[9]
3.3.1 Where the existing pipe line is to be taken out, this shall be done with utmost possible care so
as not to damage, in any way, the pipes and fittings. In case it is found that the damage have
been done during the process of taking out due to negligence on the part of the contractor, the
cost for restoration of the same will be recovered from the contractor at the rates as fixed by
the Engineer-in-Charge.
3.3.2 The taken out old pipes and specials which will be found suitable for re-use will have to be
cleaned, thoroughly painted with town coats of approved paint inside and outside to the
satisfaction of the Engineer-in-Charge. The contractor shall complete the new connections with
pipe line by drilling, tapping the new mains including supplying, fitting and fixing the specials
as directed by the Engineer-in-Charge.

ii) A thin film of lubricant shall be applied on the bulb seating inside socket.
iii) The gasket shall be wiped clean, flexed and then placed in the socket with the bulb
towards the back of the socket. The groove in the gasket must be located on the
retaining bead in the socket and the retaining heal of the gasket firmly bedded in its
seating.
iv) It is necessary to ensure that the gasket fits evenly around the whole circumference
removing any bulges, which would prevent the proper entry of the spigot end.
v) A thin film of lubricant shall be applied to the inside surface of the gasket which will be
in contact with entering spigot.
vi) The pipe, which is to be jointed, shall be supported centrally by the tackles used for
laying. The spigot of the pipe must be aligned and entered carefully into the adjacent
socket until it makes contact with the gasket.
vii) The spigot end then shall be forced in compressing the gasket while passing through.

[11]
4.1.1 While unloading, pipes and specials shall never be dropped loose on ground or road surface.
Unloading shall be done on timber skids with steading rope so as to avoid the pipes to bump
hard against the surface or other pipes.
4.1.2 Before lowering pipe inside the trench, all excess coating materials if any, shall be removed
from the surface. The pipes shall be lowered inside the trench by means of rope, chain-pulley
block or derrick or crane, as the case may be, depending upon the size of the pipe and be rung
with a light hammer while the pipe is in suspension to detect crack, if any.
4.1.3 Cutting of pipes, where necessary, shall be done in neat and workman like manner by using
either gas cutter or any approved type of mechanical means so as to leave a smooth face
suitable for electric arc welding for jointing purpose.
4.1.4 Every precaution shall be taken to prevent entry of any foreign material while the pipes are
placed in line within the trench. The contractor shall also take all precautions to prevent
floating of pipes inside the trench.

Property Requirement
Min. Max
Pipe surfaces shall be thoroughly cleaned and dried before the primer is applied and
shall be free of dirt, grease, oil rust, scale or other foreign matter. The pipe shall be cleaned by
any one of the following, mutually agreed, methods :
c) Mechanical cleaning.
Before sand or shot grit blasting; all oil and grease, if present on the metal surface, should be
removed by using a suitable solvent and clean rags. The use of dirty, silly rags should not be
permitted. All other foreign matter which cannot be removed by blast cleaning should be
removed by suitable means. The surfaces then should be thoroughly cleaned by blast cleaning
and the operation should remove all scale, rust or any other superficial impurities from the
surfaces exposing base metal presenting a grayish metta appearance except that slight shadows,
streaks or discolouration caused by rust stains or mill scale exides need not be removed,
blasted surfaces which rust before the priming coat has applied should be cleaned of this
superficial rust by wire brushing or emery papering. If the rust formation is heavy, that if the
pipes have been exposed overnight without priming, the same can be reblasted once again.
One coat of primer shall be applied on blast cleaned surface by brush or spray to achieve wet
film thickness as recommended by the manufacturer. In case the surface is wet during
application of primer the surface should be made dry. The primer shall be allowed to become
tacky dry prior to tape application. Primer and tape shall be furnished by the same
manufacturer.
Tape application should follow primer application as soon as the primed pipe surface is tacky.
The primer and tape application should not be done in case of dusty / windy weather or during
rains. Primed surface should not be exposed to atmosphere for very long duration.
a) One layer of coaltar tape coating with 2 mm thickness on the surface of primed pipe
after touch dry.
b) Second coat of fast drying synthetic primer by brush or spray on 1 st layer of tape
coating to provide complete weatability of the surface for application of second layer
of tape.
c) Second layer of coal tar tape coating with 2 mm thickness on the surface of primed pipe
after touch dry.
