Induced Siphonage. Discharge from one appliance creates a vacuum in another appliances branch pipe. Back Pressure. Excess pressure due to resistance at the base of a stack. large radius bends are therefore used. Self Siphonage. Suction created as an appliance discharges into the stack. Negative pressure is created when total Bernoulli head downstream exceeds that upstream due to large pressure and/or velocity gradients. It damages the water seal of appliances and foul air enters the building.
FULLY VENTED SINGLE STACK SYSTEM The fully vented single stack system is used in
buildings where there are a large number of sanitary appliances in ranges, e.g. factories, schools, offices and hospitals. The trap on each appliances is fitted with the anti-siphon or vent pipe. Individual vent pipes combine in a common vent in a range, which is inclined until it meets the vertical vent stack. The vent stack may be left open to atmosphere or it may connect to the main stack at a point above the spillover level of the highest appliance. The bottom of vent stack is connected to the main stack close to the bottom rest bend to relieve any compression at this point. Diameter of vent = half the diameter of main stack above 100mm dia; Two third for 50mm dia.
DRAINAGE IN BASEMENTS
Free Board = 300 mm Two compartments of 2:1 volume ratio are preferred.
