It has long been accepted that spiral-welded steel pipe makes for quality pipelines andfoundations. Now project designers are realising it has inherent advantages over
conventional longitudinal seam and girth welded barrel rolled pipe. The spiral formingprocess produces accurately manufactured pipe which ensures ease of use and, whencombined with high quality welding and testing, guarantees toughness, flexibility,versatility, safety in service, dependability and cost-effectiveness.
Benefits of Steel PipeSteelpipe New Zealand produces spiral-welded steel pipe to the highest quality. Thispipe is used throughout the world in a wide variety of applications including waterand sewage transmission, outfalls, pile casings, high-spec pipelines and commercialstructures. Spiral welded steel pipe offers numerous advantages over conventionalpipe, as detailed below.
Greater strength in proportion to wall thickness of any competitive product. It operatessafely at higher pressures and its strength provides distinct handling and layingadvantages in difficult locations. The weld is significantly less affected by circumferentialstress than alternative products.
Dependability and longevity.Recent major advances in steel fabricating, weldingtechniques and coatings development ensure theuseful life of the product and, once installed, it canbe depended upon to do the job for which it wasdesigned.
Ease of layingdue to longer pipe lengths, whichmeans less jointing; welded joints provide a pipelinethat acts as a structural member.
Flexibility of product permits it to live in theground secure against soil movement or abnormalshocks.
Accuracy of manufacturemeans an exceptionallystraight and circular product. This represents
significant advantages when matching pipes andpromotes ease of driving for pile purposes. Theconsistent circularity also produces advantageswhen jointing in the field and contributes to ease ofsplicing.
Versatilityof the spiral forming process enables awide range of diameters to be manufactured fromone common feed stock, which encourages pricecompetitiveness.

Sustainability
Supplier Statement of PositionSteelpipe New Zealand is committed to sustainability and
being a good corporate citizen by conducting business inan ethical, legal, environmentally and socially responsiblemanner.
The major raw material used in spiral welded pipe is steelwhich we source from New Zealand Steel Ltd
Unique Steel Made in New Zealand, for New ZealandNew Zealand Steel is the only steel manufacturer in the world to make steel fromironsand. High quality steel is manufactured from the vast inland ironsand depositson New Zealands west coast of the North Island. All materials used in New ZealandSteels manufacturing process are sourced locally in New Zealand and the end to endsteel making process is all conducted at the plant in Glenbrook, South of Auckland. Itis 100% New Zealand made.
New Zealand Steel recycles hot gases and steam in its Cogeneration plant to create upto 70% of its own electricity needs.
Up to 80% of waste from the steel making process is recycled back into the process orin to co-products. It is New Zealand Steels goal to achieve Zero Waste.
Land Restoration 25% of mined sand is extracted as Titanomagnetite (ironsand). Theremainder is returned to the mined areas, which are then planted with marram grass
and pine trees. Once restored there is little or no trace of mining.
New Zealand Steel also has rigorous sustainability processes and practices in place. Ithas ISO14001 environmental accreditation, has been judged best practice in energyefficiency by The Hatch Report, an International body and been awarded an Ministry ofEnvironment Award for waste reduction.
Steelpipe as a Sustainable Material Steel is 100% recyclable and is the most recycled material in the world. It does not suffer product degradation through endless recycling. Steel is relatively easy to recover from waste streams.
The metal recycling industry in New Zealand is well established. More than 90% of commercial steel construction waste is recycled. 40% of global steel output is made from recycled scrap. Steel contributes low levels of construction waste (6%) (Source: MfE). Steel is strong, long lasting and versatile, non-combustible and non-toxic. Steel lends itself to design for re-use.

