ASTM F2719-09 (R2015) PDF Download

ASTM F2719-09 (R2015) is a standard practice that provides requirements and test methods for the installation of a semi-structural polyethylene (PE) and encapsulated cement mortar formed-in-place lining system (FIPLS). This practice specifically focuses on the rehabilitation of water pipelines with diameters ranging from 4 to 12 inches.

The purpose of this standard is to guide specifiers, regulatory agencies, owners, and inspection organizations involved in the rehabilitation of pressure mains and conduits, especially potable water lines. The standard emphasizes the importance of consulting the supplier of the FIPLS lining system product for design and installation information.

The renewal process described in this standard involves installing a folded PE liner with multiple hooks on the outside face into an existing water pipeline. Cement mortar is then pumped into the annular space, and the liner is progressively reformed against the original pipe wall using a reforming device forced through the pipeline.

This practice should be used in conjunction with the material specified in the Standard Specification for Polyethylene (PE) and Cement Materials for an Encapsulated Cement Mortar Formed in Place Lining System (FIPLS) for the Rehabilitation of Water Pipelines (ASTM F2718).
