These criteria were established for the protection of public health and the environment. 1.2 Scope NOT FOR The physical, performance, and health effects requirements in this Standard apply to thermoplastic and thermoset plastic piping system components, including but not limited to pipes, fittings, valves, joining materials, gaskets, and appurtenances. The established physical, performance, and health effects requirements also apply to materials (resin or blended compounds) and ingredients used to manufacture plastic piping system components. This Standard provides definitions and requirements for materials, ingredients, products, quality assurance, marking, and recordkeeping. 1.3 Materials, design, and construction For plastic piping system components and materials cited by the references in 2, the materials, design, and construction requirements of this Standard and the applicable product standard(s) in 2 shall apply. When materials, designs, or constructions are utilized that are not cited in 2, the plastic piping system components and related materials shall comply with the applicable requirements of this Standard. Plastic piping system components and related materials that incorporate materials, designs, or constructions not cited in 2 are acceptable, provided that such plastic piping system components and related materials can be demonstrated to be at least equivalent in terms of strength, quality, effectiveness, durability, and safety to those that are cited in this Standard. 2 Normative references The following documents contain requirements that, by reference in this text, constitute requirements of this Standard.
