This Part of this European Standard specifies the requirements for inspection and testing of industrial piping as defined in EN 13480-1:2017 to be performed on individual spools or piping systems, including supports, designed in accordance with EN 13480-3:2017 and EN 13480-6:2017 (if applicable), and fabricated and installed in accordance with EN 13480-4:2017.

This document specifies the requirements for steel products used for industrial piping and supports. For some metallic materials other than steel, such as spheroidal graphite cast iron, aluminium, nickel, copper, titanium, requirements are or will be formulated in separate parts of this document. For metallic materials which are not covered by a harmonized material standard and are not likely to be in near future, specific rules are given in this part or the above cited parts of this document.

This document specifies a test method for determining the long-term compression strength for a specified period on boxes made of thermoplastics materials for non-pressure underground conveyance and storage of non-potable water. The document is applicable for boxes which maintain their linear behaviour over the specified period.

This document specifies a test method for determining the compressive creep behaviour of boxes made of thermoplastic materials intended for use in a modular system for non-pressure underground conveyance and storage of surface water.

This document gives the definitions and specifies the minimum requirements for injection moulded, extruded and thermoformed thermoplastics cuboid shaped boxes, including integral components, used in underground systems for infiltration, attenuation and storage of surface water (e.g. storm water) and manufactured from polypropylene (PP) or unplasticized polyvinylchloride (PVC-U). Product properties are determined by a combination of material specifications, design and manufacturing process. These boxes are intended for buried underground use, e.g. in landscape, pedestrian or vehicular traffic areas. A box can either be factory assembled, or site assembled from different components. These boxes are intended to be used as elements in a modular system where the manufacturer states in the documentation how the components are assembled to create a complete infiltration, attenuation or storage system. NOTE Non load bearing component(s) can be manufactured by various methods e.g. extrusion, injection moulding, rotational moulding, thermoforming and low-pressure injection moulding.

This Part of this European Standard specifies the requirements for fabrication and installation of piping systems, including supports, designed in accordance with EN 13480-3:2017.

This document specifies the requirements for three types of general-purpose textile-reinforced rubber water hose with an operating temperature range of −25 °C to +70 °C and a maximum working pressure of up to 2,5 MPa (25 bar). These hoses are not intended to be used for conveyance of potable (drinking) water, for washing-machine inlets, as firefighting hoses, for special agricultural machines or as collapsible water hoses. These hoses can be used with additives which lower the freezing point of water.

This document compiles a vocabulary of terms, with their definitions, applied in the field of district heating and district cooling systems.

In general terms, Miner’s rule is a common approach to calculate how the accumulation of a specific load that varies over time effects the time until failure. This international standard specifies the application of Miner’s rule for calculating the design time until failure of plastics pipes and piping systems of plastics materials under varying, but known, load conditions. Miner’s rule can also be applied reciprocally to calculate the tolerable load levels along a desired design time. This international standard specifies particularly the application of Miner’s rule to calculate stress or pressure regimes, respectively, that are tolerable during a targeted design time for plastics or composite pipes. Further, the application of Miner’s rule on the effect of accumulated damage on polyolefins caused by oxidative attack under varying temperatures and times on the design life is specified. It is necessary to apply Miner's rule to each failure mechanism separately. Thus, for mechanical failure due to internal pressure, other failure mechanisms, such as oxidative or dehydrochlorinative degradative failure mechanisms, are to be neglected (assuming, of course, no interaction). A material may be used only when it is proven to conform to all failure mechanism criteria. NOTE Miner's rule is an empirically based procedure and is only a first approximation to reality.
