Designation:C87716Standard Specification forExternal Sealing Bands for Concrete Pipe,Manholes,andPrecast Box Sections1This standard is issued under the fixed designation C877;the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or,in the case of revision,the year of last revision.A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.Asuperscript epsilon()indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1.Scope1.1 This specification covers external sealing bands to beused in conjunction with concrete pipe as defined in Terminol-ogy C822 and conforming to Specifications C14,C76,C412,C478,C506,C507,C655,C985,C1417,and C1433.1.1.1 Type I,Rubber and Mastic Bands.1.1.2 Type II,Plastic Film and Mesh Reinforced MasticBands.1.1.3 Type III,Chemically-Bonded Adhesive Butyl Bands.1.2 This specification is the inch-pound companion toSpecification C877M;therefore,no SI equivalents are pre-sented in the specification.NOTE1This specification covers only the design and material of thesealing bands.Sealing bands covered by this specification are adequate,when properly installed,for external hydrostatic pressures up to 13 psi,(30 ft)without leakage.The amount of infiltration or exfiltration flow inan installed pipeline is dependent upon many factors other than the sealingbands;allowable quantities and suitable testing of the installed pipelineand system must be covered by other specifications.2.Referenced Documents2.1 ASTM Standards:2A167 Specification for Stainless and Heat-ResistingChromium-Nickel Steel Plate,Sheet,and Strip(With-drawn 2014)3C14 Specification for Nonreinforced Concrete Sewer,StormDrain,and Culvert PipeC76 Specification for Reinforced Concrete Culvert,StormDrain,and Sewer PipeC412 Specification for Concrete Drain TileC478 Specification for Circular Precast Reinforced ConcreteManhole SectionsC506 Specification for Reinforced Concrete Arch Culvert,Storm Drain,and Sewer PipeC507 Specification for Reinforced Concrete EllipticalCulvert,Storm Drain,and Sewer PipeC655 Specification for Reinforced Concrete D-LoadCulvert,Storm Drain,and Sewer PipeC681 Test Method for Volatility of Oil-and Resin-Based,Knife-Grade,Channel Glazing CompoundsC822 Terminology Relating to Concrete Pipe and RelatedProductsC985 Specification for Nonreinforced Concrete SpecifiedStrength Culvert,Storm Drain,and Sewer PipeC1417 Specification for Manufacture of Reinforced Con-crete Sewer,Storm Drain,and Culvert Pipe for DirectDesignC1433 Specification for Precast Reinforced Concrete Mono-lithic Box Sections for Culverts,Storm Drains,andSewersD36 Test Method for Softening Point of Bitumen(Ring-and-Ball Apparatus)D217 Test Methods for Cone Penetration of LubricatingGreaseD395 Test Methods for Rubber PropertyCompression SetD412 Test Methods for Vulcanized Rubber and Thermoplas-tic ElastomersTensionD471 Test Method for Rubber PropertyEffect of LiquidsD570 Test Method for Water Absorption of PlasticsD573 Test Method for RubberDeterioration in an AirOvenD624 Test Method for Tear Strength of Conventional Vul-canized Rubber and Thermoplastic ElastomersD882 Test Method for Tensile Properties of Thin PlasticSheetingD903 Test Method for Peel or Stripping Strength of Adhe-sive BondsD1171 Test Method for Rubber DeteriorationSurfaceOzone Cracking Outdoors(Triangular Specimens)D1278 Test Methods for Rubber from Natural SourcesChemical AnalysisD1682 Test Method for Breaking Load and Elongation ofTextile Fabric(Withdrawn 1992)31This specification is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee C13 onConcrete Pipe and is the direct responsibility of Subcommittee C13.08 on Joints forPrecast Concrete Structures.Current edition approved Dec.15,2016.Published January 2017.Originallyapproved in 1977.Last previous edition approved in 2008 as C877 08.DOI:10.1520/C0877-16.2For referenced ASTM standards,visit the ASTM website,www.astm.org,orcontact ASTM Customer Service at serviceastm.org.For Annual Book of ASTMStandards volume information,refer to the standards Document Summary page onthe ASTM website.3The last approved version of this historical standard is referenced onwww.astm.org.Copyright ASTM International,100 Barr Harbor Drive,PO Box C700,West Conshohocken,PA 19428-2959.United StatesThis international standard was developed in accordance with internationally recognized principles on standardization established in the Decision on Principles for theDevelopment of International Standards,Guides and Recommendations issued by the World Trade Organization Technical Barriers to Trade(TBT)Committee.1 D1963 Test Method for Specific Gravity of Drying Oils,Varnishes,Resins,and Related Materials at 25/25C(Withdrawn 2004)3D2202 Test Method for Slump of SealantsD2240 Test Method for Rubber PropertyDurometer Hard-nessD3407 Test Methods for Joint Sealants,Hot-Poured,forConcrete and Asphalt Pavements(Withdrawn 1996)3D3953 Specification for Strapping,Flat Steel and Seals3.Terminology3.1 DefinitionsFor definitions of terms rel
