The AASHTO M 86M/M 86-20 standard provides specifications for nonreinforced concrete sewer, storm drain, and culvert pipe. This standard is applicable to pipes used for the conveyance of sewage, industrial wastes, and storm water, as well as for the construction of culverts. However, it is important to note that this specification solely focuses on the manufacturing and purchasing aspects of the product. It does not include requirements for bedding, backfill, or the relationship between field load conditions and the strength classification of the pipe.

It is emphasized that proper selection of the class of pipe, type of bedding and backfill, and adherence to construction specifications are crucial for the successful performance of the product. Owner
