ECONOMIC ASPECTS OF BUILDING SERVICES
Building services including heating ventilation and air conditioning
grab lions share of total building cost about 50% share of total cost
in common buildings to over 80% of total cost in the sports buildings.
PLUMBING
Plumbing: working with plumbum or lead; a plumber is somebody who
works with plumbum. It is originally derived from Roman civilization
practice: people used lead pipes in domestic plumbing around 40 BC.
In modern practice lead is used only in seals of water pipes. The
metal gets dissolved in soft waters and causes toxicity.
USA recently enacted legislation to remove lead from all water supply
networks. Fitting water supply pipelines in buildings and premises
however continues being called plumbing.
Historical Developments
Indus Valley Civilizations at Harappa and Mohenjodaro, about 2500
BC, used copper and iron pipes in domestic water supplies.
Formal plumbing with piped water supply and flushed toilets was
introduced in India by Britons during 19th century. Most plumbing
systems therefore have influence of British design.
Some Indian architects underwent training in USA during post
independence period, which influenced plumbing designs in
multistoried buildings. India adapted UPC India 2008 from IPC, USA.

Using Moodys diagram, e/D = 45x10 /50.8x10 = 0.000089 => f = 0.029
Using tabulated value, f = 19 x 10-3
Using Hazen Williams formula, V= 0.849 CR0.63S0.54 =>
2 = 0.849 x100x (50.8x10-3 /4)0.63S0.54 =>
S = 0.158 = hL/L = fV2/2gD
=> f = 2gDS/V2 = 2x9.81x 50.8x10-3x 0.158/22 = 0.039.
Therefore head-loss = fLV2/2gD = 0.52 m by formula; 2.29 m by
tabulated f, 3.5 m by Moodys Diagram, and 4.7 m by Hazen Williams
formula. Use conservative estimate for design => head loss = 4.7 m.

PUMPING MACHINERY
Pump Capacity requires specifying the following two quantities:
Rating = flow rate (lps) e.g. 24 lpm pump
Power = h Q /
= unit weight of water, 9.81 kN/m3
h = Total pumping head, m
Q = Total flow rate, m3/s
= Pump Efficiency
Centrifugal pumps are 60 to 85% efficient.
Bernoullis equation is used to calculate total pumping head.
Total pumping head Static head difference + total head loss
Total head loss Major head loss, due to pipe friction + Minor head loss,
due to pipe fittings.
For example for 2 in diameter main at 2m/s, flow Q=0.004 m3/s. If total
lift is 30m then total head loss = major head loss 4.57m + minor head
loss, say 30% of major head loss, 1.37m = 5.94m => Power required
for pumping = 9.81 x (30+5.94) x 0.004/0.7 = 2 kW. Electric motors
are about 90 percent efficient => Electricity required = 2/0.9 = 2.3 kW.
WATER HAMMER

(1/K
d/Et)
WATER HAMMER
Nominal water hammer pressure for 3 steel pipes in municipal water
supply is 840 kN/m2. Water hammer pressure developed in smaller
diameter pipes used in building water supply is more than this value.
Causes of Water Hammer
Sudden closure of non return valves when pumps are shut-off
automatically, and
Sudden closure of quick closing valves at ground floor under high
pressure conditions.
Water Hammer Control Measures
Installation of water hammer arresters in the riser pipes
Proper gate and check valves for prevention of sudden closures, and
Piping designs restricting water pressure to permissible limits by
vertical hydraulic zoning, pressure reducing valves, etc.
AIR CHAMBERS
Source: IPC 2012
AIR CHAMBER
Air chambers are large
diameter pipes (2 3 times
the
pipe
connection)
usually 450-750 mm long.
They have air trapped in
top portion which absorbs
the water hammer shock
waves.
They
are
sometimes
placed on top of a riser
pipe depending on the
pressure conditions.
They are provided with a
shut-off valve, a drain valve
and an air vent cock to
periodically renew the air.

Hydraulic Elements: h = D d
= 2 cos-1[ (D - 2h)/D ]
A = D2 /4 D2( sin)/8
P = D D/2
R = A/P
Design Procedure: Assume a pipe diameter and verify the following; otherwise
revise the diameter.
Check: Carrying capacity > Maximum flow at 0.8 depth and V=1m/s
Find depth at minimum flow using 0.8m/s velocity and find pipe slope for this
velocity.
Calculate depth of flow and velocity at maximum flow for the pipe slope
calculated in previous step. This velocity should be less than pipe materials
scousing velocity.
EXAMPLE
Design a sewer pipe for 100 occupancy in a residential building.
Solution
Assume water supply rate at 200 lpcd.
Assume wastewater produced at about 80% of water supplied.
Average flow of wastewater generated from the building is therefore
0.8x100x200 = 16000 L/d = 1.84x10-4 m3/s.
Minimum flow = 16000/3 = 5333 L/d = 0.61x10-4 m3/s
Maximum flow = 2x16000 = 32000 L/d = 3.7x10-4 m3/s
Normally 100mm diameter CI pipes are used in house sewers.
Check for carrying capacity at 0.8 depth:
h=0.2D, =2cos-1(0.6)=1060=1.85 rad
A = x0.12/4 0.12( sin)/8
= 7.85x10-3-0.01(1.85-sin 106)/8 = 6.74x10-3m2 .
At 3 m/s velocity, flow = 6.74x10-3 m2x3m/s = 0.02m3/s > maximum
flow. OK.
