Designation:F2510/F2510M07(Reapproved 2013)Standard Specification forResilient Connectors Between Reinforced Concrete ManholeStructures and Corrugated High Density PolyethyleneDrainage Pipes1This standard is issued under the fixed designation F2510/F2510M;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 the design,material,and mini-mum performance requirements of resilient connectors usedfor connections between reinforced concrete structures con-forming to Specifications C478 and C913 to annular corrugatedprofile wall high density polyethylene(HDPE)drainage pipeconforming to AASHTO M252 or Specification F2306/F2306M.1.1.1 These connectors are designed to provide a positiveseal between the pipe and manholes or other structuressubjected to internal and external hydrostatic pressures lessthan 10.8 psi 74 KPa.1.1.2 Testing under this standard is limited to hydrostaticpressures.Alternate air and vacuum pressure testing involveunique testing protocols and are not addressed under thisstandard.1.1.3 Testing under this standard is conducted in a labora-tory as a proof of design certification.Actual field performancetesting would be accomplished and accepted under individualproject performance standards or pipeline acceptance criteria,which is outside the scope of this standard.NOTE1Infiltration or exfiltration quantities for an installed system aredependent upon many factors other than the connections between manholestructures and pipe,and allowable quantities must be covered by otherspecifications and suitable testing of the installed pipeline and system.NOTE2This specification may be applied to other types of plasticdrainage pipe.Consult with manufacturer of pipe for applicability to thisstandard.1.2 The values stated in either inch-pound units or SI unitsare to be regarded separately as standard.Within the text the SIunits are shown in brackets.The values stated in each systemmay not be exact equivalents:therefore,each system shall beused independently of the other.Combining values from thetwo systems may result in non-conformance with the standard.1.3 The following precautionary caveat pertains only to thetest methods portion,Section 7.This standard does not purportto address all of the safety concerns,if any,associated with itsuse.It is the responsibility of the user of this standard toestablish appropriate safety and health practices and deter-mine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.For a specific precaution statement,see 7.2.3.2.Referenced Documents2.1 ASTM Standards:2A493 Specification for Stainless Steel Wire and Wire Rodsfor Cold Heading and Cold ForgingA666 Specification for Annealed or Cold-Worked AusteniticStainless Steel Sheet,Strip,Plate,and Flat BarC478 Specification for Circular Precast Reinforced ConcreteManhole SectionsC822 Terminology Relating to Concrete Pipe and RelatedProductsC913 Specification for Precast Concrete Water and Waste-water StructuresD624 Test Method for Tear Strength of Conventional Vul-canized Rubber and Thermoplastic ElastomersD746 Test Method for Brittleness Temperature of Plasticsand Elastomers by ImpactD1566 Terminology Relating to RubberF412 Terminology Relating to Plastic Piping SystemsF477 Specification for Elastomeric Seals(Gaskets)for Join-ing Plastic PipeF2306/F2306M Specification for 12 to 60 in.300 to 1500mm Annular Corrugated Profile-Wall Polyethylene(PE)Pipe and Fittings for Gravity-Flow Storm Sewer andSubsurface Drainage Applications2.2 Other Standards:3M 252 Standard Specification for Corrugated PolyethyleneDrainage Pipe 75 to 250 mm Diameter1This specification is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee F17 on PlasticPiping Systems and is the direct responsibility of Subcommittee F17.20 on Joining.Current edition approved Feb.1,2013.Published February 2013.Originallyapproved in 2006.Last previous edition approved in 2007 as F2510/F2510M07.DOI:10.1520/F2510_F2510M-07R13.2For 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.Copyright ASTM International,100 Barr Harbor Drive,PO Box C700,West Conshohocken,PA 19428-2959.United States1 3.Terminology3.1 Definitions of Terms Specific to This Standard:3.1.1 Terms relating to plastics and rubber shall be asdefined in Terminologies F412 and D1566,respectively.3.1.2 Terms relating to precast concrete manholes andrelated products shall be as defined in Terminology C822 andas modified