Coating Systems
Modern external coating systems are the primary line of defence against corrosion ofsteel pipe systems and are very effective when properly applied. Steelpipe New Zealand
offers several internationally specified coating systems. The requirements of each varywith the type of construction, system operating conditions, and the aggressiveness ofthe environment in which it will serve. The effectiveness of each coating system hingeson a range of parameters including:
Permanence and the degree to which it can resist physical hazards such astransportation, installation, soil stress and pressure;
Resistance to water penetration or absorption; Effective electrical insulation properties; Chemical inertness to soil, air, water and bacterial action.
General criteria - such as ease of application, high adhesion and compatibility of usewith cathodic protection - will also determine coating efficiency.
Coating SelectionIt is difficult to identify the corrosion potential of a steel pipe exterior due to the varietyof environments encountered. Resistivity of the soil is the greatest determinant ofcorrosiveness. Of secondary importance are soil chemical and physical analyses, pH,moisture content, and existence of stray electrical currents; each play an important rolein the selection process.
Once the level of soil corrosiveness is determined, subsequent conditions that affect thelong-term performance of protective coatings should be considered. Among these are:
Distorting stresses exerted on the coating during compaction and settling of thebackfill;
Mechanical stresses created by certain soils having very high expansion andshrinkage during wet and dry cycles;
Penetration by growing roots; Action of bacteria and fungus in soil surrounding the pipeline; Attack by soil chemicals or industrial wastes, chemicals and solvents that may be
present along the pipeline route.
Coating performance depends on putting the pipeline into service with the least amount
of coating damage. The system selected must not only meet the corrosion-controlneeds, but should also allow economical transportation, handling, storage, and pipelineconstruction with minimal coating damage. To ensure precise control of applicationand quality, the coatings are applied in a controlled factory environment. SteelpipeNew Zealand can provide a guide for appropriate protection during transportation,handling, and storage of pipe for a specific coating system.

Steelpipe New Zealand is able to apply a range of coating systems at its manufacturingfacility in Onehunga, Auckland.
Polyken SynergyTM
Polyken, as the industry leader in coating technology, has developed and commercialised,SynergyTM; a revolutionary new plant coating system. SynergyTMis a heat fused systemconsisting of primer, anti-corrosion layer and mechanical protection outerwrap, thatcombine to form a coating system that excels in toughness, corrosion protection andversatility.
Each component of SynergyTM has its specific attributes. Stress corrosion crackinginhibitors, heat-enhanced shear resistance, cathodic disbondment resistance andhigh adhesion properties characterise the primer. The innerwrap layer serves as animpermeable barrier to water and corrosive elements, and possesses an aggressiveadhesive engineered for high shear resistance and a polymeric alloy backing whichfuses completely with the outerwrap. The Polyken mechanical outerwrap layer is non-adhesive and comprises a polymeric alloy blended film, which is designed to fuse toitself to the innerwrap during application. This total fusion process creates a coatingwith excellent shear resistance, mechanical protection, superior impact resistance andoutstanding cathodic disbonding resistance.
Polyken products have been used by Steelpipe New Zealand since the early 1980s andhas proven performance throughout the world as illustrated in the Product ReferenceLists as attached (one for Polyken Synergy the other for Polyken products).
The Polyken Synergy product is applied to the American Water Works Associationstandard AWWA C225-2007: AWWA Standard for Fused Polyolefin Coating Systemsfor the Exterior of Steel Water Pipelines.
Polyken YGIIIThe Polyken YGIII coating system is a highly effective, cold applied anti-corrosionsystem for in-ground pipelines. Once again, a Polyken primer is employed. An anti-corrosion innerwrap and either one or two layers of outerwrap makeup the secondarycomponents of YGIII.
Polyken innerwrap incorporates a butyl alloy adhesive designed for plant coating
operations, and delivers a superior bond and conformity when applied to primed steelpipe. It is this layer that provides key corrosion protection to pipelines, both chemicallyand electrolytically.
Designed to aggressively adhere to the innerwrap, the outerwrap is a tough protectivesteel pipe outerwrap that is Holiday (pin hole) free. Its high density polyethylene backingis renowned for its ability to protect the innerwrap from damage during transportation,handling and installation.
Steelpipe New Zealand offers YGIII coating for pipe sizes above 1254mm OD, inaccordance with the specification for cold applied tape wraps provided by the American
Water Works Association: AWWA C214.

Specialist Coating SystemsSteelpipe New Zealand is able to assist with the specification of specialist protective
systems and has developed strong relationships with other companies for theapplication of the chosen system. The following table of applications cover some ofthe more common areas where specialist coating systems are required with some ofthe alternative options available on the market.
All coated pipe is examined for Holidays (pin holes) through the employment of highvoltage in line detection equipment, in accordance with the NACE standard. AnyHolidays detected are repaired in the factory environment.
It is imperative that Steelpipe technical staff are involved at the outset to determinethe nature of the environment that the pipe will end up in. As well as providing advice,qualified staff are also able to provide points of reference for each of the differentsystems.

