Investigation and assessment of drain and sewer systems outside buildings - Part 2: Visual inspection coding system
Also Known As:
The DIN EN 13508-2 standard provides guidelines for the visual inspection and assessment of drain and sewer systems located outside buildings. This standard is specifically focused on the establishment of the condition of sewers, drains, manholes, and inspection chambers through the use of inspection, status codification, and consideration of external factors and other relevant information.
The scope of this standard covers drain and sewer systems that operate primarily under gravity, starting from the point where the sewage leaves a building or roof drainage system, or enters a road gully, and extends up to the point where it is discharged into a treatment works or receiving water. It aims to ensure a systematic approach to visually inspecting and assessing the condition of these systems, providing a standardized coding system to record and categorize the observations made during the inspection process.
