StormPRO® & SewerPRO®

StormPRO and SewerPROVinidex StormPRO® & SewerPRO®  pipes are twin-wall, corrugated polypropylene pipes for non-pressure applications.

Utilising modern co-extrusion techniques, StormPRO®  & SewerPRO®  are manufactured with a smooth bore for optimum hydraulic performance and a corrugated outside wall for high stiffness to weight ratio. By combining the strength and toughness of advanced polypropylene materials with the structured wall design, StormPRO®  & SewerPRO®  pipes provide an environmentally sensitive, cost-effective piping system for a multitude of sewerage and drainage applications in sizes ranging from 150mm to 900mm.Please click on the the areas that you are interested in below, browse through the page or download the PDF version of the information below:

Why Choose StormPRO® and SewerPRO®?

Lower total installed cost

  • Lightweight product is easier and faster to handle and install
  • Safety – less chance of injury
  • Less heavy equipment required to lift and position pipes
  • Longer lengths meaning less joining required
  • Pipe is easy to cut
  • As pipes can be cut to any length, SewerPRO® and StormPRO®     provide more flexibility in design for different sites and conditions
  • No chamfer required
  • Strength of product and impact resistance means site handling is easier
  • Ease of jointing means faster installation

 

Strength

  • Tough corrugated outer wall provides strength and impact resistance, while smooth inner wall gives optimum hydraulic flow
  • Robust pipes can be used in almost site conditions
  • Flexible pipe gives the ability to cope with soil movement and more construction equipment traffic without cracking. More forgiving than rigid pipes
  • SewerPRO® pipes are classified SN10 with a minimum stiffness of 10,000 N/m.m. StormPRO® pipes are classified SN8 with a minimum stiffness of 8,000 N/m.m.

 

Easy to handle

  • Lightweight product makes handling and positioning pipes easier and safer. Less safety risk as pipes are lighter
  • Less heavy equipment needed to unload, handle product on site and position into trenches
  • Long lengths means less joints needed
  • Simple and effective joints means no leaks and more secure than old materials (concrete)
  • Easy to join pipes together
  • Pipes can be cut to any length required

 

Simple and effective joints means no leaks and more secure than old materials (concrete)

  • Push-fit compression rubber ring joints
  • Easy to join pipes together
  • The joint is simple, precise and reliable
  • Pipes can be cut to any length required
  • Rings do not roll and cannot be displaced
  • The rubber ring is located on the spigot in the last trough between the corrugations.
  • Leak-tightness and protection against tree-root intrusion

 

Optimum hydraulic performance

  • SewerPRO®'s smooth inner skin allows optimum hydraulic flow
  • The surface is resistant to build-up

 

Able to be used in aggressive or saline soils
in domestic or industrial applications

  • Abrasion resistance
  • SewerPRO® polypropylene pipe is resistant to corrosion by aggressive soils and substances typically found in sewage effluent, including most industrial discharges
  • Chemical resistance offers the ability to use in soils affected by salinity or other aggressive soils. This minimises soil restoration activity and costs.
  • This is a big advantage where saline soil is increasingly an issue for pipe system designers. SewerPRO® does not need to have special liners or sacrificial inner skins.
  • SewerPRO®’s chemical resistance allows it to be used in industrial sewer applications

Sensitive to the environment

  • Material-efficient production reduces the use of raw materials
  • Long life product
  • Less exfiltration than old materials – less pollution
  • Less infiltration – savings on treatment costs due to lower volumes being treated
  • Recyclable at end of life

 

Adapts to soil movements more forgiving than rigid pipes and less
environmental impact from leakage

 

  • Vinidex SewerPRO® and StormPRO® pipes are flexible. This means that as vertical loads are applied the pipe will deflect and take advantage of horizontal soil pressure to provide additional support. After initial compaction and settlement, applied vertical loads have very little effect on deflection.
  • Rigid pipes such as steel reinforced concrete pipes do not deflect and are designed to carry all applied vertical loads caused by soil and traffic. The surrounding soil provides little or no horizontal support to a rigid pipe. Notwithstanding this, proper placement and compaction of bedding material around rigid pipes is critical in minimising the load on the pipe.
  • Flexible pipes have some ability to deform without structural damage and provide designers and installers with a range of advantages. As flexible pipes transfer load through deflection, loading outside design parameters leads mostly to deformation without structural damage.
  • Overloading results in cracking of rigid pipes. Flexible pipes provide a substantial insurance for operational conditions.
  • A 2005 European study examined the issue of leaking sewers which have significant environmental consequences.

