Cast Iron pipe (CI) (1) 1.5m long.ranging from 50-150mm. (2) less than 25
storey. (3) ferrous oxide called rust (4) Types of CI: SV Type (general) and XV Type
(extra duty/underground).
Asbestos Pipe Twice (2x) as that of the standard cast iron pipe.
Bituminous Fiber Sewer Pipe (1) Cheapest (2)light in weight (3) slightly flexible
Vitrified Clay Pipe length of 0.72m, heated in a large kiln under a temp of 1370C.
Lead Pipe poisonous and injurious
Galvanized Steel Pipe 6m long. Easily corroded by alkaline and acid water.
Kapal Manipis
Deteriorate faster when used in hot water supply.
Galvanized Wrought Iron Pipe more resistant to acid waste that steel pipe.
Brass Pipe made of alloy/zinc and copper. 15% (alloy/zinc) and 85% copper
Copper pipe (1) durable and extremely corrosive resistant material. (2) Type K, L
and M. (3) It may be used 1 size smaller than a steel pipe.
Plastic/ Synthetic Pipe developed in the mid year of 1935 Naitatag ang
Ang PBNAMPAP
pwede hanggang 150m long.
1. PE and PB tubes are in coil available at 30m long.
2. PVC pipes and fittings weighs about 1/5 of the metal pipe.
3. PE weighs about 1/8 as much as steel pipe.
Methyl-Ethyl-Ketone acetone
Plastic derived from coal and petroleum products.
Celluloid 1st Plastic material introduced followed by Bakelite (1905) and now, PE.
For Cast Iron Pipe, Single hub used more than 1.5m long, double hub if shorter.
Hubless pipe with neoprene rubber sleeves. In joining hubless, oakum followed by
molten lead 20-25mm lalagpas lang ng 3mm.
For Galvanized Steel Pipe, cutting is done by using 14-teeth per inch hacksaw
blade. Nipples ranging from 2-12 inches long.
One (1) roll of Teflon Tape is 1 meter long
For copper pipe, cutting is done by using 24-teeth per inch (heavy pipes) and 32teeth per inch(thinner). NEVER allow the fluxed joint to stand for more than 3
hours before soldering.
For plastic pipe,(1) joining by SOLVENT WELDING. (2) Insert and make a quarter
turn(1/4) and turning should not be more than 30sec. (3) 2 hours before testing the
line under pressure. (4) 15-20hrs permit to use of the line.
Daily average of human waste/excreta 80 grams (feces) and 950 grams (urine),
diluted with water at the rate of 30-100 gallons/day.
Total sewage solids, 50% is organic (nabubulok)
1 m3 = 264
Gallons
Location of Septic Tank: 2m from the outside wall, 15m away from any source of
water supply.
Special Waste - When a waste pipe is NOT directly connected to a soil stack/house
drain.
Premature Waste Line Defects tilted or crooked joint connection.
Cleanout equal to the diameter of waste pipe.
Scouring means to flush or wash out, to remove dirt or grease by flowing through.
Flowing water at drainage pipe must be the pipe diameter.
Fixture Unit amount of water each fixture discharges in 1min interval.
WASTE PIPE Direct and Indirect waste.
Generally, 50mm pipe is required for ALL TYPES of urinals.
Stack vent extended above the roof NOT less than 0.3m long and NOT less than
75mm (3) diameter.
When the roof is to be used other than protection from the elements of the weather,
Vent stack should be extended NOT less than 2m above roof.
Cleanout - equal to the diameter of the soil branch. Located at the farthest end of
the branch away from the vertical soil pipe.
House Drain receives discharges of all soil and wastes stacks. Collecting Line of a
Plumbing System. Being HORIZONTAL PIPELINE.
Any branch of the house drain terminating at a floor drain or fixture, shall be provided
with 100mm pipe extended at least 2inches above the floor.
The trap of the floor drain NOT more than 0.5m below finished floor line.
Cleanout installed every 20m interval distance.
House Trap installed in the house drain immediately inside the foundation wall of
the building.
Area Drain MINIMUM SIZE 100mm or 4 pipe
If the fixture is less than 1.5m from the drain, it should be TAPPED but NOT
necessarily VENTED.
MINIMUM size for floor drain 75mm or 3 p-trap, installed NOT more than 0.2m
below the floor line.
Cellar Basement Floor Drain
GREASE TRAP (1) Basin width should NOT be less than 0.60m. (2) Length should
be 3-4 times its width. (3) MINIMUM DEPTH of concrete grease trap should NOT be
less than 1.2m below the outlet invert.
House Sewer/ Building Sewer starts 0.90m from the outer face of the building.
Most practical method of establishing grade 1/8 bend
NO vent shall be less than 38mm (1) except for a 32mm (1) waste
pipe.
Vent practically rise vertically or at 45 up to the point of 0.15m above the fixture.
House Service pipe connection from the public water main/any water supply to
the building served.
Branches horizontal pipes that serve the faucets/fixtures.
MAXIMUM DEMAND max water distribution of fixtures in terms of FU. One unit is
valued at 8 gallons of water discharge per min interval.
Public Water Distribution has an averaged water pressure of 50psi.
Hot water installation: copper tube, stainless steel pipe, PVDC plastic pipe.
Pump Circuit System mechanical device used to circulate hot water to the plumbing
fixtures.
HOT WATER TANK: (1) Range Boiler small, (2) Storage Boiler large
Range Boiler generally made of copper or stainless steel sheet, D=0.3-0.6m & not
more than L=1.8m
Storage Boiler made of heavy-duty stainless, D=0.6-1.3m & not more than L=5m
A 12mm () thick fiberglass efficient insulating cover.
Hot and Cold water running in parallel minimum distance of 0.15m.
