Overview of WSAA
The Water Services Association of Australia (WSAA) is the peak body of the Australian urban
water industry. Its members and associate members provide water and wastewater services
to approximately 16 million Australians and to many of our largest industrial and commercial
enterprises.
Urban water service providers have a critical role in ensuring that Australians have access
to adequate and high quality water services. As Australia ’s population continues to grow,
with most of this growth occurring in cities, that role becomes increasingly important.
WSAA’s vision is for Australian urban water utilities to be valued as leaders in the innovative,
sustainable and cost effective delivery of water services. WSAA strives to achieve this vision
by promoting knowledge sharing, networking and cooperation amongst members. WSAA
identifies emerging issues and develops industry-wide responses. WSAA is the national
voice of the urban water industry, speaking to government, the broader water sector and the
Australian community.
The Water Services Association of Australia (WSAA) is the peak industry body that supports
the Australian Urban Water Industry. Its members and associate members provide water and
sewerage services to approximately 20 million Australians and many of Australia’s largest
industrial and commercial enterprises.
The Association facilitates collaboration, knowledge sharing, networking and cooperation
within the urban water industry. It is proud of the collegiate attitude of its members which
has led to industry-wide approaches to national water issues.
WSAA can demonstrate success in the standardisation of industry performance monitoring
and benchmarking, as well as many research outcomes of national significance. The WSAA
Executive retains strong links with policy makers and legislative bodies and their influences,
to monitor emerging issues of importance to the urban water industry. WSAA is regularly
consulted and its advice sought by decision makers when developing strategic directions for
the water industry.
WSAA was formed in 1995 as a non-profit organisation to foster the exchange of information
relating to the provision of urban water services between industry, government and the
community, and to promote sustainable water resource management.
The Association’s main activities focus on four areas:
1. Influencing national and state policies on the provision of urban water services and
sustainable water resource management;
2. Promoting debate on environmentally sustainable development and management of
water resources and the community health requirements of public water supplies;
3. Improving industry performance and establishing benchmarks and industry leading
practices for water service processes; and
4. Fostering the exchange of information on education, training, research, water and
wastewater management and treatment and other matters of common interest.

Monomer (EPDM) elastomeric seals that conform to AS1646. For additional sealing
performance in the DN1050 to DN1500 sized pipes Enviropipes use a dual rubber ring joint.
Refer to Figure 3 for sealing configuration.
All pipes from DN100 to DN1500 have demonstrated compliance under test with AS 1462.8,
as referenced in AS/NZS 5065, Section 3.4 Tests on Elastomeric Seal Joints. The
compliance specification states that the assembled joint, with a diametric distortion of 7.5%
must withstand an internal pressure of 80 (+5 -0) kPa for 60 (+5 -0) minutes without leakage.
In addition, an angular deflection complying with Table 1 of AS/NZS 1462.8 was applied to
the assembled test specimen before the application of diametric distortion and internal
pressure.
For all pipe sizes (DN100 to DN1500), Enviropipes has continued the co extrusion process
to add extra thickness and structural strength to the socket. The sealing configuration is
shown in Figure 3.
FIGURE 3 SEALING CONFIGURATION
Polyethylene pipes have a stiffness rating of SN8 or 8000 N/m/m. Both waterway and profile
thickness are identical despite the difference in SN rating as this is achieved solely on the

“A sample was prepared and analysed in accordance with AS 1462.23. As referenced in AS/NZS 5065 section 3.2.3, the compliance specification states that the test specimen of pipe shall not show any of the following defects; cracking, wall delamination, rupture, or permanent buckling.
For test procedure see EP054 - Ring Flexibility - Testing Procedure.”
All test reports stated the results as a ‘pass’.
6.3.1.4 Hydrostatic pressure test on elastomeric seal joints (DN100 – DN900)
Ref: AS/NZS 5065:2005 (AMDT 1:2010) Clause 3.4.1 – Hydrostatic pressure test
Enviropipes has submitted nine individual ‘in-house’ test reports titled “Seal Leak Tightness”
all dated during 2011/12 for pipe sizes from DN225 to DN2000 Class SN8 PE100,
HE3490LS.
These reports are typical ‘production’ test results stating the following:
“A sample was prepared and analysed in accordance with AS 1462.8. As referenced
in AS/NZS 5065:2005 section 3.4, the compliance specification states that the
assembled joint, with a diametric distortion of 7.5% must withstand an internal
pressure of 80 (+5 -0) kPa for 60 (+5 -0) minutes without leakage. In addition, an
angular deflection complying with Table 1 of AS/NZS 1462.8 was applied to the
assembled test specimen before the application of diametric distortion and internal
pressure. This simulates a worst case scenario.
For test procedure see EP036 - Seal Leak Tightness - Testing Procedure.”
The test reports actually demonstrate a ‘Hydrostatic pressure test’ in accordance with AS
1462.8:2008 which provides for testing using positive or negative pressure.
AS/NZS 5065:2005 (AMDT 1:2010) Clause 3.4.1 specifies a diametral distortion of 7.5% but
no angular deflection.
6.3.1.5 Liquid infiltration test on elastomeric seal joints (DN100 – DN900)
Ref: AS/NZS 5065:2005 Clause 3.4.2 – Liquid infiltration test.
Enviropipes has submitted a 7 page test report from NATA accredited APTS Laboratory titled
“Test Report for Hydrostatic/Pneumatic Pressure Testing” dated September 2012 for pipe
size DN450 Class SN8 PE100 with Gulf Rubber EPDM seal.
The test report nominates AS 5065 and AS 1462.8:2008 and concludes “Vacuum pressure
was held for 60 minutes. There were no ruptures or visible distortions on piping or fittings.
The results of this test meet the requirements of AS 1462.8:2008 Section 7.1.2 – Vacuum
method”.
Note: AS/NZS 5065:2005 Clause 3.4.2 does not specify angular deflection as a requirement.

