Drain and Sewer Pipe Slope

1. Install horizontal drain and sewer pipe with a uniform slope and alignment.
2. Install pipe not more than () 2 inches diameter with at least () a unit in 12 u
nits (2 percent) slope.
3. Install pipe at least () 3 inches diameter with at least () a unit in 12 units
(1 percent) slope.
Drain and Sewer Pipe Offset Size
1. Use the vertical stack column in the drain pipe size Table P3005.4-1 to deter
mine the size of any off set pipe in a vertical drain pipe that is not more than
() 45 degrees from vertical.
2. Use the sewer pipe size Table P3005.4-2 to determine the size of any off set
pipe below the lowest horizontal branch that is more than (>) 45 degrees from ve
rtical.
3. Size an off set pipe above the lowest horizontal branch that is more than (>)
45 degrees from vertical as follows:
(a) use the vertical stack column in the drain pipe size Table P3005.4-1 to dete
rmine the size of the stack pipe above the off set, and
(b) use the sewer pipe size Table P3005.4-2 to determine the size of the off set
, and (c) use the pipe size from the previous step (b) or the total number of df
u draining into the entire stack, whichever is larger, to determine the size of
the stack below the off set.
