This document specifies the values or options chosen for the test parameters, i.e. the impact energy for unnotched specimens, specimen dimensions, shape and span of the specimen supports, and type of specimen for both unnotched and notched specimens, for testing the impact resistance (pendulum method) of thermoplastics pipes of the following materials, when the test method shall conform to ISO 9854-1. It applies to pipes made of unplasticized poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC-U), high-impact poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC-HI), oriented unplasticized poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC-O), chlorinated poly(vinyl chloride)( PVC-C), acrylonitrile/butadiene/styrene (ABS), acrylonitrile /styrene/acrylate (ASA), propylene homopolymer (PP-H), propylene impact polymer (PP-B), propylene random copolymer (PP-R), propylene random copolymer with modified crystallinity (PP-RCT), and polyethylene(PE).

 

 

This document specifies the general properties of unplasticized polyamide (PA-U) compounds for the manufacture of pipes, fittings and valves made from these compounds, intended to be buried and used for the supply of gaseous fuels. It also specifies the test parameters for the test methods to which it refers. The ISO 16486 series is applicable to PA-U piping systems, the components of which are connected by fusion jointing and/or mechanical jointing. This document establishes a calculation and design scheme on which to base the maximum operating pressure (MOP) of a PA-U piping system.

 

 

This document specifies a test method for the determination of the opening, closing and running torque of thermoplastics valves. This document applies to all types of manually operable, with or without actuator, thermoplastics valves intended to be used for the transport of fluids. It does not specify the relationship between the torque and its possible increase after valve prolonged use at specific working condition or materials wear/chemical aggression.

 

This document specifies characteristics, requirements and test methods for laminate floor coverings with a surface layer as defined in 3.2 to 3.5. It also specifies requirements for marking and packaging. It includes a classification system, based on EN ISO 10874, giving practical requirements for areas of use and levels of use, to indicate where laminate floor coverings will give satisfactory service and to encourage the consumer to make an informed choice. Laminate floor coverings are generally designed for floating installations and are considered for domestic and commercial levels of use, including domestic kitchens. This document does not specify requirements relating to the use in areas which are subjected to frequent wetting, such as bathrooms, laundry rooms or saunas. In general, laminate floor coverings can only be used in those areas when authorized by the manufacturer and under conditions described in the manufacturer's installation guidelines.

 

This document gives the definitions and specifies the minimum requirements for injection moulded and thermoformed thermoplastics corrugated arch-shaped chambers, including integral components, used in underground systems for retention, detention, transportation and storage of non-potable water (e.g., storm water) and manufactured from polyethylene (PE) or polypropylene (PP). These chambers are intended for buried underground use in one horizontal layer, e.g. in landscape, pedestrian or vehicular traffic areas. In the case of retention and detention systems, the main purpose of the chambers is to retain water, for later infiltration in the ground or for later use in non-potable applications (irrigation, cleaning, sanitary facilities, etc.) or to detain water during a storm, transferring it in a controlled way to the public storm water network. Applications include commercial, residential, agricultural and highway drainage, including installation under parking lots and roadways. Product performance is determined by a combination of material specification, product design and manufacturing process. These chambers are intended to be used as elements in a modular system where the manufacturer has provided a clearly documented method specifying how the components are assembled to create a complete retention, detention, storage or transportation system.

 

This part of ISO 16486 specifies a code of practice dealing with unplasticized polyamide (PA-U) pipes and fittings for buried pipeline systems outside buildings and designed to transport gaseous fuels (as defined in part-1 of this standard, e.g.: methane, LPG, manufactured gas and hydrogen) within the temperature range – 20 °C to + 40 °C and gives appropriate temperature-related requirements. The code of practice covers mains and service lines whose components are prepared for fusion or mechanical jointing and gives instructions for the design, storage, handling, transportation, laying conditions and fusion quality control of PA-U pipes and fittings as well as subsequent joint testing, backfilling, pipe system testing, commissioning. More detailed national standards or codes of practice might exist in the ISO member countries. This part of ISO 16486 is intended to be applied in association with those national standards or codes of practice related to the above-mentioned basic principles. The jointing methods covered by this part of ISO 16486 are: In the case of ground movement or shaking (e.g.: earthquakes, etc.) precautions mentioned in this code of practice may need to be implemented following guidelines provided by authorities (e.g.: Eurocode 8,[14] Annex A of EN 12007-1,[15] etc.), Existing and new national regulations take precedence over this standard.
