Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through
ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee
has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations,
governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely
with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are described
in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular, the different approval criteria needed for the different types
of ISO document should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the editorial rules of the
ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www.iso.org/directives).
ISO draws attention to the possibility that the implementation of this document may involve the use of (a)
patent(s). ISO takes no position concerning the evidence, validity or applicability of any claimed patent
rights in respect thereof. As of the date of publication of this document, ISO had not received notice of (a)
patent(s) which may be required to implement this document. However, implementers are cautioned that
this may not represent the latest information, which may be obtained from the patent database available at
www.iso.org/patents. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.

This document was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 138, (Plastics pipes, fittings and valves for the
transport of fluids), Subcommittee SC 5, (General properties of pipes, fittings and valves of plastic materials and
their accessories — Test methods and basic specifications).
This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition (ISO 13760: 1998), which has been technical
revised. The main changes compared tom the previous edition are as follows:
— The scope of the document has been re-phrased for as more detailed description of Miner´s rule with
respect to designing plastics piping systems.
— The application examples given in Annexes A and B have been reformulated to exact procedures and
extended.

Introduction
In plastics piping systems, operating conditions like temperature and pressure can vary over the whole
service time.
One example is in hot & cold-water application, in particular, this variation is mainly in temperature. (E.g.
a hot water pipe is not necessary all the service time at constant high temperature but usually at the same
pressure). Typical time temperature profiles are defined in ISO 10508 as application classes and these
profiles are used for designing the dimensions of the piping components.
Miner´s rule, which allows the assessment of a load collective on the cumulative damage, was found to be
suitable also for dimensioning plastics piping components under varying conditions to achieve a targeted
design time. Additionally, the effect of cumulative damage caused by oxidative attack e.g. for polyolefins, at
varying operating conditions on the design life can be evaluated with Miner´s rule.

Plastics pipes for the conveyance of fluids under pressure —
Miner's rule — Calculation method for cumulative damage
1 Scope
In general terms, Miner’s rule is a common approach to calculate how the accumulation of a specific load
that varies over time effects the time until failure.
This international standard specifies the application of Miner’s rule for calculating the design time until
failure of plastics pipes and piping systems of plastics materials under varying, but known, load conditions.
Miner’s rule can also be applied reciprocally to calculate the tolerable load levels along a desired design time.
This international standard specifies particularly the application of Miner’s rule to calculate stress or pressure
regimes, respectively, that are tolerable during a targeted design time for plastics or composite pipes.
Further, the application of Miner’s rule on the effect of accumulated damage on polyolefins caused by
oxidative attack under varying temperatures and times on the design life is specified.
It is necessary to apply Miner's rule to each failure mechanism separately. Thus, for mechanical failure due
to internal pressure, other failure mechanisms, such as oxidative or dehydrochlorinative degradative failure
mechanisms, are to be neglected (assuming, of course, no interaction). A material may be used only when it
is proven to conform to all failure mechanism criteria.
NOTE Miner's rule is an empirically based procedure and is only a first approximation to real
