11、ieldsupporting strength of a pipe is defined as its capacity tosupport dead and live loads under actual field conditions.It isdependent upon two factors:(1)the inherent strength of thepipe and(2)the bedding of the pipe.4.2 The minimum bearing strength requirement in accor-dance with Specification C7
12、00,as determined by the 3-edge-bearing test of Test Methods C301,is a measure of the inherentstrength of the pipe.4.3 The tests used to measure bearing strength determinerelative pipe strengths but do not represent actual field condi-tions.Therefore,an adjustment called a load factor is intro-duced
13、to convert minimum bearing strength to field supportingstrength.The magnitude of the load factor depends on how thepipe is bedded.The relationship is:Field supporting strength5 minimum bearing strength3load factor1This practice is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee C04 on VitrifiedClay Pipe an
