i 1 <br /> • J <br /> � � ` EXHIBIT B <br /> 5. WATER SERVICE PIPE. Water service pipe from the corporation stop to the <br /> building other than for services larger than two inches in diameter shall be cold drawn, soft <br /> I annealed seamless co er suitable for under ound service with ro er bendin tem er with <br /> , PP �' P P g P <br /> quality and properties equal to A.S.T.M. Class K specifications. For services larger than two <br /> inches in diameter materials as are approved in the City of Decatur specifications for water main <br /> installations may be used with the approval of the Director of the Water Department. Between <br /> water main tap and curb stop there shall be a continuous unspliced run of pipe. <br /> 6. WATER JOINTS AND FITTINGS. All joints and fittings for service lines between <br /> main and meter shall be manufactured of ASTM B62 bronze. They shall be provided with <br /> generous wrench surfaces to permit the joints to be easily and firmly made. The spud end of 3/4 <br /> and one inch corporation stops, curb stops, and couplings shall fully conform to AWWA C800, <br /> Figures 2 and 3, Tables 2 and 3 (Flared Copper Service Connections); or they shall be <br /> compression connections as described below for service lines larger than one inch. Corporation <br /> stops, curb stops, and couplings for service lines larger than one inch shall be provided only with <br /> compression connections specifically designed for use with copper service pipe for direct burial, <br /> flared copper service connections, or silver soldered joints. No other types of solder joints are <br /> permitted. Spuds and nuts of said compression connections shall be cast of ASTM B62 bronze <br />' with all threads and bearing surfaces accurately machined and so designed that the joint is <br /> properly made when the nut is tightened to the point wl�ere it contacts a machined shoulder on <br /> the spud, thereby providing for a final visual inspection without need for torque wrenches or <br /> guesswork. Compression connection sealing gaskets shall be totally confined to prevent cold <br /> flow or creep and shall contain an integral hardened stainless steel gripper band that is <br /> compressed by the gasket to provide high resistance to pull out forces caused by line pressure, <br /> i <br />
