I really appreciate your effort and time providing details. This is being discussed with the Builder now. I will use this info while talking to them. I will update this thread as I get more details as this could help others as well. Once again... thanks a lot. Re: Drainage issues - Can someone please help.... 17Apr 15, 2019 11:13 pm An additional fact that you need to know to understand the system is that the friction loss expressed as equivalent pipe length of the pipe between the pit and the intersecting junction is about 46m. A 250 mm water level above the pipe's invert in the pit will provide a maximum flow rate of about 390 lpm provided that the intersecting water through the junction has good velocity and (I think) not act as a flow restriction that the current slow flow from dp 1, 2, 3 & 4 does. The real life pit to kerb figure will be less than this because of the flow restricting and volume reducing entrained air produced from jetting water in communication from dp5 and dp6 to the stormwater pipe (the same cause of the bubbling you have seen in the pit) and also from the additional intersecting water in the junction and the remaining pipe to kerb, the reason why achieving good stratified flow velocity from dp1, dp2 & dp3 will be vital. There will be some minor pipe slope between the junction and the kerb. There would be no air entrainment generated by the 32mm valve because it would operate under full flow conditions but fitting an air release valve further along the storm water pipe will need consideration. There are also a couple of other but similar variations to my initial suggestion. NOTE: The surface level at the junction is 200mm lower than at the pit but we don’t know what the pipe’s depth at the junction is. The plumber however has said that the cam showed ponding in the pipe and it would be expected that the pipe depth at the junction was not as deep as the pipe level in the pit. No allowance for any additional (unknown) pipe slope was made in the head/flow calculations but some minor additional head should be reasonably expected. 3in1 Supadiverta.
