Testing Procedure. The low pressure air test is a test which determines the rate at which air under pressure leaves an isolated section of pipeline. This rate indicates the presence or absence of pipe damage and/or pipe of poor quality. The test procedure is described as follows. (1) The section of pipe to be tested is plugged at each end. The ends of all branches, laterals, and wyes which are to be included in _ the test are sealed or plugged. All plugs shall be carefully bY~aced to prevent slippage and blowout due to internal pressure. One of the plugs pro- vided must have an inlet tap or other provision for connecting an air hose, ~' '~' (2) Connect one end of the air hose to the inlet tap on the plug and connect the other end of the hose to portable air control equipment, '~r The air control equipment shall consist of pressure gages and valves used to control the rate at which the air flows to the test section and to monitor k the air pressure inside the pipe. The air control equipment can then be connected to a source of air supply such as a portable air compressor, (3) After the air hoses are properly connected, inject air into the test section. Monitor the air pressure so that the pressure inside the pipe does not exceed five (5) pounds per square inch, gage, (psig), (4) When the pressure inside the test section reaches 4.0 psig, throttle the air supply so that the internal pressure is maintained .-. between 4.0 and 3.5 psig for at least two (2) minutes. These two (2) minutes allow time for the temperature of the air to come to equilibrium with the pipe walls, ~° ~r (5) After the temperature has been allowed to stabilize for' ^ the two (2) minute period, the air supply should be disconnected and the , pressure allowed to decrease to 3.5 psig. At 3.5 psig a stopwatch is to be started to determine the time required for the pressure to drop to 2.5 psig. "' The section of pipeline being tested shall be considered acceptable if the time required in seconds for the pressure to decrease from 3.5 to 2.5 psi is equal to or greater than that shown in Table 1. D. Measurement and Payment. .. Measurement and payment for the gravity sewer pipe shall be based upon the unit price per linear foot as set forth in the Bidder's Proposal - Schedule of Items and Prices for the type and size of pipe required and installed. The pipe will be measured from center to center of the manholes ^ or to the end of the pipe. The unit price per linear foot shall be considered as full payment for ,,,, the pipe, in place. ,~ r:.
