I believe that a leak test procedure with 5% pressure loss is not the proper test. ??? (astm f2164) I have been testing similar situations with the PVC or Ductile Specificaiton in a pipe bursting situation with HDPE and Ductile Mega lugs, inserts, tees, etc... gal/hr, per inch per mile...

I just joined, we are a water main contractor and we are installing HDPE DR11 8" Water Main with Mechanical Joints at the Gate Wells and Hydrants, along with ductile iron sleeves, tees etc.....
From what I have researched, can you tell me the correct or acceptable hydrostatic test...
