped and leakage minimized,
regardless of total leakage as shown by test.
4. 4. Overall Permissible Leakage:
C'2 1t1 4. 4 a. Cast Iron Pipe: Pipe lines shall show leakage
not exceeding •100 gallpns per 24 hours per inch diameter per mile of pipe.
61)+-8-4: - Asbestos -Cement Pipe: No pipe installation
x ill be accepted until or unless the leakage for the section of line tested
is less than the rate of leakage specified in Table A. In calculating leak-
age the City will make allowance for added joints in the pipe line above
those incidential to normal 13-foot lengths of pipe and for which Table A
applies. Should any test of a section of pipe line disclose joint leakage
greater than that permitted, the Contractor shall at his own expense locate
and repair the defective joints until the leakage is within the permitted
allowance.
