IT 1S ALSO CALLED A DUAL VENT- CROSS SECTION =1S ANY PHYSICAL CONNECTION BETWEEN TWO OTHERWISE PIPING SYSTEM, ONE CONTANS POTABLE WATER, AND THE OTHER FROM UNKNOWN OR QUESTIONABLE SAFETY, WHERE: BY, WATER MAY FLOW FROM ONE SYSTEM To THE OTHER DIRECTION OF FLOW DEPENDING ON THE PRESSURE. DIFFE- RENTIAL BETWEEN THE TWO SYSTEMS. DEAD END ~|S THE EXTENDED PORTION OF A PIPE THAT IS CLOSED AT ONE END PERMITTING THE STAGNATION OF WATER OK AIR THEREIN.DEVELOPED LENGTH -THE LENGTH ALONG THE CENTER OF THE PIPE AND FITTING DIAMETER ~ DIAMETER OF A PIPE OR TUBE REFERS TO THE NOMINAL INTERNAL DIAMETER (ID) OF SUCH PIPE. EXCEPT BRASS AND COPPER TUBE, WHERE THE TERM REFERS TO THE OUTSIDE DIAMETER. (0p) OF THE PIPE. DRAINAGE SYSTEM ~DRAINAGE SYSTEM INCLUDES ALL PIPING WITHIN THE PUB- LIC OR PRIVATE PREMISES THAT CONVEYS SEWAGE , RAINWATER OR OTHER LIQUID WASTE , To A LEGAL POINT OF DISPOSAL. DRY VENT ~ A VENT THAT DOES NOT CARRY \NATER OR WATER BORNE WASTE. EFFECTNE OPENING -IS THE MINIMUM CROSS SECTIONAL AREA AT THE POINT OF WATER SUPPLY DISCHARGE , MEASURED OR EXPRESSED IN TERMES OF DIAMETER OF A CIRCLE. IF THE OPENING IS NOT CIRCLE , THE DIAMETER OF A CIRCLE THAT IS EQUIVALENT 10 THE CROSS SECTIONAL AREA EXISTING WORK SHALL APPLY TO THAT PORTION OF A PLUMBING SYSTEM THAT HAS BEEN INSTALLED AND APPROVED PRIOR TO THE CON- TEMPLATED ADDITION , ACCELERATION OR CORRECTION.FIXTURE BRANCH “IS. A PIPE CONNECTING SEVERAL FIXTURES FIXTURE DRAIN ~IS THE DRAIN FROM THE TRAP OF A FIXTURE TO THE JUNC- TION OF THAT DRAIN WITH ANY OTHER DRAIN - PIPE.

FIXTURE UNIT FLOW RATE ~I5 THE TOTAL DISCHARGE FLOW IN GALLONS PER MINUTE OF A SIMPLE FIXTURE DIVIDED BY 75 GALLONS THAT PROVIDES THE FLOW RATE OF THAT PARTICULAR PLUMBING FIXTURE AS A UNIT OF FLOW. FIXTURES ARE RATED AS MULTIPLE OF THIS UNIT OF FLOW. FLOOD LEVEL © A DEVICE LOCATED INSIDE TANK FOR THE PURPOSE OF MAINTAINING WATER LEVEL FOR EFFECTIVE FLUSHING OF THE \WATER CLOSET. FERRULE ~ AMETALLIC SLEEVE CALLED OK OTHERWISE JOINED TO AN OPENING IN PIPE INTO WHICH A PLUG Is SCREWED THAT CANBE REMOVED FOR THE PURPOSE OF CLEANING OR EXAMINING THE INTERIOR OF THE PIPE. FLUSH VALVE ~IS A DEVICE LOCATED AT THE BOTTOM OF THE TANK FOR FLUSHING WATER CLOSETS AND SIMILAR FIXTURES, FLUSHOMETER VALVE -IS A DEVICE WHICH DISCHARGES A PREDETERMINED QUAN- TITY OF WATER TOTHE FIXTURE FOR FLUSHING PURPOSES ACTIVATED BY DIRECT WATER PRESSURE. GRADE -IS A SLOPE OR FALL OF PIPE IN REFERENCE TO A FRACTION OF AN INCH PER FOOT LENGTH OF PIPE. GROUP VENT -A BRANCH VENT THAT PERFORMS IS FUNCTION FOR TWO OR MORE TRAPS HORIZONTAL PIPE -MEANS ANY PIPE OR FITTING WHICH MAKES AN ANGLE OF MORE THAN 45° WITH THE VERTICAL INVERT |S THE LOWEST PORTION OF THE INSIDE OF ANY PIPE OR CONDUIT THAT 6 NOT VERTICAL LIQUID WASTE ~\$ THE DISCHARGE FROM ANY FIXTURE, APPLIANCE OR APPURTENANCE IN CONNECTION WITHA PLUMBING SYSTEM WHICH DOES NOT RECEIVE FECAL MATTER.LOCAL VENT PIPE ~(S A PIPE ON THE FIXTURE SIDE OF THE TRAP THROUGH WHIGH VAPOR OR FOUL AIR IS REMOVED FROM A ROOM OR