wow amazing all the notches that u guys did on all d studs its not gonna pass plus the trap that u have installed is not legal its an s-trap....upside alittle bit on your cold water..

[TheOldkid888]

Well,3 inch pipe grades at 1/4 of a inch per foot (code).There is an s-trap installed for the shower and it is actually illegal.Venting is required for plumbing systems for proper drainage and also to prevent syphonage when other fixtures are draining.36 inch foundation would be the footer and not foundation.Washing machines are 11/2 fixture units and require a 11/2 half drain line with a 11/4 vent line.To the diy-plan out your job well and research as much as possible.Do it nice or twice.G.L.

what a shoddy job ........ that copper needs an abortion

[zacefrongte2009]

That p-trap looked like it didn't have a vent on it and it was configured as an s-trap. That's illegal in these neck of the woods. But different municipalities allow different ways of doing things....

Where are the post tension cables???

[2020starman]

@Michshnly not all slabs are post tension

[shauntampa]

that copper job looked horrible

[oldsoldier17]

does using more of a pitch like a 3/8 or 1/2 inch pitch better than a 1/4 inch pitch or no?

[tyjezowski]

@oldsoldier17 no. too much pitch is bad cause the water will pass the solids leaving them to dry and cake your pipe closed

how do i connect a toilet to the main drain? im building a kinda shed like house ? and i need to know how to do it?

[billabongcocker]

main sewer is 3'? in canada a main building drain is min 4"

[tyjezowski]

@billabongcocker nope. it can be 3". only has to be 4" after a a third water closet otherwise can be 3". everyone puts in 4 cuz you get away with 1/8 grade instead of 1/4

[PabloStella2]

not to mention that on paper the minimum size for a 2 inch stack is an 11/4 vent. depending on fixture units

[PabloStella2]

minimum grade on 3 inch pipe is 1/4 inch in canada. so be careful

[uaplumber23]