Its objective was to determine which pipe material could better fulfil the requirements of sustainability in the broadest sense – operational and environmental.

The study examined CCTV footage of approximately 1800km of buried pipes in service, limited to those pipes installed in the last 30 years. The study included concrete and clay pipes (rigid pipes) and various plastic pipes including polypropylene (flexible pipes). Infiltration and exfiltration were recognised as the principal causes of environmental impact during the service life of a sewer network.

The conclusions of the study were:

  • In service, flexible pipes perform better than rigid pipes. Flexible pipelines are significantly less likely to have defects than are rigid pipes.
  • Installation of flexible pipeline systems significantly reduces risk to the environment caused by infiltration and exfiltration*

Joint details

StormPRO® and SewerPRO® pipes have a simple and effective rubber ring joint system which is easy to assemble, leak-tight and protects against tree root intrusion. The rubber ring is located on the spigot in the last trough between the corrugations. Figure B shows the joint in cross section. For sizes DN150 to DN600, the pipe can be cut to length as required anywhere along the barrel and the same jointing system used. For pipe sizes DN750 and DN900, couplings are available for cut pipe.

Chemical resistance


StormPRO® and SewerPRO® polypropylene pipes are resistant to corrosion by aggressive soils and substances typically found in sewage effluent, including most industrial discharges. Therefore, the question of chemical resistance is likely to arise only if the pipes are used in unusual circumstances.
Chemical resistance is affected by concentration, temperature, period of contact and stress. Polypropylene is resistant to weak inorganic acids, organic acids, alcohols, ammonia and oxidising salts and has limited resistance to aliphatic hydrocarbons, esters, ketones and ethers.
Polypropylene is generally not recommended for aromatic and halogenated hydrocarbons. For more details or to check resistance to specific chemicals, refer to the Vinidex Chemical Resistance Guide (VIN 067) on our website www.vinidex.com.au/ page/technical_support.html.

 

Temperature


StormPRO® and SewerPRO® pipes have high temperature resistance. Continuous service temperatures of up to 60°C and short term applications of up to 90°C will not adversely affect the performance.

 


Weathering resistance


StormPRO® and SewerPRO® pipes are manufactured from compounds containing additives which ensure their resistance to ultraviolet light and weathering during handling and storage.

 

 

Manufacture

StormPRO® and SewerPRO® pipes incorporate the latest manufacturing technology using continuous polypropylene dual extrusion combined with a vacuum controlled corrugating process. The twin-wall structure consists of simultaneously extruded smooth inner wall and corrugated outer wall.

At the valley of each corrugation, where the inner and outer walls meet, the two surfaces are fused together for the full circumference of the pipe.

 


Standards

StormPRO® and SewerPRO® pipes are manufactured in accordance with AS/NZS 5065: "Polyethylene and Polypropylene pipes and fittings for drainage and sewerage applications", complying with the dimensional requirements of Type B pipes - ID series.
AS/NZS 5065 classifies pipes according to their minimum ring-bending stiffness in short term laboratory tests.
This is a measure of the ability of a pipe to resist deformation due to an external load. Stiffness classes are identified by an SN number where a higher number indicates greater resistance to deflection.


SewerPRO® pipes are classified as SN10 with a minimum stiffness of 10,000 N/m.m. StormPRO® pipes are classified as SN8 with a minimum stiffness of 8000 N/m.m.

 DESIGN

Hydraulic design

StormPRO® and SewerPRO® pipes are normally sized to accommodate maximum design discharge when flowing full.
The discharge rates in Figure C below for StormPRO® and SewerPRO® pipes flowing full are based on the Colebrook-White formula which is recognised by engineers throughout the world as the most accurate basis for hydraulic design over a wide range of flow conditions.

