Drainage Calculation

This document provides design criteria and calculations for the plumbing system of a 1604 B+G+1+PH Outpatient Complex project in Al-Wukair91, Qatar. It was last revised on June 15, 2017. The project includes 10 beds that can accommodate 20 patients and additional staff/visitors totaling around 350 people per day. Calculations determine the total drainage fixtures units to be 107.1. Using this and formulas from plumbing codes, the minimum discharge pipe size is calculated to be 200mm diameter.

Total Drainage Fixtures Units (DU)
107.1
l/sec=
* refer pg 7-41 from 2006 International Plumbing Code
Total Drainage Fixtures Units as per the table above `= 107.00
Using Formulae: Q=k√ƩDU
* Plumbing Engineering service design guide, refer attached
Flow rate Q = Flow rate
k= 0.7 for hospital
DU= Drainage Fixture Units
Calculated Flow rate Q= 7.24 L/sec
Flow rate Q = 0.00724 cum/sec

Using formula:
Q= AV
Q= the flow rate or quantity of water (Cum/Sec)
A= area of water fowing (sqm)
v= the velocity of flow (m/sec)
0.75m/sec (it is acceptable minimum to achieve self cleansing & it is flowing half-full
Transposing the formula:
A= Q/v
Substituting the value,
A= 0.00724/0.75
A= 0.00965 Sqm
Since the proportional depth is 0.50, therefore the full bore area of pipe will be 0.00965 sqm x 2 = 0.01930 sqm

Using the formula of circle:


A= π r2
Transposing the formula
r= √A/π
r= √.001930/3.142
Radius, r= 0.0783 m=78.38mm
D= 78.38x2 = 156.77mm
Diameter, D= 156.77mm
Therefore the final discharge pipe size : 200mmø
The nearest commercial size is 150mm & 200mm , we recommend to use 200mm ø .
