The review copy will be edited for publication and may also be revised as appropriate based on any comments received during the public comment period. Therefore, this copy is not suitable for continued utilization and is intended only for comment purposes.

Final publication of the standard may take several months. When it is available, a notice will be published in the official notice section of Journal - American Water Works Association. The standard becomes an effective AWWA standard on the first day of the month following such publication in Journal - American Water Works Association. 

SCOPE
This standard describes Pressure Class 235 (PC 235) polyvinyl chloride (PVC) injection-molded fittings with push-on rubber-gasketed joints in nominal sizes 4 in. through 12 in. (100 mm through 300 mm)* for conveying potable water, reclaimed water, irrigation water, wastewater, or any fluid compatible with nonplasticized PVC.

MAJOR REVISIONS
Major changes made to the standard in this edition include the following:
1. Fitting Figures 2 through 18 have been reworked for clarity and consistency (Sec. 4.3).
2. References to dimension ratio (DR) and pressure class (PC) revised to be consistent with requirements in ANSI/AWWA C900 and ANSI/AWWA C909.
