What isfare the characteristic(s that PVC and CPVC pipe shares with steel pipe of the same schedule? outside diameter inside diameter and pressure roting Inside and outside diameter and the wall thickness outside diameter, wall thickness and pressure rating

## Step 1<br />The problem is asking us to identify the common characteristics between PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride), CPVC (Chlorinated Polyvinyl Chloride), and steel pipes of the same schedule. The options provided are:<br />- Outside diameter<br />- Inside diameter and pressure rating<br />- Inside and outside diameter and the wall thickness<br />- Outside diameter, wall thickness, and pressure rating<br /><br />## Step 2<br />We need to understand that the schedule of a pipe refers to the thickness of the pipe wall. The schedule number is a measure of the thickness of the pipe wall, with a higher schedule number indicating a thicker wall.<br /><br />## Step 3<br />Given this, we can eliminate the options that only mention the outside diameter, as this is not a characteristic that changes with the schedule of the pipe.<br /><br />## Step 4<br />The remaining options mention the inside and outside diameter, wall thickness, and pressure rating. These are all characteristics that can vary with the schedule of the pipe.<br /><br />## Step 5<br />Therefore, the correct answer is the one that includes all these characteristics: the outside diameter, wall thickness, and pressure rating.
