BS EN 1329-1:2000 Plastics piping systems for soil and waste discharge (low and high temperature) within the building structure. Unplasticized poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC-U). Specifications for pipes, fittings and the system
This European standard specifies the requirements for pipes, fittings and the system of unplasticized poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC-U) piping systems in the field of soil and waste discharge (low and high temperature) inside buildings (marked with "B") and for soil and waste discharge systems for both inside buildings and buried in ground within the building structure (marked with "BD").
It also specifies the test parameters for the test method referred to in this standard.
This standard covers a range of pipes and fittings sizes and gives recommendations concerning colours.
NOTE 1 It is the responsibility of the purchaser or specifier to make the appropriate selections from these aspects, taking into account their particular requirements and any relevant national regulations and installation practices or codes.
This standard does not cover requirements for K-value of the raw material.
This standard is applicable to PVC-U pipes and fittings, their joints and to joints with components of other plastics (marked with "B" or "BD") intended to be used for the following purposes:
a) soil and waste discharge pipework for the conveyance of domestic waste waters (low and high temperature);
b) ventilation pipework associated with a);
c) rainwater pipework within the building structure.
This standard is applicable to pipes and fittings, marked with "B", which are intended to be used inside building only and to pipes and fittings, marked with "BD", which are intended to be used inside building and buried in ground within the building structure.
NOTE 2 For use buried in ground within the building structure are intended only those components (marked with "BD") with nominal outside diameters equal to or greater than 75 mm.
NOTE 3 For external above ground application additional requirements depending on the climate should be agreed between the manufacturer and the user.
NOTE 4 Components conforming to other standards on plastics piping systems can be used with pipes and fittings conforming to this standard, provided they conform to the requirements for joint dimensions and functional requirements given in this standard.