The tape is warmed slightly on one side with either a blow lamp or a gas flume to soften the
coating compound. Care should be taken so that the compound does not melt. The tape shall be
wrapped spirally maintaining tension around pipe surface. There shall be a minimum of 12 mm
overlap per single wrap.
5.3.4 TESTS
a) Adhesion Test
The temperature of the tape and pipe to be tested shall be between 10°C and 27°C. If
the temperature is outside this rage, hot or cold water shall be poured over the test area
until this temperature range is attained.
A test area shall be selected where the tape is smooth for 15 cm in longitudinal
direction of the tape.
Two knife cuts that are 15 cm long and 5 cm apart shall be made through the tape.
A flat blade shall be used to pry up 5 cm. This 5 cm flap of fabric shall be grasped
firmly in one hand and shall be pulled with a quick motion in the direction of the
remaining 10 cm of the 15 cm knife out.
The adhesion is satisfactory if the tape tears at the point of stripping or the fabric strips
from the underlaying coal tar component, leaving exposed not more than 10 percent of
the primer or metal.
b) Holiday Test
All coated and wrapped pipes shall be tested with an approved high voltage holiday detector
equipped with a positive signaling device to indicate any faults, holes, breaks or conductive
particles in the protective coating.
[16]
The applied output voltage of the holiday detector shall have a spark discharge at least twice
the thickness of the coating to as sue adequate inspection voltage and compensate for any
variation in coating thickness.
When selection test voltage, consideration should be given to the tolerance of coating thickness
and the voltage should be selected on the basis of maximum coating thickness likely to be
encountered.
A cathodic Protection system may be used in conjunction with the appropriate coating and
wrapping system, where the soil – Resistivity is less than 5000 ohm – cm. For soil resistivity
above 5000 ohm-cum Cathodic Protection may be used in consultation with Corrosion
Engineers.
In industrial area, direct current traction systems frequently result in appreciable electrical
currents flowing through the ground. If a pipe line traverses the ground the current will enter
the pipe at one point where it affords protection, then travel along the pipe as the line of lowest
electrical resistance and eventually leave again in order to return to its source. Concentrated
corrosion occurs at the point of exist. In this case a Cathodic Protection System in conjunction
with appropriate coating and wrapping system should be used.
[17]
6.1 GENERAL
After laying and jointing, the pipeline must be pressure tested to ensure that pipes and joints
are sound enough to withstand the maximum pressure likely to be developed under working
conditions.
The field test pressure to be imposed should be not less than the maximum of the following:-
c) Sum of the maximum sustained operating pressure and the maximum surge pressure.
d) Sum of the maximum pipeline static pressure and the maximum surge pressure, subject
to a maximum equal to the work test pressure for any pipe fittings incorporated.
The field test pressure should wherever possible be not less than 2/3 work test pressure
appropriate to the class of pipe except in the case of spun iron pipes and should be applied and
maintained for at least four hours. If the visual inspection satisfies that there is no leakage, the
test can be passed.
Where the field test pressure is less than 2/3 the work test pressure, the period of test should be
increased to at least 24 hours. The test pressure shall be gradually raised at the rate of 1 Kg /
cm2 / min. If the pressure measurements are not made at the lowest paint of the section, an
allowance should be made for the difference in static head between the lowest point and the
point of measurement to ensure that the maximum pressure is not exceeded at lowest point. If a
drop of pressure occurs, the quantity of water added in order to re-establish the test pressure
should be carefully measured. This should not exceed 0.1 litre per mm of pipe diameter per
KM of pipeline per day for each 30 metre head of pressure applied.
In case of gravity pipes, maximum working pressure shall be 2/3 work test pressure.
The hydrostatic test pressure at works and at field after installation and the working pressure
for different classes of pipes are given in the Table below.
The allowable leakage during the maintenance stage of pipes carefully laid and well tested
during construction, however should not exceed:
ND √ P
QL= --------------
115
The above is applicable to spigot and socket Cast Iron pipes and A.C. pressure pipes, whereas,
twice this figure may be taken for steel and prestressed concrete pipes.

which shall be recorded by means of a Vacuum Gauge at the time of measuring discharge.
