PUTTING CLAIMS TO THE TEST
Overview of Test System and Procedures
The installation of all products used in the test was
performed by the manufacturers on the Louisiana
Tech University campus under close monitoring by
TT¢ personnel. Forty specimens each of Insituform
x Standard and Insituform
Enhanced were tested.
Each test specimen was
installed to fit snugly inside
a 1.83 m (6 ft.) long, 3065 mm
(42 in.) internal diameter,
schedule 40 steel casing
pipe. Each casing pipe was
fitted with short, bolted
pipe segments (clamshells)
at each end. {See Figure 1).
" Preparing the specimens for testing involved trim-
ming the ends flush with the clamshells, removing
the clamshelts, and cleaning the ends of the speci-
mens. This resulted in the plastic
pipe extending beyond the ends
of the steel casing pipes. The
specimens were then fitted with
end seals applied externally, span-
ning the casing pipe and plastic
pipe. (See Figure 2). The end
seals contained the water at the
prescribed pressure, which was

Material Characterization Tesis (Short. term)
supplied between the plastic and casing pipes from
a pressurized water distribution system.
At least three specimens of each product were
used for short-term buckling tests to determine
the upper pressure jimit for the long-term tests.
A regulator was used to raise the pressure on
the specimen, and the rate of load application
was kept constant until failure occurred.
For the long-term tests, each specimen was
pressurized at a controlled rate of 10 psi/minute
(69 kPa/minute) until a selected pressure was
reached, A minimum of five pressure ievels were
selected for each product to cause the specimens to
fail at various times over a 10,000-hour test period.
Specimens were monitored at least once a day
for evidence of buckling. Failures that occurred
during normal work hours were monitored
Manually, After normal work hours, failures
were detected electronically.
terial Characterizati ti
Numerous tests, including flexural modulus, flexural
strength and tensile strength, were conducted on
each product according to ASTM standards. On each
of these tests, the results found that both Insituform
products far surpassed the design values.

LONG-TERM BUCKLING BEHAVIOR
It is important that the design procedures used
for a rehabilitation product accurately predict .
the long-term structural behavior of the product.
The TIC data analysis compared the Jong-term
buckling test data to that predicted by Equation 1.
This comparison indicated that Equation 1 conser-
vatively predicts long-term hydrostatic buckling
behavior of both insituform products.

50 - PLUS YEARS DESIGN LIFE
One of the primary goals of the TTC test program
- was to evaluate the design lives of various reha-
bilitation products. This was accomplished by
comparing the 50-year extrapolated test pressure
to the design 50-year buckling pressure calculated
using Equation 1 with manufacturer's recommended
design values for E,. An Insituform design life in
excess of 50 years was contirmed.
WITHSTANDING THE TESTS OF TIME
The most rigorous, innovative and Independent
tests ever conducted on pipeline rehabilitation
products clearly demonstrates that service life
beyond 50 years can be expected with properly
designed and Installed Insituform products.
