5.2.14 Comparison <strong>of</strong> Measured Values and QC Sample/Design Values. Table 5-10 presents the<br />
results for ASTM D790 and ASTM 638 test<strong>in</strong>g <strong>of</strong> the 8 <strong>in</strong>. Columbus CIPP l<strong>in</strong>er performed immediately<br />
follow<strong>in</strong>g the <strong>in</strong>stallation (5 years earlier) by DLZ Ohio, Inc. The QA sample showed a f<strong>in</strong>ished<br />
thickness <strong>of</strong> 7.5 mm, compared with an average <strong>of</strong> 5.72 mm measured <strong>in</strong> this study and a design value <strong>of</strong><br />
6.0 mm. One possible explanation for the difference between the two measurements is that the orig<strong>in</strong>al<br />
QA sample was taken at the upstream end <strong>of</strong> a long CIPP run, while the exhumed section came from the<br />
downstream end on a relatively steep slope (approximately 8%), which could result <strong>in</strong> stretch<strong>in</strong>g and<br />
subsequent th<strong>in</strong>n<strong>in</strong>g <strong>of</strong> the l<strong>in</strong>er. Another potential explanation is that the QA sample is typically<br />
prepared by cur<strong>in</strong>g an extension <strong>of</strong> the l<strong>in</strong>er with<strong>in</strong> the manhole. This does not have the same <strong>in</strong>stallation<br />
and cur<strong>in</strong>g conditions as with<strong>in</strong> the sewer l<strong>in</strong>e itself and such samples are generally expected to have<br />
higher test results than coupons cut from with<strong>in</strong> the sewer.<br />
Table 5-11 presents the results for ASTM D790 and ASTM D638 test<strong>in</strong>g <strong>of</strong> the exhumed section <strong>of</strong> the<br />
same l<strong>in</strong>er measured by TTC. The overall flexural strength <strong>of</strong> the l<strong>in</strong>er (6,416 ± 2,038 psi) was found to<br />
be well above the design value <strong>of</strong> 4,500 psi, but lower than the value reported by DLZ <strong>in</strong> 2005 (7,264 ±<br />
500 psi). The modulus <strong>of</strong> elasticity <strong>of</strong> the specimens taken from the exhumed l<strong>in</strong>er was found <strong>in</strong> all cases<br />
to exceed the design value <strong>of</strong> 250,000 psi by a significant marg<strong>in</strong> (see Table 5-11) with an average<br />
modulus <strong>of</strong> 346,050 ± 49,748 psi. The flexural strength and the flexural modulus <strong>of</strong> the specimens taken<br />
from the spr<strong>in</strong>g l<strong>in</strong>e and <strong>in</strong>vert <strong>of</strong> the l<strong>in</strong>er were found to be below the respective values at the crown.<br />
The flexural strength <strong>of</strong> the exhumed l<strong>in</strong>er is 12% below the value reported for the as-<strong>in</strong>stalled l<strong>in</strong>er.<br />
Likewise, the flexural modulus <strong>of</strong> the exhumed l<strong>in</strong>er is 25% below the value reported for the as-<strong>in</strong>stalled<br />
l<strong>in</strong>er. These values may be expected to have some differences because the as-<strong>in</strong>stalled samples are not<br />
taken from the l<strong>in</strong>er run itself, but rather from an extended portion <strong>of</strong> the l<strong>in</strong>er with<strong>in</strong> a manhole. The<br />
variation <strong>of</strong> data across all the retrospective specimens is exam<strong>in</strong>ed further <strong>in</strong> Section 6.<br />