Pumping at lower rate than that of the designed yield shall not be permitted. Intermittent
pumping, instead of continuous one, shall not also be acceptable.
A tubewell shall be considered unsuccessful by the Engineer-in-Charge when during yield test;
the tubewell fails to produce specified discharge at specified drawdown. Under such
circumstances, the Engineer-in-Charge shall ask the contractor, in writing, to abandon the
tubewell and prepare the full details of the work actually done by the contractor upto the point
of ordering to abandon the tubewell. Such details of work done shall be signed jointly by the
contractor and the Engineer-in-Charge.

10.0 VALVES
10.1 GENERAL
The valves of different types are installed in water distribution pipe lines for isolation,
regulation of flow, operation and maintenance, cleaning and draining purposes.
The valves shall be as per standards laid down by the Bureau of Indian Standards
[28]
10.2 SELECTION
Selection, installation and maintenance of valves shall conform to relevant standards of the
Bureau of Indian Standards. Apart from Sluice Valve, various other types of valves are used in
pipe distribution network.
These valves shall usually be installed with spindle in vertical position. The value should be
operated to full travel of gate in every three months of avoid chances of jamming at the hours
of need.
Sluice valves shall be located at least on three sides of every cross-junction and at every
kilometer on long main. The size of Sluice Valve shall be the same as the size of the main upto
300 mm diameter. For larger diameter of main, the size of Sluice Valve may be at least 2/3 rd
the size of main as per decision of the Engineer-in-Charge.
These valves are installed to ensure outlet of air accumulated within the pipe line when the line
is in operation. Air valves also ensure entry of air when a partial vacuum is created in the line
at the time of emptying the pipe. Air valve shall be preceded by a Sluice Valve to facilitate its
isolation at the time of repair and/or maintenance.
Scour valves are installed at low points to facilitate discharge into a sump or natural drainage
channel. The size depends upon local circumstances especially upon the time in which a given
section of line is designed to be emptied and upon the resulting velocity of flow.
Butterfly valves are installed for isolation and/or flow regulation especially in large size
conduits within a properly defined system permitting flow in either direction. They are
sometimes cheaper than sluice valves and occupy less space. Butterfly valves with no sliding
parts have the advantages of ease of operation, compact size, reduced chamber and improved
closing and retarding characteristics.
[29]
Check valves, also called Non-return Valves or Reflux Valves, automatically prevent reversal
of flow in a pipeline. These are particularly useful in pumping mains when positioned near
Pumping Stations to prevent backflow, which is the root cause of Surge pressure and water
hammer, when pumps are shut down.
The purpose of installation of Zero-Velocity Valve is to arrest the forward moving water at
zero momentum i.e. when its velocity zero and before any return velocity is established. When
the forward becomes less than 25% of the maximum , the flap starts closing at the same rate as
the velocity approaches zero magnitude, water column on the upstream side of the valve is
thus prevented from acquiring a reversed velocity and taking part in creating surge pressure.
This is a suitable substitute for check valve in terms of its operation.
Consumption of the departmental materials like lead, cement, rod etc. as issued shall be
computed against corresponding contract item of work on the basis of quantities shown on the
table at page 97 and also on the basis of schedule of rates of Presidency Circle, P.W.D. & P.W.
(Roads) Department, Govt. of West Bengal subject to a variation of ± 5 (five) percent for
cement. For Steel reinforcements the variation may be permitted upto ± 10%.
[30]
1.0 INTODUCTION:
To achieve the functioning and desired success of any pipeline network system, different forms
of fittings are required to be fastened at every joint to make it leak proof. Initially, cast metallic
pipes having flanged ends were is use, which were joined by inserting lead sheet in between
the flanges. In the middle of eighteenth century, Socket & Spigot end pipe was invented and
readily accepted all over, Since then the jointing was done by cocking pig lead into the annular
space partially filled with jute yearn. In 1930, the Americans introduced Mechanical Joint
Fittings were started in use for water mains. D.I. Push-on Joint Fittings were in the field of
jointing scenario from 1970, initially up to 600 mm and after 1980 up to 1600 mm diameter.
Both Mechanical and Push-on Joint
Fittings are now in use. Push-on Joint needs only one gasket but the Mechanical Joint requires
follower gland, gasket and tee headed bolts and nuts.
