Step 8.
Calculate the Average Permissible Friction Loss per
100 meter length of pipe
(Pf).
Pf = (Pa TEL) 100
where: Pa = Pressure available for friction loss in the pipes
TEL = Total Effective Length of pipe
A 3.4 The pressure available for friction loss in kPa divided by the
developed length of pipe from the water (street) main to the highest
fixture times one hundred (100), will be the average permissible
friction loss per 30.4 m length of pipe.
Step 9. Using The Demand Load and the Average Permissible
friction Loss (Pa) determine an approximate pipe size that is
closest to the velocity of 3 meters per second. Use the Charts:
A-5, A-6 and A-7
A 4.1 Knowing the permissible friction loss per 30.4 m of pipe and
the total demand, the diameter of the building supply pipe may be
obtained from charts A-4, A-5, A-6, or A-7, whichever is applicable.
The diameter of the pipe on or next above the coordinate point
corresponding to the estimated total demand and the permissible
friction loss will be the size needed up to the first branch from the
building supply pipe.
