Fibre-Cement Pipes for Sewers and Drains: Manholes and Inspection Chambers
Also Known As:
The standard BS EN 588-2:2001 specifies the requirements for fibre-cement manholes and inspection chambers used in buried drains and sewers with gravity flow at atmospheric pressure. This standard covers both prefabricated elements and complete manholes and inspection chambers. It provides definitions, descriptions, and composition requirements for these products, as well as specifications for their general appearance, finish, geometrical characteristics, and mechanical characteristics. The standard also includes acceptance tests, type tests, and quality control requirements.
It is important to note that complete manholes or prefabricated elements can also be used for other purposes, such as pumping stations, drainage systems, or sewage treatment and disposal facilities. However, additional requirements from relevant European Standards must be met in these cases.
