(1) Pipe stiffness referred to in this table are initial values.<br />

(2) Where the designer can be certain that intial pressurisation will take place within one year of backfilling, a value of 1.0 may<br />

be taken for the deflection lag factor.<br />

Note 1. For construction details of embedment classes see table NA8.<br />

Note 2. Quoted values of E’ 2<br />

assume pipe line will be installed below ground water.<br />

Note 3. Mp indicates modified proctor density and corresponds to the heavy compaction test in BS 1377.<br />