Lining Systems
Pipe linings, as a form of corrosion control, play an important role in determining apipelines life span. As with coatings, the requirements of a specific lining will vary with
the type of fluid being conveyed and the environment. But there are other factors toconsider when choosing a lining. For example, toxicological requirements for potablewater, abrasion resistance and chemical attack.
Lining SelectionThe ultimate function of an internal lining system is the prevention of internal corrosion,while secondary functions include the production and maintenance of a smooth surfaceto ensure maximum flow capacity. The flowchart (below) provides a straightforwardapproach to determining what the most effective lining for your pipeline might be.Steelpipe New Zealand should be consulted for advice on the best solution.

Concrete LiningConcrete linings for steel water and/or wastewater mains are noted for their durability,
providing many years of excellent service (in many cases, in excess of 50 years). Thesesurfaces are safeguarded by the alkaline cement environment, developed by theformation of calcium hydroxide during hydration of the cement, to neutralise the steelcorrosion process. The neutralisation occurs quickly in newly-lined surfaces and is notaffected by moisture and oxygen absorbed through the mortar lining.
Additional benefits of this form of lining include low-hydraulic frictional resistance andenvironmental soundness. Between the manufacture and installation of the lined pipe,the linings might exhibit shrinkage cracking. Autogeneous healingwill take place once the pipeline is in service. Please ensure that pipeline is commissionedappropriately before use.
Concrete is composed of Portland cement, sand and water, with the addition ofaggregate. Steelpipe New Zealand is able to supply concrete-lined pipelines in lengthsfrom 6.0 metres to 12.0 metres, and in sizes up to 1900 NB diameter.
Concrete linings can be achieved in accordance with several international standardsincluding the New Zealand Standard (NZS 4442), and the Australian Standard (AS1281).
Alternative LiningsThe range of alternative linings is comprehensive, varying from epoxy systems tourethanes that are applied on an abrasively cleaned surface. When making a selection,
there are a number of considerations, especially weight factors, highly aggressive wateror an unpleasant taste.
The most common alternative lining, the epoxy system, demonstrates excellent corrosionresistance properties and offers the required smoothness to maintain flow capacity.The lining system is able to protect steel water and waste water lines by isolating pipesurfaces from the environment. Please note that products utilised by this system musthave received potable water certification.

Flanged JointsThe flanged joint typically comprises a steel ring with machined face and drilled holes
welded to the end of the pipe or fitting, in accordance with a range of standardspecifications. The flanged joint requires no site welding or special equipment forinstallment.
In reticulation applications, flanges are commonly required for attaching pipes topumps, valves or other pipe materials. When specifying flanges, it is important tonominate exact specifications, sizes and dimensions to eliminate the possibility ofmismatching. Remember that dressing sets are required and these include either arubber or neoprene gasket, with bolts.
Steelpipe New Zealand can offer advice on flange specifications to assist accuracy.Common flange specifications include AS 4807, AS 2129 and BS 4504.

SummaryThe requirements for installation and operation of a pipe system may dictate the useof more than one type of field joint. The type of internal lining and pipe diameter mayalso be determining factors in joint selection.
Welded joints offer integrity and create a structurally-sound pipeline. Flanges, on theother hand, are typically used to marry steel pipe to valves, pumps, meters and other
flanged accessories. Thermal stresses can be accommodated through the employmentof flexible coupling, grooved or shouldered coupling, or expansion joints. Rememberthat external corrosion protection systems must be reinstated at each joint. Cathodicprotection of any joint system can also be accommodated.

Structural & Pile Casing
Benefits of QualitySteelpipe New Zealands spiral-welded steel pipe is ideal for use in structural applications,
such as foundation work (pile casing or piling) and in wharf, bridge and buildingconstruction projects, because it offers major advantages over alternative materials.The spiral forming process produces accurately manufactured pipe that makes theproduct easy to use and, combined with high quality welding and testing, ensuresenduring dependability.
Accuracy of manufacturemeans an exceptionally straight and circular product. Thisrepresents significant advantages for jointing, and maintaining alignment when drivingin the field.
Reliabilityof the spiral-weld process ensures a totally secure weld throughout therigorous pile driving process. All pile products are manufactured using the same double-automatic submerged arc welding process employed on high-spec API pipeline. Weldintegrity can be confirmed by hydrostatic testing and the use of real-time X-ray ofwelds.
Economy.Spiral-welded steel pipe is able to support exceptionally high loads, thusreducing the quantity of piles and the amount of ancillary foundation work requiredwith other products.
Flexibility in end-preparation means that the closure plates, cone points, driving shoesand crosses are all compatible with spiral-welded steel pipe. As an alternative, pipescan be driven open-ended where minimum soil displacement is desired.
Efficient splicing on-site due to the consistent circularity of pipe ends and tighttolerances of diameters. Moreover, piles can be easily spliced to extend the pile length,which is a requirement for deep driving. Numerous combinations for jointing systems(including machine-bevelled ends, to API specifications or customer requirements)are available to guarantee fast, accurate jointing in the field. Internal welding bands,supplied loose or tack-welded into one end of the pipe, can also be employed to alignpiles for jointing and provide backing for welding.
Variable lengths can be manufactured to suit ground conditions and changingdriving depths to minimise on site welding.
Technical DataThis information is intended as a guide and provides technical data for all standardpipe sizes. Preferred diameters and wall thicknesses are detailed in the following table.Please contact Steelpipe New Zealand for alternative sizes.
Corrosion protection is an important consideration for all the above pile steelapplications, particularly in marine environments. Refer Coating Systems section forfurther information.

