BPF Pipes Group releases butt fusion jointing guide The BPF Pipes Group has published a new guide for engineers and specifiers on butt fusion jointing of polyethylene pressure pipes. The butt fusion welding technique has been shown to consistently deliver quality pipe joints under a broad range of construction situations.  The guide, which is presented as a reference source to com- plement industry procedural specifications is available at www.bpfpipesgroup.com/support-downloads/guidance-notes/ and uses case studies to show some of the many applications, environmental conditions and pipe sizes for which butt fusion is now routinely used with polyethylene pipes. The BPF Pipes Group is a member of the European Plastic Pipes and Fittings Association (TEPPFA) and has customised the guidance prepared by TEPPFA to UK applications.