The Colebrook-White formula expresses velocity as:

In addition to friction losses in the pipeline, a pressure drop will occur due to energy loss at any change in the direction of flow or pipeline cross section. In long pipelines, these "form losses" are usually small in comparison to friction losses. However, they may be considerable in pipelines with many fittings or in short pipes such as in culvert applications, where entry and exit losses may dominate. For more information on form losses, consult the Vinidex Flow Charts (VIN015 and VIN039) http://www.vinidex.com.au/page/technical_support.html.

 

 

Choice of roughness coefficients

AS2200 - Design charts for water supply and sewerage - recommends k values in the range 0.003 to 0.015mm for clean, concentrically jointed thermoplastics pipes and AS3500.3 - National plumbing and drainage, Part 3 Stormwater drainage - specifies 0.015mm for design of plastics stormwater pipe drains for normal conditions.


However, it is important to note that factors such as slime growth and accumulation of debris can affect the selection of roughness coefficient in some circumstances.

In addition, local utilities may have preferred values for design of their systems. For flow under alternative conditions contact Vinidex or use the Vinidex Friction Loss in Uniform Fluid Flow (FLUFF) software, http://www.vinidex.com.au/page/technical_support.html.

For partial flow, consult Figure C for adjustment factors.

 

 

Structural Design

Under general gravity drainage and sewer pipe laying conditions, detailed calculations predicting pipe performance are not necessary. Following an extensive study of installed pipe performance, the European Plastic Pipe and Fitting Association (TEPPFA) concluded that final deflection of pipes was controlled by the settlement of the soil after installation. Where installation was controlled, or self-compacting granular material were used, pipe deflections were consistently low regardless of installation depth and traffic or other loads.

Where StormPRO® and SewerPRO® pipes are to be installed in normal conditions at depths up to 6m such that the depth to diameter ratio is at least 2, design calculations are not required. Simply following the recommended installation procedures will ensure that deflections are controlled. This is particularly true for installations under roadways, where the level of compaction required to prevent subsidence of the pavement also provides a highly supportive structural environment for the pipe.

For unusual conditions, or depths greater than 6 metres, design calculations may be performed in accordance with AS/NZS 2566.1. The structural design aspects of buried flexible pipes to be considered are vertical deflection, ring bending strain and buckling.

The following typical values may be used in pipe design:

INSTALLATION

General

Vinidex StormPRO® and SewerPRO® pipes are twin-wall, corrugated polypropylene pipes for non-pressure applications, and can be installed in non-trafficable and trafficable areas, including under road pavements.

Our general information for the safe installation of Vinidex StormPRO® and SewerPRO® pipes. For more detailed information refer to AS/NZS 2566.2 "Buried flexible pipelines: Part 2, Installation". When designed and installed correctly, Vinidex StormPRO® and SewerPRO® systems will provide continuous service in excess of 50 years.

 

Flexible pipes

Vinidex StormPRO® and SewerPRO® are flexible pipes. This means that as vertical loads are applied, the pipe will deflect and take advantage of horizontal soil pressure to provide additional support. After initial compaction and settlement, applied vertical loads have very little effect on deflection.


Rigid pipes, such as steel reinforced concrete pipes do not deflect, and are designed to carry all applied vertical loads caused by soil and traffic. The surrounding soil provides little or no horizontal support to a rigid pipe.

Notwithstanding this, proper placement and compaction of bedding material around rigid pipes is critical in minimising the load on the pipe.
Flexible pipes have some ability to deform without structural damage and provide designers and installers with a wide range of advantages.
The structural action and design methodology of flexible pipes is well understood. Their use in all buried applications and particularly under road pavements is well established throughout the world and in Australia. As flexible pipes transfer load through deflection, loading outside design parameters leads mostly to deformation without structural damage. Overloading results in cracking of rigid pipes. Flexible pipes provide a substantial insurance for operational conditions outside design parameters.

