702: FIXTURE UNIT EQUIVALENT
702.1
The Fixture Unit (F.U.) rating of plumbing
fixtures shown on Table 7-2 shall be based on
the size of the trap required, and the fixture
Unit equivalent of fixtures and devices not
shown in Table 7-2 shall be based on the rated
discharge capacity in liters per second in
accordance with the Table 7-3
May 19, 2023

703: SIZE OF DRAINAGE PIPING
703.1
The minimum sizes of vertical and/or
horizontal drainage pipings shall be
determined from the total of all fixture units
connected thereto, and additional, in the case
of vertical drainage pipes, in accordance with
their height or length.
May 19, 2023

703.2
Table 7.5 shows the maximum number of
fixture units allowed on any vertical or
horizontal drainage pipe, building drain or
building sewer of a given size, the maximum
number of fixture units allowed on any branch
interval of a given size, the maximum length
meters of any vertical drainage pipe of a given
size.

Notes:
1. Excluding trap arm.
2. Except sinks, urinals and dishwashers.
3. Except 6 fixture unit traps or water closets.
4 . Only four (4) water closets or 6 fixture unit traps are
allowed on any vertical pipe or stack and not to exceed
three (3) water closets or six (6) fixture unit traps on any
horizontal branch or drain.
5. Based on two (2) percent or 20.9 mm/m slope. For one
(1) percent or 10.4 mm/m slope, multiply horizontal
fixture units by a factor of 0.8.
May 19, 2023

Note:
The diameter of an individual vent shall not be less than 32
mm nor less in size than one-half (1/2) the diameter of the
drain to which it is connected. Fixture unit load values for
drainage and vent piping shall be computed from Tables 7-
2 and 7-3 not to exceed one third (1/3) of the total
permitted length of any vent may be installed in a
horizontal position. When vents are increased one (1) pipe
size for their entire length, the maximum length limitations
specified in this table do not apply.

706: CLEANOUTS
706.1
Each horizontal drainage pipe
shall be provided with a
cleanout at its upper terminal
and each run of piping which
is more than 15 meters in total
developed length shall be
provided with a cleanout and
at every 15 meter length or a
fraction thereof.
