Petroleum Terminal Handling and Diesel Exhaust Fluid

6 Buried installations Thrust blocks: most properly bedded installations do not require thrust blocks at ambient operating temperatures. Consult Ameron for information regarding blocking of buried pipelines for your specific application. Live loads: when properly bedded in compacted sand in stable soils and provided with at least 3 ft (1 m) of cover, Bondstrand 4000 will carry H20 wheel loadings of at least 16,000 lb (7250 kg) per axle. Field testing Bondstrand 4000 piping systems are designed for hydrostatic testing at 150% of rated operating pressure. Pneumatic testing is not recommended. Span lengths Recommended maximum support spacings for Bondstrand Series 4000 pipe at various operating temperatures. Values based on 0.5-inch (12 mm) deflection at midspan for fluid specific gravity = 1.0.

Single spans are supported only at the ends and are hinged or free to rotate at the supports.
