Minimum Prescribed Standards For Digestive Chamber Minimum Width: 900 mm. Minimum Length: 1500 mm. Minimum Depth: 1200 mm. to 1500 mm. Leaching Chamber ½ of Digestive Chamber
Works only with Occupant Load of 12 or less*
Minimum Prescribed Standards Constants to review: Single Household Residential: 2.0 cu. m. ST Multi-Family Residential: 0.17 cu. m./Person Others: 0.086 cu. m./Person Procedure 1. Multiply the Occupant Load depending on the occupancy to get the cu. m. requirement 2. Assume the following: 1. Width and; 2. Depth, not Limited to the Prescribed Minimum Standards 3. Get the Length (Volume=LxWxH) 4. ½ of the derived volume is the Leaching Chamber Sample Problem 1. Determine the Following: 1. Volume of Digestive Chamber 2. Volume of Leaching Chamber
3. Effective Dimension of Septic Tank
For a Commercial Building with 250 Occupant Load
Sample Problem 1. Determine the Following: 1. Volume of Digestive Chamber 250 x 0.86 = 215 cu. m. 2. Volume of Leaching Chamber 215/2 = 107.5 cu. m. 3. Effective Dimension of Septic Tank For a Commercial Building with 250 Occupant Load