High-Spec Spiral Welded Linepipe To API 5L
Benefits of QualitySteelpipe New Zealands spiral-welded steel pipe is widely used throughout the world
in a variety of applications, including oil and gas pipelines (both high and low pressure).And it is more than comparable with other linepipe due to its strength, straightness,versatility, and safety in service.
Steelpipe New Zealand offers non-monogrammed high spec spiral welded pipeindependantly certified in accordance with API 5L.
Great strengthin proportion to wall thickness of any competitive product. The spiralforming process produces an extremely reliable weld which is significantly less affectedby circumferential (hoop) stress than longitudinal or seam and girth pipelines. Thelikelihood of weld failure is substantially reduced.
An inherently straighter pipedue to the method of manufacture. The spiral formingprocess does not require heat treatment, so risks of bending, distortion and weld failurefrom insufficient heat treatment are eliminated. The end product is improved pipelinealignment and reliability.
Flexibility of productpermits the pipe to be used in difficult terrain.The pipe is secureagainst the normal settling and movement of unstable soils and is able to withstandabnormal internal and external shocks without distorting to the extent of conventionalproducts.
Accuracy of manufacturemeans high levels of circularity (or roundness) combined
with tight diameter tolerances. The circularity of spiral-welded steel pipe, together withcircumferential tolerances that are 50 percent tighter than the API 5L specifications,represents significant advantages when jointing in the field.
Versatilityof the spiral forming process enables a wide range of diameters and steelgauges to be manufactured from one common feed stock, which encourages pricecompetitiveness for small run pipelines of varying diameter and gauge.
Reliability and operating safety.The spiral-welded steel pipe provides a high levelof operating safety. The spiral forming process induces material working whichincreases the tensile strength of the steel by approximately eight percent (which is not
commonly accounted for in the design). In deliberate destructive testing, the failureis typically contained within a single helix length. Its resistance to crack propagationresults from the rolling direction and grain flow of the material. Pipes can be custommade to meet clients needs.

Benefits of QualitySteelpipe New Zealands product is used universally in a variety of applications including
water and sewage transmission and outfalls.
In recent years, spiral-welded steel pipes market share has continued to develop overother products due to its inherent toughness, flexibility, versatility, safety in service andcompetitive cost.
Greater strength in proportion to wall thickness of any competitive product. Thepipe operates safely at higher pressures and its strength provides distinct handling andlaying advantages in complex locations.
Durability and longlife. In New Zealand, steel pipelines dating back to the early1900s, and without the benefit of modern corrosion protection systems, are still inservice in major city water supply systems. Recent major advances in steel fabricatingtechniques and coatings development ensure the useful life of todays steel pipe hasbeen significantly lengthened.
Flexibility of product permits the pipe to be used in difficult terrain where othermaterials either cannot be employed or installed only with great difficulty and addedexpenditure. The pipe is secure against the normal settling and movement of unstablesoils and is able to withstand abnormal internal and external shocks (surge, waterhammer, earthquakes and extreme temperature changes) without cracking, shatteringor leaking.
Ease of layingdue to longer pipe lengths (up to 12 metres), which means less jointing,greater reliability and cost-effectiveness.
Accuracy of manufacturemeans a straight and circular product. This representssignificant advantages when matching pipes in the field for welding, jointing and theconnection of fittings. The New Zealand Standard for water pipe (NZS 4442), createdwith the spiral forming process in mind, and has 50 per cent tighter tolerance onstraightness and circularity than the equivalent American Petroleum Institute linepipestandard.

