RECOMMENDATIONS FOR SIZING HORIZONTAL FINAL PIPEWORK

In order to determine the simultaneous coefficient, apply the recommendations from the DTU.
Supply direct flush systems separately.

*The formula presented here is with regards to general use.
In the event of intensive use due to spikes in consumption (schools during break time, stadiums during half time, etc.), consult the project manager in order to establish the adequate
level of simultaneity.
The constant of 0.8 can therefore be increased to a maximum of 2.
1. Collect installation data for each branch Probable flow rate
Example: Then multiply the gross flow rate (Q) with the simultaneous
A figure A B coefficient (Y) in order to determine the probable flow rate.

2. Calculate the design flow rate per installation branch
For direct flush, follow the recommendations in table 2.
Add the base flow rates from the different fittings. For 12 flush valves installed, there will only be 2 used simultaneously.
See Q min. calculation table 2.

• ABC branch: basins & urinals
To determine the simultaneous coefficient, follow
the recommendations in table 2 and apply the formula: (V) Design velocity = 2 m/sec.
