System
Provide piping systems complete with all
necessary piping, valves, supports,
guides, drains, vents, expansion
compensation and all fittings necessary
for their safe and efficient operation.
Installation: Follow the line of walls,
ceilings, etc., and include all necessary
offsets and arrange to avoid interference
with the building or other services
regardless of whether or not these
aspects are shown on the drawings.

Plant access
General: Make adequate provision for
plant isolation and maintenance. Locate
valves and other components in ceilings
where they are easily accessible and
where access or leaks will not cause
inconvenience or risks to occupants, or
damage to water sensitive equipment.

Connections: Arrange connections to
plant to permit dismantling of the plant
without disturbing other pipes and to
permit removal of the plant without
removal of the piping. Provide union on
at least one side of each screwed valve
and screwed pipeline component
requiring removal for inspection or
maintenance. Make all connections to
plant by one of the following methods:
- Flare compression joints (up to 20mm
copper and only where there is no
vibration).
- Screwed brass unions (up to 50mm
size and for pressures up to 800kPa).

- Bolted flanges (no limitation).

General
Provide pipe anchors offsets or
expansion devices and pipe guides which
accommodate expansion and contraction,
and minimise the transmission of
vibration and noise to building
structures. Locate anchors and guides at
equal distances on each side of
expansion devices. Weld or securely
clamp anchors to bare pipe. If limitations
in the strength of structures preclude the
use of expansion devices and anchors,
arrange piping to move in lateral and
linear directions (e.g. at bends) while not
deviating from gradients.

Water pre-treatment: For steel piping,
introduce corrosion inhibiting chemicals.
Obtain chemicals from a water treatment
specialist, and use in accordance with the
specialists instructions, under the
specialists supervision. Leave pre-
treated water in the system until the
system is ready for chemical cleaning
and flushing.
Procedure: Test completed piping
systems including equipment designed to
withstand test pressures. Isolate
equipment not designed to withstand the
test pressure.
Test criteria: No loss of pressure over the
test period after taking account of
changes in ambient temperature.
Test pressures:
- Pressure piping: To AS 4041.
Other piping: Test systems at 1.5 times
the working pressure or 1 MPa,
whichever is the greater, for at least 24
hours.
