1 LAV x 1 wsfu = 1 1 LAV x 1 wsfu = 1

1 WC x 3 wsfu = 3 1 BT x 2 wsfu = 2

1 KS x 2 wsfu = 2 1 WC x 3 wsfu = 3

2 HB x 3 wsfu = 6 6 wsfu

12 wsfu

Total: 18 wsfu

Water Demand: 1.19 lps

DATA REQUIRED:

A.) Average pressure at water rain - 345 Kpa

B.) Total Fixture Load – 18 wsfu
C.) Estimated Water Demand – 1.19 lps
D.) Type of topmost fixture lavatory
E.) Height of topmost fixture – 4.45
F.) Length of piping
G.) Fixture pressure requirement at topmost fixture – 104 Kpa

Length of pipe = 7.5 + 8 + 3.6 + 0.5 + 0.85

DL = 20.45 m

DL’ = ( 20.45 x 1.5 ) = 30.675

TEL = 30.675 + 20.45 = 51.125

Static Head
B= ( 9.79)(4.45) = 43.37 kPa

C= 48.2 kPa

Pa= 345 – ( 104 + 43.57 + 48.2 )

Pa= 149.23 kPa
