PVC Pipe Deflection |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
PVC Pipe Deflection The response of PVC pipe to longitudinal bending is considered a significant advantage of PVC pipe in buried applications. PVC pipe may be deliberately curved during the installation operation to make a change in alignment and grade, or to make a change in direction. The shortest longitudinal bending radius allowed for PVC pipe is equal to 300 times the pipe’s outside diameter. Most sewer projects do not allow for bends and curves but rather a straight line and grade from manhole to manhole. As with pressure pipe, Northern Pipe Products Inc. PVC sewer pipe may also be curved to allow for bending in the trenching operation to make a change in alignment and grade, or to make a gradual change in direction. The next charts define the minimum radius of curvature and the maximum recommended offset per length of pipe. |
