It is the pipe that conveys waste from the building to an approved point of disposal.

Drainage pipe

These are pipe accessories in the drainage system such as a coupling, bend, wye, etc.; used to join two or more pipes together or to change their directions.

Drainage Fittings

A pipe which carries only liquid waste, free of human excrement or fecal matter.

Waste pipe

A pipe which carries the waste from water closets, urinals or fixtures of similar function to the building drain. This contains human excrements.

Soil pipe

A pipe which convey rainwater from the roof gutter and down spout to the building storm drain.

Storm pipe

A pipe connected to the drainage system that conveys air to and from the system and keep the water from being siphoned from the trap.

Vent pipe

TYPES OF DRAINAGE PIPES

1. Waste pipe


2. Soil pipe


3. Storm pipe


4. Vent pipe

is the drainage pipe that runs horizontally.

Branch

is the vertical drainage pipe.

Stack

The selection of piping materials for the drainage system depends on the

1. Pressure


2. Velocity


3. Temperature


4. Corrosiveness of the medium conveyed within


5. Initial cost


6. Installation cost


7. Operating problem

Common drainage pipes and fittings materials used

a. Asbestos Cement Pipe (ACP)


b. Cast Iron Soil Pipe (CISP)


c. Concrete pipe d. Vitrified Clay Pipe e. Plastic Pipe


f. Iron Pipe Size (IPS)- Iron, Steel, Brass


g. Lead

Plastic Pipes

i. Polyethylene (PE)


ii. Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC)


iii. Acrylonitrile- Butadiene- Styrene (ABS)

Lead pipes

i. Safe span is 10.56 kg/m2 and 1.6mm thick


ii. For flushing or vent terminals-14.63 kg/m2 and 1.2 mm thick


iii. Lead bends and lead trap shall not be less than 3.2mm in wall thickness.

This type of pipe is made of asbestos fibers combined under pressure with Portland cement and silica to form a dense and homogeneous material. It is dense cured for strength.

ASBESTOS CEMENT PIPE

used for sewer mains, industrial effluent and process piping, working pressure ranges at 100, 150, and 200 psi.

Pressure A.C. Pipe

is used for sewer casings for electric cables and as storm drains.

Non-pressure A.C. Pipe

TYPES OF ASBESTOS CEMENT PIPE

1. Pressure A.C. Pipe


2. Non-pressure A.C. Pipe

It is use to complete change of direction in soil, waste and drain lines in horizontal, vertical and diagonal directions.

Bends (elbows)

It is use for change of direction (diagonal) and branch connections of soil, waste and drain pipes.

Y (wye) branches

It is use to join 3 or 4 pipes at perpendicular directions.

T (tee) branches

made from an alloy of iron, carbon and silicon, with the controlled amounts of manganese, sulfur and phosphorous. This is primarily used for sanitary drain, waste and storm systems.

CAST IRON SOIL PIPE (CISP)

CLASSIFICATIONS OF CAST IRON SOIL PIPE

1. Class A – Extra Heavy (xh) – is often used for underground applications. 2. Class B – Service weight (SV) – is used for general building installations.

is equipped with one hub and one spigot end and used in the installation of plumbing in its full length.

Single hub

is constructed with a hub on each end so it may be cut into two pieces when a short piece of pipe is needed.

Double hub

there is no hub on either ends of the pipe, it is used in lieu of the single hub calking of the pipe is difficult.

Hubless (no hub)

TYPES OF CAST IRON SOIL PIPE

Single hub


Double hub


Hubless (no hub)

TYPES OF JOINTS FOR CAST IRON SOIL PIPE

1. Lead and Oakum (calk joint) 2. Neoprene Compression gasket 3. Stainless Steel Couplings (for Hubless pipe)

that portion of the pipe which, for a short distance, is sufficiently enlarged to receive the end of another pipe of the same diameter for the purpose of making a joint. It is also known as Bell.

Hub

the end of the pipe that fits into a bell or spigot.

SPIGOT

a hemp treated with pitch to make it moisture proof and resistant to the elements contained in the waste.

Oakum

plugging an opening with oakum and lead that are pounded into place.

Calking

is cast in metal molds and compacted by tamping or spinning the molds (centrifugal casting).

Concrete pipe

TYPES OF CONCRETE PIPE

1. Non-reinforced concrete pipe


2. Reinforced concrete pipe (RCP)

is used for drainage, sewer lines and for gravityflow water supply lines if the joints are carefully made. Diameters available range from 100mm. (4”) to 900mm (36”).

Non-reinforced concrete pipe

is made by the addition of steel wire or steel bars and is primarily used for sewage and storm drainage. Diameters available range from 300mm (12”) to 3600mm (144”)

Reinforced concrete pipe (RCP)

is extruded from a suitable grade of shale or clay and fired in kilns producing an extremely hard and dense corrosion resistant material. It is generally used for underground public sewers, house sewers, drainage (sanitary and storm) systems and for industrial wastes such as acids.

Vitrified clay pipe


is available in compositions designed for various applications including drain, waste and vent. (DWV)

PLASTIC PIPES

BASIC TYPES OF PLASTIC PIPE

1. Thermosel Plastic


2. Thermo Plastic

has the property of being permanently rigid. Epoxy and fiber glass are example of this.

Thermosel Plastic

is a material having the property of softening when heated and hardening when cooled.

Thermo Plastic

the high density P.E. spiral pipe (HDPE) is used as drainage and sewer pipe for housing complex, playground, golf course, industrial farm and stock farm.

Polyethylene (PE)

is a thermoplastic type which is composed of molecules of polymers. Each molecule is a long chain made of carbon, hydrogen and other atoms which are melted down and molded.

Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC)

TYPES OF PLASTIC PIPES FOR DRAINAGE SYSTEM

1. Polyethylene (PE)


2. Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC)

(DWV) is designed for above and underground sanitary piping system. It is ideal for drain, waste and vent installation.

uPVC Sanitary pipes (unplasticized)

can be used for main sewer system and other underground waste piping system which requires big diameter pipes.
