I disagree on gluing being essential. It isn't if the conduit is installed correctly, if people are installing plastic conduit so badly that it requires gluing to remain secure then they need to have a look at their workmanship.
Installed correctly in my opinion means it is glued together, that's the way I was taught to do it and so that's the way will always do it.
I've seen far too many PVC conduit installations that have come apart either though mechanical damage or thermal expansion/contraction to be happy with it not being glued.
