Pocster Posted February 23, 2020 Author Posted February 23, 2020 Is it best from a shower waste for example ... The waste has a horizontal fitting . So run horizontal for a bit then 45 degree turn through block floor ? I.e not 90 degrees . Then continue with fall into main internal drain .

Pocster Posted March 3, 2020 Author Posted March 3, 2020 I assume once a toilet waste gets through my beam and block I then want to get it into 110mm ASAP - joining my internal ceiling mounted drain 110mm ? Sink / bath - 32mm into the 110mm ??

Was going to run everything individually into the 110mm - so no ‘pipe sharing ‘ Why anti siphon trap ? Why just on bath ? Assume I could fit this in the baths waste in the ceiling - rather than under the bath ?
joe90 Posted March 3, 2020 Posted March 3, 2020 I ran everything (except loo) in 50mm, as advised by the welsh wizard. 1

joe90 Posted March 3, 2020 Posted March 3, 2020 I ran 50mm under floors and converted to 32mm (fir basin) and 40mm (fir bath) when they came up through floors. 1

I see ! Ok ! I’ll do 32 and 40 off sinks / baths - once through my beam and block swap to 50mm before boss strap into 110mm

Why just on bath ? Assume I could fit this in the baths waste in the ceiling - rather than under the bath ? Sorry, my 32mm basin waste tees into the 50mm bath waste. There's an anti siphon trap on the basin so the emptying of the bath doesn't suck the water out of the basin trap. Don't think you'll need it if not pipe sharing. Edited March 3, 2020 by Onoff 1
Pocster Posted March 4, 2020 Author Posted March 4, 2020 Preliminary test of theory ? Drain through to outside ; got to adjust the clamp length and add a few more . Aiming for 10mm fall per metre ... 1
Pocster Posted March 4, 2020 Author Posted March 4, 2020 Well ! After much faffing ! Measuring off the floor blocks above ; difference between each end is around 20mm . Doesn’t look like much of a fall !!! Should I make it steeper ? Appreciate from the photo you can’t tell ??
Pocster Posted March 5, 2020 Author Posted March 5, 2020 Still doesn’t look like much of a fall . Pipe now nearly 6m Fall is around 5cm . That enough ??
Mr Punter Posted March 5, 2020 Posted March 5, 2020 75mm would be better. 100mm preferred. 50mm only gives you 1:120. Make sure it is properly supported with a bracket every metre. 1

Pocster Posted March 6, 2020 Author Posted March 6, 2020 Awkward work on your own ! First section in and glued . Toilet joint relatively near hole for toilet waste Forgot how nice the glue smells !!
Russell griffiths Posted March 6, 2020 Posted March 6, 2020 I love the smell of napalm in the morning. 1
Russell griffiths Posted March 6, 2020 Posted March 6, 2020 Do you know you don’t need to put that bit of timber up to fix those brackets to. You can get a little insert that you drill a hole in the block poke in insert and screw stud into it and insert expands in the block. I will shut up if you already know this. 1
Onoff Posted March 6, 2020 Posted March 6, 2020 If you were able to drill those concrete beams you could have resin anchored the long studs in.

No I don’t know what you mean ( even though all the timber is up )
