Construction of buried PE water supply pipe

Construction of buried PE water supply pipe 1. The burial depth shall be comprehensively determined according to the permafrost depth, use requirements, burial conditions and other factors, usually at least 0.3m below the deepest freezing line, and shall meet the following conditions: when the pipe diameter de<= 50mm, the minimum burial depth of the pipe top shall be 0.5m; However, when the pipe diameter de>50, the minimum burial depth of the pipe top is 0.7-1.0m;2. The trench bottom shall be continuous and flat, and there shall be no gravel, hard blocks and other protrusions on the surface of the trench bottom. 3. The pipeline can be laid directly on the undisturbed original soil foundation. If the foundation is rock or rock, 0.1~0.15m thick fine soil or sand cushion shall be laid. Where uneven settlement of the pipeline system can be caused, the foundation shall be treated or other anti-settlement measures shall be taken .. 4. In the pipeline system, separate foundations shall be established and fixed at the joints of valves, fire hydrants or other auxiliary materials and facilities, and anti-settlement measures shall be taken. 5. When slotting, the width of the trench bottom is generally 0.3m plus the outer warp. If the soil quality is good, when the trench depth is within 2m and within 3m without support, the width shall be added by 0.5m and 0.2m; For trenches with a depth of more than 3m, the width of the trench bottom shall be increased by 0.2m for every 1m of deepening. When the trench is supported by sheet piles, the trench depth is within 2m or 3m, and the trench width shall be increased by 0.4m or 0.6m 6 respectively. when the trench is excavated, the undisturbed soil 0.2m ~ 0.3m above the design elevation of the trench bottom shall be retained, disturbance shall be prohibited, and manual cleaning shall be applied before paving, but it is generally not suitable to dig below the design elevation of the trench bottom. if local over excavation is required, sand or original soil shall be filled and layered compaction shall be required. When the 7 ditch is buried with hard objects such as stones that are not suitable to be removed or the foundation is rock, semi-rock or rock, it shall be removed to 0.15~0.2m below the design elevation, and then sand shall be laid and compacted. The 1PE pipe can be connected to the ground in advance to form a long pipeline. After each welded joint is fully cooled, it will tend to be dragged to the edge of the ditch and placed in it. The maximum drag safety length that the pipeline can bear depends on the size of the pipeline and the conditions of the construction site. Generally, the maximum drag safety distance for small pipelines is 100m, and the larger is 50m. For flat laying, pipelines below DN100 can be slightly bent in summer, & pipelines above 110 can resist thermal stress due to sufficient soil resistance and do not need to reserve pipe length. When the pipeline is buried in a swamp or river bottom, when the backfill soil is too soft to resist the pipeline stress, the two ends of the pipeline are anchored to protect the joint. The paving distance depends on the surface area, specific gravity and the average pressure and friction coefficient between the pipelines. When 3PE pipeline is laid, the allowable bending radius of the pipeline shall meet the following regulations: when there are bearing joints and other auxiliary equipment on the pipe section, it shall not be less than 125D. Pipe nominal diameter D(mm) allowable bending radius (mm)D<= 5030D50
