The D-load to produce a 0.01-inch-wide crack must be not less than the specified D-load.
For pipe classes not specified under AASHTO M 170, but within the minimum and maximum size limits under AASHTO M 170, determine the wall thickness and steel area by interpolation from data given in the tables for pipes of the next smaller size and pipes of the next larger size.

The Department will grant the authorization required under AASHTO M 170 to extrapolate minimum wall thicknesses and steel areas beyond the limits for wall A or B in table 4 and for wall B in table 5 under AASHTO M 170 if you submit your pipe designs in advance and the pipes comply with all of the specified tests and performance requirements.
For reinforced concrete pipe sizes 36 inches in nominal diameter and smaller, you may substitute nonreinforced concrete pipe if the nonreinforced concrete pipe complies with the following requirements:
1. Minimum 3-edge bearing strength must be the D-load to produce the ultimate load for the class of equivalent reinforced concrete pipe under AASHTO M 170.
2. Pipes must comply with AASHTO M 86M/M 86, Class 1, 2 or 3 as required to comply with the specified D-load requirements. You may request authorization for modified or special designs under AASHTO M 86M/M 86.
3. Cementitious material and aggregate for nonreinforced concrete pipe must comply with specifications for cementitious material and aggregate under section 65-2.02.
