Scope:

This standard specifies the physical, mechanical and dimensional characteristics of grey-iron or ductile-iron grates, covers, frames, catch basin traps and valve boxes manufactured by casting.

These parts are primarily installed on manholes, catch basins and valve chambers of municipal sewer networks as well as on the valves of drinking water distribution lines.

Project need:

Specific information on safety must be added.
