Designation:F2562/F2562M15Specification forSteel Reinforced Thermoplastic Ribbed Pipe and Fittings forNon-Pressure Drainage and Sewerage1This standard is issued under the fixed designation F2562/F2562M;the number immediately following the designation indicates the yearof original adoption or,in the case of revision,the year of last revision.A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.A superscript epsilon()indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1.Scope1.1 This specification covers requirements and test methodsfor materials,dimensions,workmanship,impact resistance,pipe stiffness,flattening,buckling,tensile strength of seam,joint systems,perforations,and markings for steel reinforcedthermoplastic pipe and fittings of nominal sizes 8 in.200 mmthrough 120 in.3000 mm.The steel reinforced,spirallyformed thermoplastic pipes governed by this standard areintended for use in underground applications where soil pro-vides support for their flexible walls.These pipes will be usedfor gravity flow and non-pressure applications,such as stormsewers,sanitary sewers,industrial waste applications anddrainage pipes.1.2 UnitsThe values stated in either inch-pound units orSI units are to be regarded separately as standard.Within thetext the SI units are shown in brackets.The values stated ineach system may not be exact equivalents:therefore,eachsystem shall be used independently of the other.Combiningvalues from the two systems may result in non-conformancewith the standard.1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns,if any,associated with its use.It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.1.4 There is no similar or equivalent ISO standard.2.Referenced Documents2.1 ASTM Standards:2A1008/A1008M Specification for Steel,Sheet,Cold-Rolled,Carbon,Structural,High-Strength Low-Alloy,High-Strength Low-Alloy with Improved Formability,SolutionHardened,and Bake HardenableA1011/A1011M Specification for Steel,Sheet and Strip,Hot-Rolled,Carbon,Structural,High-Strength Low-Alloy,High-StrengthLow-AlloywithImprovedFormability,and Ultra-High StrengthD618 Practice for Conditioning Plastics for TestingD638 Test Method for Tensile Properties of PlasticsD2122 Test Method for Determining Dimensions of Ther-moplastic Pipe and FittingsD2321 Practice for Underground Installation of Thermoplas-tic Pipe for Sewers and Other Gravity-Flow ApplicationsD2412 Test Method for Determination of External LoadingCharacteristics of Plastic Pipe by Parallel-Plate LoadingD2444 Test Method for Determination of the Impact Resis-tance of Thermoplastic Pipe and Fittings by Means of aTup(Falling Weight)D3212 Specification for Joints for Drain and Sewer PlasticPipes Using Flexible Elastomeric SealsD3350 Specification for Polyethylene Plastics Pipe and Fit-tings MaterialsF412 Terminology Relating to Plastic Piping SystemsF477 Specification for Elastomeric Seals(Gaskets)for Join-ing Plastic PipeF2136 Test Method for Notched,Constant Ligament-Stress(NCLS)Test to Determine Slow-Crack-Growth Resis-tance of HDPE Resins or HDPE Corrugated Pipe2.2 American Association of State Highway and Transpor-tation Offcials(AASHTO)3AASHTO LRFD Bridge Construction Specification Section26AASHTO M294-05 Corrugated Polyethylene Pipe,300-to1500-mm Diameter2.3 Federal Standards:4Fed.Std.No.123 Marking for Shipment(Civil Agencies)2.4 Military Standards:MIL-STD-129 Marking for Shipment and Storage1This specification is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee F17 on PlasticPiping Systems and is the direct responsibility of Subcommittee F17.11 onComposite.Current edition approved April 15,2015.Published July 2015.Originallyapproved in 2007.Last previous edition approved in 2008 as F2562/F2562M-08.DOI:10.1520/F2562_F2562M-15.2For 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.3Available from American Association of State Highway and TransportationOfficials(AASHTO),444 N.Capitol St.,NW,Suite 249,Washington,DC 20001,http:/www.transportation.org.4DLA Document Services Building 4/D 700 Robbins Avenue Philadelphia,PA19111-5094 http:/quicksearch.dla.mil/Copyright ASTM International,100 Barr Harbor Drive,PO Box C700,West Conshohocken,PA 19428-2959.United States1 3.Terminology3.1 DefinitionsDefinitions used in this specification are inaccordance with Terminology F412,unless otherwise noted.3.2 Definitions of Terms Specific to This Standard:3.2.1 gravity flow,na condition where liquid flow througha piping system results from a downward pipeline slope,butflow is less than full,except during conditions when the systemmay become temporarily surcharged in which case,the systemis subject to temporary internal hydrostatic pressure th
