Has anyone ever done this test? If so, please could you forward a photograph of your set-up? Thank you.
"The purpose of this test is to determine if the sleeve has adequate resistance to shear stresses that might result from friction between the coating and the ground during pipe movement. The normal and shear loads simulate the forces experienced in actual operation due to back-fill and to pipe movement."
