    Septic Tank Estimation

    Uploaded by

    Vishnu Wdr
    The document discusses sanitary and water supply works including latrines, wash basins, pipes, manholes, and septic tanks. Latrines, basins, and urinals are estimated per number, while fittings like valves and pipes are estimated per number or running meter. Manholes provide access to sewers and are estimated per number. Septic tanks are used for waste disposal in rural and unsewered areas, with dimensions based on user capacity like liquid volume of 0.07-0.13 cubic meters per user. A 25-user example tank is designed with dimensions of 2m long, 0.9m wide, and 1.7m deep based on a liquid depth of 1.4m and floor
