HYDROSTATIC (RESTRAINED) (ASTM A-1056)

Two lengths of randomly selected hubless cast iron soil pipe were joined with an MG COUPLING, torqued to 175 inch-pounds, and the ends of the assembly were sealed with test plugs. The assembly was supported to restrain joint movement. The assemble was filled with water and the hydrostatic pressure increased in increments of 1 psi at approximately 30 second intervals until a pressure of 13 psi was reached and maintained for 30 minutes. The hydrostatic pressure was then increased to 50 psi and held for 5 minutes.