High carrying capacitymeans pipelines can cope with increasing demand. Correctlylined and coated spiral-welded pipe, being resistant to corrosion or encrustation,
can be relied on to maintain its carrying capacity longer than alternative materials. Inaddition, a wide safety margin is engineered into the spiral-welded steel pipe, enablingcapacity to be increased (by boosting the pressure) while still remaining within thedesigned safety limits.
Reliabilityof spiral-welded steel pipe enables the pipeline to do the job for which itwas designed. The spiral forming process produces an extremely reliable weld which issignificantly less affected by circumferential (hoop) stress than a longitudinally weldedseam. In deliberate destructive testing, the failure is typically through rupture of thesteel as opposed to the weld seam, and is usually contained within one helical seam.
An additional benefit of the spiral forming process is its ability to increase the tensilestrength of the steel by approximately eight percent. This additional safety margin isnot accounted for in design calculations, and dramatically reduces pipeline risks interms of unanticipated internal or external loads.

Water & Wastewater Specifications
This information is intended as a guide to assist in the preparation of specifications forspiral-welded steel pipe in water and sewage applications.
WeldingAll spiral-welded steel pipes are manufactured using an automatic double submergedarc welding process.
Steel Pipe DiameterSteelpipe New Zealand currently manufactures a standard range of pipes from aminimum of 121mm OD to 1,965mm OD by the spiral forming process. However,larger pipe diameters can be supplied using alternative manufacturing techniques.
NB: Because the flexibility of the spiral forming process allows for the manufacture ofnon-standard diameters, wall thicknesses and lengths, customers with specificrequirements are encouraged to contact Steelpipe New Zealand staff to discuss theirspecific needs.
Steel ProductThe steel utilised in the manufacture of Steelpipe New Zealands spiral-welded pipecomplies with the following standard or its equivalent:

Water & Wastewater Fittings
The wide range of design options made possible by the spiral forming process providesthe means to solve almost any problem involving fittings and specials. The design andfabrication of pipe layouts, especially intricate ones, is greatly enhanced by the use ofstandardised dimensions along the pipe centre line.
The details and dimensions for several types of fittings and specials are detailed inTable Water.1, and are in accordance with NZS 4442:1988. For economic reasons, andinstallation advantages specials can often be welded directly into pipes thus reducingthe amount of field welding required.

Recommended Maximum Working Pressures & Hydrostatic TestPressures for Mild Steel PipePrior to being lined or coated, all spiral-welded pipes for water, high-spec and generalapplications are hydrostatically tested in accordance with the specified standard. Asan example, the New Zealand Standard (NZS 4442) requires a test pressure sufficientto induce a circumferential (hoop) stress of 75 percent of the minimum specified yieldstress of the steel from which the pipe is manufactured.
Steelpipe New Zealand suggests an extreme limit of 700 metres head or approximately7.0 MPa as the maximum test for smaller diameter pipes, even if the formula indicatesa higher pressure (theoretically).
When calculating the maximum recommended working pressure, bear in mind that aconservative value of 50 percent of the specific minimum yield stress has been utilised.A figure of 60 percent may be adopted, but only if the pipe is subject to internalpressure and not any other load.
The above is a guideline only.
Hydrostatic TestingThe following table details the maximum recommended test pressures for spiral-weldedpipe, using steel coil that complies with the New Zealand Standard (NZS 4442). Thetables maximum recommended pressures are based on the following format:
a) Column A: Test pressure based on a circumferential stress of 75 percent of theminimum yield stress of the steel.
b) Column B: Working pressure based on a circumferential stress of 50 percent of theminimum stress of the steel.

Formula 5:Calculate the maximum span distance:
Key: S=maximum span in metres
This calculation gives the span and the deflection for a pipe at capacity with freshwater, based on 120 degree support saddles. The restrictive factor for span distance isthe compressive strength of concrete lining, which is limited to 34.5MPa (5000psi) inFormula 5.