The Socket & Spigot flexible joints are assembled with special type of rubber gaskets as shown
in the figure 1 & 2 below. It is done through the following steps:
a) All sorts of lumps, blisters and excess coating materials shall be removed from the socket and
spigot end.
b) The gasket is to be formed in a heart shape and inserted into the groove of the socket ensuring
that it is correctly seated.
c) Lubricant (soft soap or vegetable oil avoiding petroleum based lubricant at all cost) shall be
applied at the spigot end and face of the rubber gasket to be inserted.
d) The spigot and the socket shall be aligned property ensuring that the spigot end is beveled
avoiding sharp or square edges.
e) A suitable jointing tackle or pulling mechanism like TIRFOR is to be used after confirming the
proper position of the gasket by inserting a feeler gauge into the gap between the socket and
the spigot.
[31]
f) Deflection of the joint is to be kept within the following allowable tolerance, which may be
necessary to deflect the pipeline from a straight line either in a vertical or horizontal plane for
avoiding any obstruction or to negotiate long radius curves.
Allowable Deflection
Figure 1
[32]
In this joint applying pressure through mechanical means viz: a separate gland does the sealing.
When bolted with the pipe, the glad exerts pressure on the sealing rubber gasket and makes the
joint leak-proof. It is done through the following steps:
a) All sorts of lumps, blisters and excess coating materials shall be removed from the socket and
spigot end.
b) The follower gland and the gasket are to be placed on the spigot of the pipe.
c) Bring the fittings closure and insert the spigot into the socket ensuring that the fittings are
properly aligned.
d) Insert the nut-bolts one by one by tightening diametrically opposite bolts to the recommended
torque. In case of any leakage the bolts may be tightened further.
e) It is to be ensured that the bottom end of the follower gland presses the rubber gasket properly.
f) It is to be ensured that the joint deflections are within the allowable tolerances.
Note:- Split MJ Collar Coupling Set Includes 2 Follower Gland, 2 MJ Gasket & Required Size of Nut & Bolts.
Uses ● Helps to arrest leaks in the pipeline due to small cracks or puncture in the pipe body
These joints are self-restrained joints, which are made for working pressure ratings of 1.0 MPa
(PN 10), 1.6 MPa (PN 16), 2.5 MPa (PN 25) and 4.0 MPa (PN 40). The procedure to be
followed to make these joints is as follows:
a) The faces of the flanges are to be made free from dirt or particles of foreign matter.
b) The gasket used between flanges should be undamaged compressed fibre-board or
natural/synthetic rubber as per IS : 638.
c) Adjoining flanges are to be bolted in the correct sequence and to the appropriate torque. Four
location-bolts are to be tightened to roughly secure the adjoining flanges.
d) Remaining bolts are to be inserted and diametrically opposite bolts tightened to the
recommended torque ensuring that all bolt holes are filled.
Considering the working pressure and the flange drilling, the valves are to be carefully specified. In
India, most of the valves are with PN 10 drilling. In case the valves are specified with PN 16 or PN 25,
drilling of the flange can be matched accordingly. Normally, if nothing is mentioned about the flange
drilling, all flanges will be faced and drilled to PN 10 configuration.
[34]
The rubber gaskets used for all sorts of joints should be compatible with the fluid to be
conveyed for materials, pressure and temperature. It should not deteriorate the quality of
water or should not impart any bad taste or foul odours. For Push-on and Mechanical Joints
it should conform to IS: 5382 and for Flanged Joints IS: 638 or specially moulded good
quality flat rubber gasket conforming to IS: 5382.
Note: The wall thickness „e‟ of fittings is calculated as a function of the nominal diameter „DN‟ by
using the formula given below with the values for „K‟ in the above Table.
The mechanical properties of samples (representative of finished products) are tested for
tensile strength (Min 420 MPa), hardness (Max 230 BHN) and elongation (min 5% to verify
mechanical properties.
At the works, the DI fittings are tested to pressure as specified in ISO: 2531/BSEN:545/1995
and IS: 9523, as the following indicates:
Thrust force is created in water mains due to change of direction at bends and tees, stops at
dead ends or change in size at reducers. In order to keep the pipeline intact, several methods of
restraints are available of which most popular is the thrust block.