 


Handling & storage

Being manufactured from tough polypropylene, StormPRO® and SewerPRO® pipes are robust and are suitable for use in most site conditions. The pipes are relatively light weight and can generally be manhandled. Care should always be taken when pipes are loaded, unloaded, stacked or distributed on sites.
When pipes are lifted mechanically, web or rope slings should be used. Pipes should not be allowed to overhang by more than 1 metre. Transport should not have sharp projections which could cause damage to pipes. Pipes should not be dragged along the ground as this can damage the pipe, causing difficulty with jointing and testing. StormPRO® and SewerPRO® pipes should be stacked on flat firm ground, which has been cleared of debris. Pipes should be laid flat on transverse bearers at least 75mm wide at maximum 1.5m centres.

Pipe sockets should be supported so that the ends are free from loading, with sockets in each layer opposite to the previous layer. Different sizes are best stacked separately. If this is not practical, then stack with the largest pipes at the base. Framed crates must be stored timber on timber and may go up three crates but should not exceed 3m in height. If pipes are to be nested for long periods, stacks should not exceed 2m in height.

Rubber rings should be stored away from direct sunlight or weathering. Rubber rings should never be placed on the ends of pipes which are being stored.

 

Trench dimensions

Preparation

The trench should not be excavated too
far in advance of pipe laying and should
be backfilled as soon as possible.

Minimum Trench Width

The trench width should be as narrow as
is practicable, but wide enough to allow
adequate compaction of the haunch zone.

Pipes in Parallel

Where pipes are laid in parallel,
the minimum spacings between
pipelines are given in Table 13 below.

Table - 13 Minimum spacings between parallel pipelines

Nominal Diameter

(mm)

 150 225 300 375 450 525 600 750 900

Minimum Spacing

(mm)

 150 150 200 200 300 300 300 300 350
The trench should be excavated deep enough to allow for the specified grade, the required depth of underlay and the minimum cover.

 


 Allowable deflection

Minimum cover Table 14 reflects industry standards in relation to minimum depth. StormPRO® and SewerPRO® are not limited to these industry norms and designers should refer to Vinidex engineers if reduced cover is required.

 

Table 14 - Minimum depth of cover over pipe

(b) sealed carriageways

The prime influence on deflection is quality of installation, with depth of cover, pipe stiffness, and pipe material being of relatively minor importance. An intensive study of the deflection history of pipes installed under different conditions, in service for up to 25 years, has resulted in a simple pipe design graph for buried thermoplastics pipes. This graph predicts the maximum long term pipe deflection at up to 6m depth of cover (including traffic loading) for pipe of a given stiffness, with moderately compacted granular bedding material placed as follows:

  • Bedding material placed and compacted around the pipe to 87% to 94% dry density ratio, in layers of maximum 500mm thickness, to a minimum depth over the pipe of 150mm;

For greater than 6m depth of cover, improved compaction standards are required, and the bedding requirements are as follows:

  • Bedding material placed and compacted around the pipe to a minimum 94% dry density ratio, in layers of maximum 300mm thickness, to a minimum depth over the pipe of 150mm;

Where other design parameters may be critical, such as high water table, refer AS/NZS 2566.1. Vinidex recommends a design deflection limit of 10% as suggested in ISO 21138.1. For other conditions, such as increased trench widths and compaction standards, contact Vinidex for advice.

Jointing

The following procedure is recommended when joining StormPRO® and SewerPRO® rubber ring jointed pipes:

Step 1

Clean the pipe socket and spigot end, making sure both are free of any dirt and grit.      

Step 2

Install the rubber ring by stretching it over the spigot so that it sits between the first and second corrugations from the spigot end.       

 Step 3

Ensure rubber ring is evenly fitted by running fingers around the full circumference of the pipe. 

Step 4

Apply a generous amount of Vinidex jointing lubricant to the inside of the socket. Avoid getting lubricant under the rubber ring.

Step 5

Insert the leading edge of the spigot into the receiving socket. It is essential that pipes are in a straight line before attempting to make the joint.

Step 6

Do not apply jointing force directly to the socket. Insert a short piece of pipe in the socket. The short piece can be an off-cut, 50mm longer than the socket, and can be re-used.

Step 7

Apply even jointing force. Subject to pipe diameter and local conditions, use a crowbar to push on a timber block on the end of the short pipe.

