TRENCHES (WIDTH, DEPTH & FALL BACK)
It is important to construct proper trenches before laying
UPP® pipe. Trenches should be wide and deep enough to
comfortably allow pipe runs, recommended spacing, and
backfill materials.
Recommended burial depth of UPP® pipe is a minimum of
300 mm (12").
All trenches should be sloped back towards the storage tanks
with a recommended gradient of 1:100.
Vapour return lines must have a slope of 1:50 (1/4" per foot)
and never less than 1:100 (1/8" per ft) back towards the tank
farm, unless in-line joints such as elbows are to be used.
Trench corners should contain a radius suitable for the pipe work.