Steelpipe New Zealand is able to specifically tailor the packaging of spiral-welded steelpipe to suit the type of pipe that is being delivered (plain steel or coated and lined) and
the method of transport adopted (road, rail or sea freight).
Road TransportationThe most popular transportation option is by road and Steelpipe New Zealand hasgeneral procedures for each type of product. Typically pipes are packaged into packs
constrained by either weight or volume.
Plain SteelTimber is laid across the truck and the outer pipes are secured with wedges andwebbing straps (loadbinders). This format is repeated with each subsequent layer.
Coated SteelThis product is loaded and packaged in a similar format to plain steel, but each layer issupported by individual wedges.
In addition, rubber padding is utilised to ensure that the coated surface does not come
into contact with the timber packing.
Sea FreightWhen freighting over water, timber is once again utilised but pipes are packaged into abreak-bulk unit. The size of the unit is determined by the specific dimensions of thepipe being transported. The heavily strapped and dunnaged unit is typically no morethan 2.4 metres wide by 2.4 metres high and 12 metres in length. Units will not weighmore than 25 metric tonne.

Transportation
Protect the Pipe and CoatingAll dunnage, supports and restraints in contact with pipe surfaces should be coveredor wrapped with material suitable to prevent chafing and shock damage during transit.The recommended skid protection is Polyken mechanical resistant tape or mediumdensity jandal rubber.
For a standard 12 metre pipe, four lengths of dunnage should be utilised per layer. Onelength should be placed approx 1 metre from each pipe end and then evenly spacedin between.
The width of the dunnage must provide sufficient support to protect the pipe coating.A minimum width of 150mm is required.
Wedges should be used to separate pipes in the same row space so that they do nottouch.
Secure the LoadAll pipes and fittings must be secured by straps to prevent movement during transitand in compliance with all local and regional regulations on load restraint.
Securing loads for transport must comply with all local Transport Authority regulations.
The load should be strapped securely using webbing straps with a minimum lashingcapacity of 2000kg. Chains should not be used.
The strapping should be securely anchored with approved ratchet type devices.
Handling and Installation continued

Unloading and Handling
Personnel involved in unloadingand handling should wearpersonal protection equipmentsuch as hard hat, safety shoes,safety glasses, safety vest andother equipment as required bythe Occupational Health andSafety Act and in accordance withsite safety rules.
Attention to the followingitems improves efficiency of the
operation, maximises safety andminimises risk of damage.
Steel pipes and fittings are not susceptible to breakage, but poor handling can result indamaged coatings and/or linings and damage to the pipe ends.
Damage to pipe components may be caused by:
Inadequate support and restraint during transportation to site Improper use of handling equipment Use of unsuitable lifting equipment
Incorrect site storage Incorrect handling of load Unloading on uneven or sloping ground
Before unloadingChoose and prepare suitable pipe storage sites along the pipeline route. If possible,select unloading and storage areas which are clear of overhead power lines.
Make sure the truck is on level ground before releasing the straps.
Unloading
Immediately upon receipt, all items should be visually examined for damage to:
The pipe itself (particularly the ends) The internal lining The external coating
All repair work should be carried out promptly.
Unload the truck evenly to keep it stable.

Lifting operationsAll lifting operations must meet legal and occupation, health and safety requirements
applicable to the site.
It is the clients responsibility to ensure suitably qualified personnel operate handlingequipment.
When lifting pipes it is recommended that an experienced rigger is used.
Lifting should be done smoothly without sudden jerking motions. Pipe movementshould be controlled by use of guide ropes and care taken not to knock other pipes orequipment.
Lifting and placing must be carried out so that the stability of the pipe stack, crane orvehicle is maintained.
When conditions are suitable, forklifts may be used. The contact surfaces of the forksmust be protected with minimum 10mm thick medium density jandal rubber.
Choosing equipmentWhen choosing lifting equipment consider: Pipe weight Type of stacking Outreach Site conditions
AccessoriesSlingsA spreader bar and/or other approved lifting device can be used in addition to slings,for use in the handling of pipes or pipe packs. See figure below.
Slings and lifting devices must comply with and be used in accordance with theappropriate safety requirements. Slings or lifting devices should offer protection againstdamage to externally coated pipes. This applies when lifting and when withdrawingthe sling from under the pipe, once it has been bedded.
Synthetic webbing slingsReversed eye, synthetic webbing slings or round slings (of endless fibre construction)are recommended for use in the handling of pipes. Woven synthetic slings must besheathed to prevent penetration of the fabric by grit, abrasion and deterioration. Theslings are fitted to the pipe using a choker hitch and in this configuration the sling israted to the SWL limit marked on the webbing.
Hooks / chainsHooks or chains should not be used for lifting pipes or fittings.

