7/2011 15060 - 3 The single gasket push-on pipe shall be shipped in standard 18-foot or 20-foot lengths, but not both. The restrained single-gasket push-on joint pipe shall be shipped in standard 18 or 20-foot lengths as specified above or fabricated lengths as noted in each order. At least two lengths of each size of single gasket push-on pipe furnished under each order shall be tested with circumferential gauges to insure that the pipe may be cut at any point along its length and have an outside diameter which will be within the manufacturer's standard design dimensions and tolerances for plain pipe. These lengths shall be identified with an easily distinguished, painted marking, longitudinally along the full length of the pipe. C. FITTINGS Fittings Conforming with ANSI/AWWA C110/A21.11-98 (Water & Sewer Use) Restrained push-on joint fittings shall be cast ductile iron for use with ductile-iron pipe as specified above. Standard mechanical joint, push-on joint and flanged joint fittings shall also be ductile iron for use with ductile-iron pipe as specified above. Cast ductile-iron fittings in the 3-inch through 24-inch size range shall be pressure rated at 350 psi, minimum; (except flange-joint fittings shall be rated at 250 psi, minimum); and in the 30-inch through 48-inch size range shall be pressure rated at 250 psi, minimum. All fittings with mechanical joints, flange joints and push-on joints shall conform to ANSI/AWWA Standard C110/A21.10-98, "Ductile-Iron and Gray-Iron Fittings, 3 In. Through 48 In., for Water and Other Liquids". In addition, fittings with mechanical joints and push-on joints shall conform to ANSI/AWWA Standard C111/A21.11-00, "Rubber-Gasket Joints for Ductile-Iron Pressure Pipe and Fittings". The weight of fittings, shall be as given in ANSI/AWWA C110/A21.11-98 for ductile-iron fittings. The weight of mechanical joint fittings shall be as established in Tables 3 through 12. The weight of flanged joint fittings shall as established in Tables 13 through 20. Fittings Conforming with ANSI/AWWA C153/A21.53-00 (Water & Sewer Use) All fittings shall be cast ductile-iron for use with ductile-iron pipe as specified above. Fittings in the 3-inch through 24-inch size range shall be pressure rated at 350 psi, minimum; 30- inch through 48-inch size range shall be pressure rated at 250 psi, minimum; and in the 54- inch through 64-inch size range shall be pressure rated at 150 psi, minimum (except for those fittings such as plugs, caps, and sleeves which are normally rated at a higher pressure). No flanged fittings or mixtures of flanged with other end type fittings will be allowed in the range of 3-inch through 48-inch since they are not covered in the AWWA Standard. Flanged fittings conforming with and covered by this standard are allowed in sizes, 54, 60 and 64-inch. In conformance with the standard, 54, 60 and 64-inch flanged tees, crosses and reducers with outlets of smaller dimension as listed in ANSI/AWWA C153/A21.53-00 are permitted. All fittings with mechanical joints, flange joints and push-on joints shall conform to ANSI/AWWA Standard C153/A21.53-00, "Ductile-Iron Compact Fittings for Water Service". In addition, fittings with mechanical joints and push-on joints shall conform to ANSI/AWWA Standard C111/A21.11-00, "Rubber-Gasket Joints for Ductile- Iron Pressure Pipe and Fittings" except as otherwise allowed in C153. Mechanical joint glands shall be ductile-iron only. Since the C153 Standard provides only minimum dimensions, fully detailed drawings of all fittings proposed shall be supplied by the manufacturer with his bid. The tabulated nominal weight of each size and type of fitting shall also be supplied by the manufacturer for all items
