Building including the following -:

1 -no of WC is 20

2 -no lav. Is 15

3 -no k.s is 6

4 -no Sh. Is 10

5 -no of Bath is 7

6 -no of FD is 11

Calculate the following

1 -submersible pump flow and head

2 -sump pit dimensions

3 -diameter of drainage pipe and flow in this pipe

4 -illustration of sump pit including

level of floats

Where this fixture as public

Solution
Assume that all the units are in the basement , the water closet is " flush tank "

units Number of Fixture unit

them
Water closet 20 20*4=80

lav 15 15*1=15

Kitchen sink 6 6*2=12

Shower 10 10*2=20

bathtub 7 7*2=14

Floor drain 11 11*2=22

Total f.u 163

pump flowrate = 81.5 GPM = 0.310404 M3/min

as per code every 2 FU needs 1 GPM

head = static head + friction head + residual (fix units )

Assume basement depth is 4 m

Head = 0.4 bar+ 0.24 bar+0.5 =1.14 bar

Head =2 bar

sump pit dimensions

volume = 0.310404*5 min =1.6 M3

from TABLE 710.1(1) in IPC

pipe diameter = 4 inch , slope = 1%

assume the length of the drain pipe = 40 m

slope =40 cm

depth of the sump pit = 40 cm+ 60 cm = 100 cm= 1 m

drain pipe is 4 inch , the flow rate 82 Gpm

storm drain

Q=CIA ,

c= 0.3 ,

I= 38 mm/hr=1.497 in/hr

Assume Area of roof = 1000 m2=0.25 acres

Q=0.3*0.75*1.497=112 cfs=148 Gpm

HORIZONTAL STORM DRAINAGE size= 6 inch

Slope 1%

VERTICAL STORM DRAINAGE size = 5 inch
