10. HANDLING AND STORAGE REQUIREMENTS<br />
Do not stack pipe for storage without prior written approval from Future Pipe<br />
Industries. FRP Reka couplings should be stored flat.<br />
When storing the pipe directly on the ground, make sure that the ground is loose<br />
sand, level and free of potentially damaging debris or stones.<br />
Pipe sections 40 feet or less in length may be lifted using one support point. Any<br />
pipe section may be lifted using two support points separated by a third of that<br />
section length and located equidistant from the pipe section center.<br />
For lifting pipe, use pliable straps or rope. Do not use steel cables or chains<br />
unless sufficient padding is used to protect the pipe surface. Store rubber gaskets<br />
in their original containers (bags) in a cool, dry area shaded from sunlight.<br />
Do not drop or impact the pipe, particularly at pipe ends.<br />
Caution: Workers should wear gloves when handling pipe to protect hands from<br />
the rough pipe surfaces.<br />
Additional handling instructions shall be according to the Fiberstrong FRP Pipe<br />
Handling & Installation Manual for Underground Pipe Systems.
