INSPECTION & Testing

8.1 After completing the installation of piping works gravity leak test is conducted to
ensure and prove the tightness of the joints and ensure there is no leakage in the
piping system.
8.2 The whole pipe work as one system and / or the part of the completed pipe work
as highlighted in the concerned area based on the concrete pour progress and site
conditions shall be tested in accordance with the following steps.
8.3 Test plugs are inserted at the lower end of the drain or sewer and at the head of
any connections with proper supports.
8.4 A suitable bend together with a vertical length of pipe is fitted at the head of the
sewer or drain to provide the necessary test head. The system is then filled with
water from top.
8.5 No section shall be tested to less than a 3- meters head of water. In testing
successive sections at least the upper 3-meters of the next preceding section shall
be tested so that no joint or pipe, except the upper most 3-meters of the whole
system shall have been subjected to a test of less than a 3- meters head of water
for 24 hours.
8.6 The sewer or drain under test should be filled with water for at least 4 hours before
inspection.
8.7 The loss of water over a period of 30 minutes should be measured by adding
known quantities of water every 10 minutes to maintain the original level of
standpipe. The loss water should not exceed the equivalent 1 liter per hour, per
linear meter, per meter of nominal diameter.
8.8 While system is under pressure, all the system is inspected thoroughly for any
leaks in joints. Pipe or fittings is found defective shall be corrected immediately by
replacing defective parts with new joints and materials.
8.3 After repairing any leaks and defects. After rectification retest piping portion thereof
until satisfactory results are obtained.
8.4 For the installation and testing necessary SIR shall be raised by TEM QA/QC as
per the ITP.
8.5 Test result shall be recorded and documented.

Coat mating surfaces with solvent cement using a clean

brush, assemble joint immediately, removing any excess
cement with a clean rag. Initial set 3-minutes. Note 24 hours
is required for the joint to fully set before testing. (Fig. 2).
Brush supplied with tin is suitable only for sizes up to 50mm
for larger sizes use at least 12mm brush. Directions for use
of solvent cement are printed on the container label and
must be followed closely.

Conversion of solvent weld socket to

seal ring joint (using 109 adaptor)
Under normal use only fit 109 to upstream socket.

Step 1
Clean mating surfaces with Terrain cleaning fluid 9101 (Fig.3).

Step 2
Fit seal ring into 109 collar (Fig. 4)

Step 3
Carefully apply solvent cement to mating surfaces (Fig. 5)

Step 4
Assemble immediately applying firm even pressure until
collar is in correct position (Fig. 6)

Sitework Instructions
Seal ring jointing - 109
Step 1
File a 45 chamfer onto end of square cut pipe. Lubricate
rubber seal with Terrain lubricant 9136 (Fig.7).

Step 2
Enter pipe fully into socket, mark pipe as shown (Fig. 8).

Step 3

Fig. 7

Fig. 8

Withdraw pipe until the mark is 12mm away from socket.

This means a 12mm gap exists between the end of the pipe
and the socket register. This gap will allow the pipe to
expand without distorting the pipework. Anchor the
expansion joint with a holderbat or if not practical anchor a
fitting within 1 metre of the joint (Fig 9 & 10).

Slip coupling - 111.S

Step 2

Slip couplings are used for inserting additional fittings such

as branch or for remedial work in existing soil pipework.
To insert fitting:

Slide the couplings completely over the spigot ends of the

existing pipe.

Step 1
Assemble the fitting with a short length of pipe in the
appropriate sockets. Cut out a section of the assembly,
allowing for an expansion gap. Clean and chamfer pipe ends.
Lubricate seals of the slip couplings.

Step 3
Insert and line up the new assembly, slide back the couplings
to cover over the joints. Secure slip couplings with
holderbats. (See Fig. 11).
