[Current]Methods of test for plastic pipes and fittings, Method 29: Plastics piping and ducting systems — Determination of the long-term hydrostatic strength of thermoplastics materials in pipe form by extrapolation
The objective of this Test Method is to specify a method for predicting the long-term hydrostatic strength of thermoplastics materials by statistical extrapolation. The method is applicable to all types of thermoplastics pipe at applicable temperatures. This Test Method was developed on the basis of test data from pipe systems.
