Vitrified clay pipes and fittings and pipe joints for drains and sewers - Part 1: Requirements
(Second revision)
This Malaysian Standard specifies requirements for flexibly jointed vitrified clay pipes and fittings with or without sockets for the construction of drainage and sewerage systems. Although normally operated under gravity, the pipes and fittings covered by this standard will accept periodic hydraulic surcharge.
If pipes are required to withstand continuous working under low pressure, the pressure used in tests in this document shall be agreed between the manufacturer and the purchaser with a maximum test pressure of 600 kPa (6.0 bar).
The preferred dimensions for pipe lengths, curvature of bends and angles of junction arms are specified in this document. Other values for these dimensions are acceptable provided the products meet all the relevant performance requirements and are marked correctly. Fittings groups covered by this part of this standard are given in MS 1061: Part 2.
Where this document provides for different strength classes, different systems of jointing dimensions, different lengths and different fittings, the specifiers/purchasers may select according to their requirements.