Stacking and Storage
Storage areaThe storage area should: Have a firm foundation for pipe stacks and vehicle operation Have a suitable access for road vehicles Be free of overhead power lines wherever possible
Pipe supportCoated pipes should be at all times supported clear of the ground. Beware of protrudingrocks and uneven ground.
The pipe should be supported at two locations approx 2 metres from the end of eachpipe end.
It is recommended that pipes be supported on sand or sawdust filled bags or soilmounds. The supports should be positioned to ensure that each pipe is stable andcannot roll off the support. For long term storage, soil mounds should be protectedfrom erosion.
The entire pipe must be kept clear of the ground to protect the coating from damage.
Stacking heights for long term storagePipes 508 mm OD and larger should be stored in a single layer only. Pipes less than 508mm OD may be stacked three high.
Medium density jandal rubber lined dunnage with a minimum width of 150mmshould be used to separate layers.

Storage of Concrete Lined PipesMinor cracking is common and quite acceptable for pipes conveying potable water.
These cracks will close and heal through autogenous healing.
Autogenous healing is a natural process that allows cracks in concrete lined pipes toclose and heal on exposure to water.
When pipes are to be stored for more than a few weeks in hot, dry conditions,precautions should be taken such as end capping (to reduce airflow and thus rate ofcracking) and adding water to the pipes (to minimise cracking).
Long Term Storage of Tape Coated PipesPolyken Synergy Coating is a polyethylene product and should be buried as a soon aspossible.
It is recommended that stored pipes be covered for protection from direct sunlight.
As with all plastic and thermoplastic materials they will degrade with exposure toUV radiation. In regards to the length of time that a polyethylene coating may beexposed to sunlight and UV irradiation is generally 6-12 months. This is a general ruleof understanding within the plastics industry.

Bedding
Why beddingBedding evenly supports the pipe andprotects the external coating.
Bedding should be spread evenly along thetrench with socket holes or welding stationsprovided at each joint. The socket holesshould be deep enough to stop the socketof the pipe bearing any weight. Weldingstations should also be big enough to allowwelding and wrapping at welded joints.
Bedding should be compacted to ensure afirm, even base for pipe laying.
What to use for beddingBedding should be granular material such as sand with no stones or sharp objects.The maximum particle size should not exceed 7 mm. If the natural soil is not suitable,bedding should be brought in. A recommended bedding material is PAP 7.
The bedding layer under the pipe should be at least 75-100 mm thick when compactedas shown in the following diagram.
Allowance for sling withdrawalConsideration should be given to making a small depression in the bedding whereslings used to lift the pipe will come to rest after lowering and jointing. This will allowslings to be withdrawn from under the pipe more easily.

Laying and Jointing of PipeThe recommended method for joint assembly is to pull the pipe being laid into the
socket of the previously laid pipe, using anchor slings and winch blocks or pullers.
PreparationIf a pipe has a threaded test hole (socket end) ensure that when the pipe is laid thetest hole is at the top of the pipe. This will ensure that an air leak tightness test can becarried out.
The first two pipes should be used as trial to determine the straight line entry. This isthe amount that the spigot will fit into the socket. When the pipes are fully fitted markthe socket where the spigot ends. Pull the pipes apart and measure the distance thatthe spigot has entered the socket this is the straight line entry. This distance can nowbe used on subsequent pipes to ensure full entry of spigot.
With the puller load on, deflect the pipe to the required grade and direction on thesand bedding. Hemispherical joints have a deflection of 3 degrees
The puller load must not be released until sufficient backfill is placed around the pipeto ensure that joint movement will not occur.
Care should be taken when withdrawing slings from under bedded pipes to avoiddamage to the Polyken Synergy/YGIII from sling eyes or hooks.
Internal Lining Reinstatement
For pipe sizes 600 mm OD and larger the field lining reinstatement is done from insidethe pipe. The gap between cement mortar linings at joints should be filled with cementmortar so that the lining is continuous.
For pipes sizes smaller than 600 mm OD the lining reinstatement needs to be doneprior to the pipes being jointed. Run a smooth bead of epoxy mortar against the endof lining (approx 20mm wide and to ensure a smooth and continuous lining thejointshould be pigged to remove surplus epoxy mortar prior to fully welding the joint.
Welding the JointsThe welding of the joint is the responsibility of the welder, hence no specific information
is detailed here. However, the fillet weld would be expected to be at least equivalent tothe thickness of the pipe wall thickness.
All welding should be carried out in accordance with the applicable welding standards.
