Manhole Invert Bending Radius

Manhole Invert Bending Radius

Manhole Invert Bending Radius

(OP)
Friends,

I am looking for resources that would cover the bending radius required for Manhole Inverts.

I checked a Pipe Fittings book and there is no standard from what I could see (I.E. 1.5 x Diameter of Pipe).  Thanks for any help.

RE: Manhole Invert Bending Radius

What are you talking about MH invert don't have a bending radius. Sometimes flow is redirected in a different direction through forming the invert.

ASCE MOP #60, Gravity Sanitary Sewer Design and Construction (WPCF MOP No. FD-5) has guidance on what you seek and/or alternatives to same on pgs 136-137.

Dicksewerat (very clever name),I  think what he is referring to, are elbows on the inlets and outlets of MH.

RE: Manhole Invert Bending Radius

Oh ok. I wouldn't put an elbow in or out of a manhole. I was the guy that had to keep the flow going down the pipe.
