Lespearsons Posted May 16, 2005 Share Posted May 16, 2005 I have to run a new soil pipe to join up with our existing soil pipe which connects to main drainage. Does any one know if there are any rules regarding depth of pipe and am I right in thinking the drop should be about 1:100?Thanks in advanceKeith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caterham7 Posted May 16, 2005 Share Posted May 16, 2005 Keith,I can't comment on any french regulations but Uk minimum gradient for 100mm foul water with min one WC connected is 1:80,if no WC connected 1:40.1:80 is quite shallow and we generally try to design to 1:60 to reduce the chance of blockage.No minimum cover is required on private land,but try to achieve 450mm.Regards Tonyps If anyone knows if the French regulations are differant please let us know.