Step 8

Push home the pipe until the spigot end comes into contact with the inner wall of the socket.

NOTE:

The pipe may be deflected at the joint after jointing has been completed. Any deflection should be limited to a maximum of 3°.

 
 

 

 

Cutting of pipes

StormPRO® and SewerPRO® pipes may be cut anywhere along their length as required. The cut should be made in the valley between the corrugations at right angles to the axis of the pipe using a suitable saw. A chamfer is not required.


Selection of embedment material

Embedment material for StormPRO® and SewerPRO® pipes should preferably be granular, free-flowing material. This type of embedment material requires less compactive effort to provide support for the pipe and minimise soil settlement. The most common embedment material is 5-7mm crushed rock. A typical grading is shown in Table 15.

 

Table 15 - Typical 5-7m crushed rock grading 
Sieve Size (mm) 9.5 6.7 4.75 2.36 1.18
% Passing by Mass 100 85-100 30-85 0-30 0-5
Where sand is more readily available, a typical sand grading is shown in Table 16 below. 

 

Table 15 - Typical sand grading
Sieve Size (mm) 4.75 2.36 1.18 0.6 0.3 0.15 0.075
% Passing by Mass   100 90-100 85-100 70-100 50-100 0-40 0-5
For further information refer to AS/NZS 2566.2. 

 

Placing & compacting embedment material

The bedding material should be placed and graded to invert level, and compacted as required. In conditions where the trench bottom is wet, soft or irregular, it may be necessary to first stabilise, fill and level, and compact the base. Place and compact material in the pipe bedding zone to minimum depth of 75mm beneath the pipe.
In order to ensure uniform support along the pipe barrel, a small indentation should be excavated in the pipe bedding zone to accommodate the pipe sockets. The pipe side support material should be placed evenly on both sides of the pipeline and compacted such that relative compaction is consistent with design. Side support material should be worked under the sides of the pipe to minimise voids and provide maximum pipe haunching, taking care to minimise distortion of the pipe and maintain alignment and grade. The pipe overlay material should be levelled and compacted in layers, to a minimum height of 150mm above the crown of the pipe, or as specified.


Backfilling

Backfill should be placed on the pipe overlay and compacted as specified but generally not in layers in excess of 300mm. Complete the backfilling operation to finished surface level.

 

Connection to structures

StormPRO® and SewerPRO® pipes may generally be connected to rigid structures without the use of short rocker pipes. StormPRO® and SewerPRO® pipes have sufficient flexibility and strain tolerance to accommodate differential settlement at the interface. The figure below shows a typical entry or exit to a concrete structure.

 

Where short rocker pipes are specified, either in 300mm or 600mm lengths, these should be installed as shown below. The most cost effective method is to cut pipe off-cuts to length on site, and join with plain couplings. Note that sanded shorts are not required as the corrugated pipe provides an adequate keying action into the concrete.

Above ground installation

For above-ground applications StormPRO® must be adequately supported in order to prevent sagging and excessive distortion. Clamp, saddle, angle, spring or other standard types of supports and hangers may be used where necessary. 
Pipe hangers should not be over-tightened. StormPRO® should be supported at regular intervals as detailed below, always with one support located directly behind the socket. These support spacings are based on StormPRO® carrying water at 20ºC. Note that where temperatures in excess of 20ºC are likely, the support spacing should be reduced.

Table 17 - Minimum Horizontal Support Spacing
Nominal Diameter (mm) 150 225 300 375 450 600 750 900
Minimum Horizontal Support Spacing (m)       1.25 1.60 1.90 2.15 2.50 2.75 3.00 3.00

The supports should provide a bearing surface of 120º under the base of the pipes and should be at least two corrugations wide. The pipes should be protected from damage at the supports with the provision of a membrane of PE, PVC or rubber.

 

Stormwater connections

The Vinidex PROgrommet® range of stormwater service connections provide 100mm and 150mm diameter connections to StormPRO® pipe up to 900mm nominal diameter.

