AWWA C300-16 PDF Download

The AWWA C300-16 standard details the manufacture of reinforced concrete cylinder pipes in sizes ranging from 30 inches to 144 inches. This standard applies to pipes that are not prestressed or pretensioned and can be customized to meet the specific internal pressure, external loads, and bedding conditions required by the purchaser.

It is important to note that this standard does not cover aspects such as the design, handling, delivery, laying, field testing, or disinfection of the pipe. The AWWA Manual M9, Concrete Pressure Pipe, should be referred to for information on these topics.

The standard consists of several sections. Section 1 provides an overview of the scope, purpose, and application of the standard. Sections 2 and 3 list the references and definitions used throughout the document. Section 4 outlines the requirements, including permeation, drawings and data to be provided by the purchaser, data to be submitted by the manufacturer, materials, design, fabrication, fittings, and special pipe.

Section 5 focuses on verification and includes guidelines for inspection and testing conducted by the purchaser, as well as the different types of tests to be performed. Finally, Section 6 addresses the delivery of the pipe, discussing aspects such as marking, transportation, and the affidavit of compliance.