7 FITTING INSTRUCTIONS, TRAINING AND INSTALLATION
Enviropipes Product Catalogue provides a one page, 5 step descriptions with photos for
rubber ring soc/spig jointing EnviroSewer pipe and Storm Water pipe. (See Appendix ‘F’)
The EPDM seal is inserted between last corrugations at the spigot, jointing lubricant is
applied to the socket and the joint made in the normal manner.
A fabricated soc/soc coupling for jointing cut pipe can be manufactured by Enviropipes to
order along with other fittings. Stainless steel repair couplings can be manufactured to order
by Enviropipes. A cut pipe jointing or pipe repair process has been provided by Enviropipes.
Refer to Appendix ‘F’ or Enviropipes for more information. These fittings are not included in
this appraisal.
DN1050 to DN1500 pipe is manufactured to suit the individual project and Enviropipes
Product Catalogue provides a diagram and video link of the assembly with the twin
elastomeric ring seal for soc/spig jointing pipe.
DN1050 to DN1500 pipes have plain inner surface and hollow outside helical ribbed external
surface. These pipes are manufactured with a formed integrated socket and plain spigot
specifically to project specifications. The spigot end is designed to accommodate the twin
rubber seals, which when assembled forms a water tight joint from the interface compression
of the rubber seal between the spigot and socket ends. These pipes are supplied with a set
of EPDM rubber seals and lubricant. These pipes are not suited to random cutting to length
in the field without a pre-ordered fabricated coupling. A pipe repair process for DN1050 to
DN1500 pipes has been provided by Enviropipes. Refer to Appendix ‘F’ or Enviropipes for
more information.
As a minimum compliance level, Enviropipes recommends that contractors install plastic
pipelines according to, but are not limited to, the following standards and guidelines;

Enviropipes packing and shipping guidelines
Polyethylene and polypropylene pipe and fittings shall be transported, handled and stored
with care at all times to avoid physical damage that could adversely affect performance.
Enviropipes have the following packaging and delivery procedures for transporting/loading
pipes of various sizes from their High Wycombe, WA manufacturing site:
“Generally, corrugated pipe can be bundled and strapped then loaded or stacked (dependent
on size) onto the freight forwarder trailer and tied down with holding straps/gates. Timber
gluts are generally used in between layers. It is the responsibility of the freight forwarding
driver to ensure the load has been safely secured prior to departure to prevent damage or
injury (i.e. bolsters, gates, straps). Enviropipes project team will also work in conjunction
with the client to discuss unloading methods at delivery point (ie pre-slung, stringing out
along pipe route, containerisation, etc) to determine the best and safest way to package and
transport product with a view to accommodate site facilities and minimise damage during
transport and handling.
For purchase orders which include delivery to site by the manufacturer we request clients to
examine loads upon arrival and prior to unloading ensure there has been no damage during
transportation caused by movement and abrasion or serious distortion caused by excessive
tightening of holding straps and there are no quantity discrepancies. Damage or quantity
discrepancies should be reported to Enviropipes without delay so corrective action can be
discussed and implemented.”
10 PRODUCT WARRANTY
The products are covered by the normal commercial and legal requirements of the
Competition and Consumer Act 2010 (Cth), which covers manufacture to the relevant

chambers and other structures.
13 OUTCOMES OF EXPERT PANEL PRODUCT REVIEW
There were no unresolved issued at the end of the Expert Panel product review process.
14 LIFE EXPECTANCY
Enviropipes has submitted a 2 page summary report titled “HDPE CORRUGATED PIPE LIFE
EXPECTANCY” which is based on technical data sourced from PIPA, PA 100 Association,
Plastics Pipe Institute and SAI Global. The report is summarised by Enviropipes stating:
Enviropipes are confident that the results demonstrate that HDPE corrugated pipe, when
designed, handled, manufactured, installed and maintained correctly will show a long service
life of between 50 – 100 years. This report is shown in full in Appendix ‘D’
Enviropipes range of corrugated wall Polyethylene and Polypropylene pipes are designed
on the basis of 50 year extrapolated material test data. For correctly manufactured and
installed systems, the actual life cannot be predicted, but can reasonably be expected to be
in excess of 100 years before major rehabilitation is required. Pipe life expectancy can vary
with the quality of installation workmanship, system operating conditions, operating
environment and other site specific factors.
15 FUTURE WORKS
There are no outstanding future work items at the end of the Expert panel review process.
