‘Standard Specification for
Reinforced Concrete Culvert, Storm Drain,
and Sewer Pipe [Metric]
Designation: M170M-08"
ASTM Designation: C 76M-07
1. SCOPE
1 ‘This specification covers reinforce concrete pie intended to be use fr the conveyance of
sewage, industria wastes, and storm water, and for the construction of culverts.
12. ‘This specification is the metric counterpart of M 170.
Note 1—This specification is a manufacturing and purchase specification only, and does not
‘include requirements for bedding, backfill, or the relationship between field load condition and the
strength classification of pipe, However, experience has shown thatthe successful performance of
this product depends upon the proper selection ofthe clas of pipe, type of bedding and backfill,
contolled manufacture in the plant, and care that installation conforms ta the cansiniction|
specifications. The owner ofthe reinforced concrete pipe specified herein is cautioned that he
‘must correlate the field requirements with the class of pipe specified and provide inspection atthe
construction site.
Note 2—Attention is called tothe specification for reinforced concrete D-load culvert, storm
drain, and sewer pipe (M 242M/M 242),
