02415.00 1090 Section 02415 - Plastic Pipe
Description
02415.00Scope - This Section includes the requirements f or Polyethylene Pipe, polypropylene pipe
and polyvinyl chloride pipe.
02415.01Definitions:
Corrugated Polyethylene Pipe - Pipe that is extruded to form a smooth inner wall and a corrugated external wall. The corrugations are hollow.
Polyethylene Pipe - Pipe using high density polyethylene (HDPE) resins are included in three specific sub -categories; corrugated, solid-wall, and steel -reinforced.
Solid-Wall Polyethylene Pipe - Pipe that is extruded to form a solid pipe wall. The joint may be either but t fused or bell and spigot.
Steel Reinforced Polyethylene Pipe - Pipe that is extruded to form a smooth inner wall and a corrugated external wall. The corrugations are solid and contain a continuous steel reinforcement band.
