While reviewing. this standard in the light of the experience gained during these years, the committee fett to revise the same, taking note of the present practices being followed in the country and also overseas standards existing on the subject. In the revision ofthis standard the following main modifications have been made: 4) Provision of outside diameters and thicknesses of pipes have been revi of International Standards. accordance with the provi 'b) Exhaustive tables for chemical composition of steels to be used and tensile properties of the pipes have been incorporated. ©) Annexes A to D as the guideline for ‘Protection Against Corrosion’ have been added which recommend methods of protecting pipes against corrosion. It covers external as well as internal protection. Separate Indian Standards incorporating various types of protective coatings and materials thereof are expected t0 be published in due course of time. Inthe formulation ofthis standard due weightage has been given to international coordination among the standards prevailing in different countries in addition tothe practices in the country. This has been met by deriving assistance ‘from the following publications: 18059-1991 Steel tubes for water and sewage ( second edition ), International Organization for Standardization. 1804200: 1991 Plain end steel tubes, welded and seamless — General tables of dimensions and masses pet unit length.

For the purpose of deciding whether a particular requirement ofthis standard is complied with the final value, observed or calculated, expressing the result of a test or analysis, shall be rounded off in accordance with 1S2: 1960 ‘Rules for rounding off numerical values ( revised)". The numberof significant places retained inthe rounded off value should be the same as that of the specified value in this standard. 15 3589 : 2001 Indian Standard STEEL PIPES FOR WATER AND SEWAGE ( 168.3 TO 2 540 mm OUTSIDE DIAMETER ) — SPECIFICATION ( Third Revision ) 1 SCOPE ‘This standard applies to seamless and welded carbon steel pipes for water and sewage of outside diameter from 168.3 to2 540 mm, 2.