FIXTURE. LOOPED VENT ~IS THE SANE AS CIRCUIT VENT EXCEPT THAT IT LOOPS BACK AND CONNECTS WITH A STACK VENT INSTEAD OF A VENT STACK. LATERAL ~ IN PLUMBING IT IS A SECONDARY PIPE.IN SEWAGE, A 0) SEWER TO WHICH NO OTHER COMMON SERVER !S TRIGUTARY. fT RECEIVES SEWAGE ONLY FROM BUILDING SERVER: MAIN -THE MAIN OF ANY SYSTEM OF CONTINUOUS PIPING IS THE PRINCIPAL ARTERY OF THE SYSTEM To WHICH BRANCHES MAY BE CONNECTED. MAIN SERVER 1S A SEWER LINE OR SYSTEM DIRECTLY CONTROLLED BY PUBLIC AUTHORITY. MAIN VENT ~ ISTHE PRINCIPAL ARTERY OF THE VENTING SYSTEM TO WHICA VENT BRANCHES MAY BE CONNECTED. PLUMBING FIXTURES ARE INSTALLED RECEPTACLES , DEVICES, OR APPLIANCES WHIGH ARE SUPPLIED WITH WATER, OR WHICH RECEIVES OR DISCHARGES LIQUID OR LIQUID BORNE WATER, WITH ORWITHOUT DISCHARGE INTO DRAINAGE SYSTEM WHICH MAYBE DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY CONNECTED.

SECONDARY BRANCH -ANY BRANCH IN A BUILDING DRAIN OTHER THAN THE PRIMA- RY BRANCH. SEWERAGE OF SEWAGE WORK I$ A COMPREHENSIVE TERM INCLUDING ALL CONSTRUCTION OR COLLECTION , TRANSPORTATION , PUMPING , TREATMENT AND FINAL DISPOSITION OF SEWAGE. SIAMESE CONNECTION IS AY CONNECTION USED ON FIRE LINES sO THAT TWO LINES OF HOSE MAYBE CONNECTED TD A HYDRANT OR 10 THE SAME NOZZLESTAND PIPE ~ A VERTICAL PIPE USUALLY USED FOR THE STORAGE OF \ATER FREQUENTLY UNDER PRESSURE SIDE VENT =(8 A VENT CONNECTING TO THE DRAIN PIPE THROUGH A FIT- TING AT AN ANGLE. NOT GREATER THAN 45° OR TO THE VERTI“ CAL SOIL PIPE -|S ANY PIPE THAT CONVEYS THE DISCHARGE OF WATER CLO- SETS OR FIXTURE HAVING SIMILAR FUNCTIONS, WITH OR WITHO DISCHARGE FROM OTHER FIXTURES, TO THE BUILDING DRAINS (HOUSE DRAIN) OR BUILDING SEWER ( HOUSE SEINER) STACK ~IG THE VERTICAL MAIN OF A SYSTEM OF SOIL, WASTE OR VENT PIPE STACK GROUP -\S A TERM APPLIED TO THE LOCATION OF FIXTURES IN RELATION TO THE STACK SO THAT BY MEANS OF PROPER FITTINGS, VENTS MAY BE REDUCED To A MINIMUM STACK VENT -\8 THE EXTENSION OF SOIL OR WASTE STACK ABOVE THE AIGHEST HORIZONTAL DRAIN CONNECTED 10 THE STACK: IT IS SOMETIMES CALLED WASTE VENT OR SOIL VENT. STACK VENTING -|S AMETHOD OF VENTING A FIXTURE OR FIXTURES THROUGH THE SOIL OR WASTE. STACK.ANGLE OF NOT MORE THAN 45° Witt THE VERTICAL. WASTE 7 ISA PIPE THAT CONVEYS LIQUID WASTE FROM FIXTURE THAT IS FREE OF FECAL MATTER. WATER DISTRIBUTING PIPE “WATER DISTRIBUTING PIPE. IN A BUILDING OR PRENISES,, 1S A PIPE THAT CONVEYS WATER FROM THE WATER SERVICE PIPE TO THE PLUMBING FIXTURES AND OTHER WATER OUTLETS. WATER SERVICE PIPE ~ |S THE PIPE FROM THE WATER MAIN OR OTHER SOURCE. OF WATER SUPPLY TO THE BUILDING SERVED. WATER SUPPLY SYSTEM “THE WATER SUPPLY OF A BUILDING OR PREMISES CONSISTS OF WATER SERVICE PIPE, THE WATER DISTRIBUTING PIPES , AND THE NECESSARY CONNECTING PIPES, FITTING, CONTROL VALVES , AND ALL APPURTENANCE IN OR ADJACENT TO THE BUILDING OR PREMISES. WET VENT ~IS AVENT THAT RECEIVES THE DISCHARGE FROM WASTES OTHER THAN \WATER CLOSET. REFERENCE: . Fayordo,M. (nd) Plumbing Design ond Estmak. 2nd Editon. 5189 Trading.
