Standard Practice for Minimum Structural Design Loading for Monolithic or Sectional Precast Concrete Water and Wastewater Structures
Also Known As:
The ASTM C890-19 standard aims to provide a standardized approach to determining the minimum loads required for the structural design of precast concrete water and wastewater structures.
The practice states that its purpose is to establish a consistent set of minimum loads to be applied during the design process. However, it cautions users to consider that field conditions may require the use of loads that exceed the specified minimums. This emphasizes the importance of properly assessing and correlating the anticipated field conditions and requirements with the design loads.
The document explicitly mentions that it applies to various precast concrete structures used in water and wastewater applications, excluding concrete pipe, box culverts, utility structures, and materials covered in Specification C478. This limitation ensures that the standard is applicable to a specific subset of precast concrete structures within the water and wastewater industry.
