If UPVC pipes are laid over a long distance in a pipe tray and then separated at the ends (via adhesive), does anyone suggest that expansion joints should be installed?

Plastic has a high coefficient of thermal expansion, so thermal compensation must be considered when installing plastic pipes over long distances.

So, are there any standards for the installation of expansion joints?

It seems there’s no standard; just make a square expansion elbow.
