Foreword
IS0 (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of
national standards i-nstitutes (IS0 member bodies). The work of developing Inter-
national Standards is carried out through IS0 technical committees. Every member
body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been set up 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.
Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to
the member bodies for approval before their acceptance as International Standards by
the IS0 Council.
International Standard IS0 881 was developed by Technical Committee ISO/TC 77,
Products in fibre reinforced cement, and was circulated to the member bodies in March
1979.
It has been approved by the member bodies of the following countries :
Australia Israel Romania
Austria
Italy South Africa, Rep. of
Brazil Korea, Rep. of Spain
Colombia Libyan Arab Jamahiriya
Switzerland
Czechoslovakia Mexico Thailand
Egypt, Arab Rep. of Morocco Turkey
France Netherlands United Kingdom
Greece New Zealand USSR
India Poland
Yugoslavia
Ireland Portugal
The member body owing country expressed
of the foll disapproval of the document on
technical grounds

This International Standard cancels and replaces IS0 Recommendation R 8814968, of
which it constitutes a technical revision.

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of
national standards institutes (ISO member bodies). The work of developing Inter-
national Standards is carried out through ISO technical committees. Every member
body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been set up 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.
Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to
the member bodies for approval before their acceptance as International Standards by
the ISO Council.
International Standard ISO 881 was developed by Technical Committee ISO/TC 77,
Products in fibre reinforced cernent, and was circulated to the member bodies in March
1979.
It has been approved by the member bodies of the following countries :
Australia Israel Romania
Austria I taly South Africa, Rep. of
Brazil Korea, Rep. of
Spain
Colombia Libyan Arab Jamahiriya Switzerland
Czechoslovakia Mexico Thailand
Egypt, Arab Rep. of Morocco Turkey
France Netherlands United Kingdom

The member body of the following country expressed disapproval of the document on
technical grounds :

This International Standard cancels and replaces ISO Recommendation R 881-1968, of
which it constitutes a technical revision.

and drainage applications; it defines certain conditions of
manufacture, classification, characteristics and acceptance - 40 kN/m2 for series 1

NOTE - Asbestos-cernent pressure pipes and joints are covered by
ISO 1602). Building and sanitary pipes in asbestos-cernent are covered - 90 kN/m2 for series 3
