I'm trying to design a harnessed push on fitting cast into a concrete wall. It's for a 90 inch steel pipe. I'd like to check my clearances, but to do so I need the Carnegie Fitting dimensions. When I ask the people in our office, they act like I have three heads.
Is there anywhere, on line or otherwise, where I can get Carnegie Fitting dimensions? They have to be standardized. I've already checked AWWA M11.
 
I am Italian but I do not know what does it mean "carnegie fitting". If it is something similar to the one suggested by Nackra You can visit the ACPPA-American Concrete Pressure Pipes Association's site where You can find ALL the manufacturers of such a item in U.S.A. and Canada. They can supply You both spigot and socket steel ring joints according to their standards so that You can adjust them to Your need
 
Dimensions of fabricated steel water pipe fittings are addressed in AWWA C208 standard -- that being said, if specific dimensions of the fitting and joints are critical to the application, I likewise recommend you contact the fabricator for the particulars you are interested in (as bimr is right, 90-inch fittings are not off the shelf items).