The following procedure is recommended when installing the PROgrommet®:

 

  1. Drill hole in StormPRO® pipe using the PROsaw®. Hole centre must be located in the valley between corrugations.
  2. Inspect marking on PROgrommet® to ensure the correct size for selected StormPRO® pipe.
  3. Present PROgrommet® to hole with PROgrommet® flange to the inside and locating wings to the outside of the StormPRO® pipe.
  4. Squash the PROgrommet® by hand whereby the two locating wings align in the centre.
  5. With the flattened PROgrommet®, form a "C" shape and offer it to the prepared hole
  6. Position locating wings in the valley of the StormPRO® pipe profile.
  7. Apply Vinidex Lubricant to the inside diameter of the PROgrommet®
  8. Cut lead-in chamfer on pipe which is to be offered to PROgrommet®
  9. Mark a line on pipe showing the required insertion depth
  10. Apply Vinidex Lubricant to outside diameter of pipe.
  11. Insert prepared pipe to pre-marked insertion depth

Leakage test

Leakage testing is carried out to identify installation faults and sources of infiltration and exfiltration in pipelines which are required to be water tight such as sewerage systems. Leakage testing is generally not required for stormwater drains. AS/NZS 2566.2 specifies detailed procedures for leakage testing using hydrostatic testing, air or vacuum testing or infiltration testing of non pressure pipelines. These methods are summarised as below. Notwithstanding this, leakage testing should be carried out in accordance with local authority requirements.

Method 1: Hydrostatic Test
Fill the pipeline with water and pressurise to not less than 20kPa at the highest point of the section being tested, but not greater than 60kPa at the lowest point of the test section. Maintain the test pressure for at least two hours by adding measured volumes of water if required. Each joint should be carefully examined visually for leaks, and any defects should be repaired. The pipeline section is deemed satisfactory if the make-up volume is less that 0.5L per hour per metre length per metre diameter. After any repairs, the pipeline should be re-tested.


Method 2: Air Test
Introduce air slowly by suitable means until a pressure of 25kPa is obtained. Maintain for a period of at least 3 minutes. If no leaks are observed after 3 minutes, shut off the air supply. If the pressure of air contained in the pipes under test does not fall below 18kPa within the time period specified in Table 17 below, the pipeline shall be considered satisfactory. If, however, the pressure is not maintained within the specified limits, reintroduce the air and examine the pipeline for leaks by pouring a concentrated solution of soft soap and water over the joints and fittings. Identify and repair any leaks. After any repairs, the pipeline should be re-tested.


Method 3: Vacuum Test
Apply a vacuum until a negative pressure of 25kPa is obtained. Maintain for a period of at least 3 minutes. If no leaks are observed after 3 minutes, isolate the test section from the vacuum pump. Monitor the pressure for the time specified in Table 17. If the vacuum does not drop below 18kPa within the specified time period, the pipeline shall be considered satisfactory. Where the pipeline section fails the test, re-apply the vacuum and examine the pipeline for leaks. Identify and repair any leaks. After any repairs, the pipeline should be re-tested.

 

Method 4: Infiltration Test
Where there is a free standing water table at a height of at least 1.5m above the test section, an infiltration test can be carried out. Observe the pipe for 24 hours. Where infiltration is detected, the leak should be identified and repaired.

 Cut Ins & repairs

Cut-Ins
To cut into an existing buried StormPRO® or SewerPRO® pipeline and install a socketed junction or other socketed fitting, the following procedure should be adopted:

  1. Expose the existing pipe and cut out a length equal to the effective length of the fitting, plus approximately 600mm.
  2. Connect 300mm long short pipes to the junction sockets and fit rubber rings to the spigot ends of the short pipes.
  3. Fit slip couplings to the cut ends of the existing pipe and install junction.

 

Repairs
When selecting the required repair method, it is necessary to differentiate between minor and more extensive damage. Minor or localised damage should be limited to small holes in the pipe. In these situations, bolt tensioned wrap-around stainless steel repair fittings can be used. It is important to note that this type of fitting has no positive stop and must only be tightened in accordance with the manufacturers' torque settings. Damage caused by excavation or other machinery will inevitably affect the structural integrity of the pipe and should be cut out and replaced using slip couplings.
