4.3.2 Bending tensile strength

4.3.5 Maximum working jacking load
The maximum working jacking load shall be calculated using the jacking strength F divided by the factors of
J
safety for clay pipes used in static calculations for the jacking technique used.
NOTE 1 Factors of safety are normally agreed between manufacturers, designers, contractors and clients as
appropriate.
NOTE 2 The maximum working jacking load at main and intermediate jacking stations for jacking pipes with angular
deflectable joints is considered as the standard case with a continuously distributed stress value σ, applied at the
0
theoretical, centrally acting resultant of the jacking force, where the stress ratio is modified by the eccentric action of the
jacking load, if the resultant acts outside of the centre of the cross section. Eccentric action is identifiable by the opening of
the joints on one side of the pipe. For deviations from the planned direction and at planned cornering, measurement of the
deviation of individual joints from the centre should be taken into account and the calculation of the maximum working
jacking load adjusted.
Where the conditions of use are known, jacking pipes can additionally be marked with the result of the
standard calculation of the maximum working jacking load.
4.3.6 Fatigue strength under cyclic load
Where the resistance to fatigue under cyclic loads is required, it shall be demonstrated by testing in
accordance with EN 295-3:2012, Clause 11, when test pieces shall not fail.
4.4 Watertightness
When pipes or pipe sections are tested in accordance with EN 295-3:2012, Clause 12, the water addition W
15
2
needed to maintain the pressure of 50 kPa (0,5 bar) shall not exceed 0,04 l/m of internal pipe surface area
and shall show no visible leakage.
If pipes are required to withstand continuous working under low pressure, the test pressure and water addition
W shall be declared.
15
4.5 Airtightness
Pipes and pipe sections shall be tested in accordance with EN 295-3:2012, Clause 16. The barrels of the
pipes shall be tested under positive pressure (using one of the methods LA, LB, LC or LD) given in Table 6 or
negative pressure (using either method LCU or LDU) given in Table 7. The measured change in pressure ∆p
from an initial air pressure p shall not be greater than the values given in Table 6 or Table 7 for the
0
appropriate test method, nominal size (DN) and testing time.
