Total number of Accommodation demands ,Work force demand and Water demand
• Total number of Storeys =8
• In One storey
Number of 2 person units =2
Number of 4 person units =4
Residential Accommodators = 2*3 + 4*5
= 26
• Total Residential Accommodators = 26*8
= 208
• Non residential Accommodators
Cleaning Staffs =4
Security Staffs =2
Total = 4+2
=6
• Water Demand For,
Residential Accommodators = 220 l/head/day
Non Residential Accommodators = 50 l/head/day

• Total Water Demand For the Building = 208*220 + 6*50


= 46 060 l/day

Sizing Overhead Tank
Supply Capacity
24 Hours 0
24 Hours to 12 Hours 1 day
6 Hours to 12 Hours 1.5 day
Less than 6 Hours 2 days

Calculations :
For 12 – 24 hours supply,
Capacity = 1.0 days
Size of the tank required = 46 060 l/day* 1.0days = 46 060 liters
5*10000 l tank will be provided.
