PLUMBING DESIGN & CALCULATIONS PLUMBING DESIGN An efficient plumbing system starts with a design that saves water and energy resources. A good design incorporates short runs between plumbing fixtures and uses state-of-the art materials. A plumbing design must include two systems: the system that supplies water and the system that gets rid of waste. Before you begin designing a house for plumbing, drain, waste and vent systems, you must follow local building codes to ensure design compliance. A Plumbing designer should know the basic plumbing principles and standards of plumbing materials. Avoid any plumbing plans that requires the plumber to weaken the buidling structure. PLUMBING CALCULATIONS Plumbing calculations are performed to determine the minimum vertical and horizontal sizes of drainage pipes. We calculate water supply distribution pipe sizes, pressure losses and plumbing equipment's capacities. |
