Portland cement mortar <br />joints sh,ll not be -~]owed. Lines sh~] provide a grade of not less <br />than ~125-/nch per foot~ Where buil~ling sewers exceed 50 feet in <br />length, lines sba]] provide a grade which will allow a flow velocity <br />of not less than 2 feet per second. In no case shall the grade <br />exceed 2%. Ail changes of grade shall be by means of long sweep <br />ells. Where long sweep ells are not used and where the direction <br />changes by more than 20.5 degrees, accessible watertight clean- <br />outs shall be provided. <br /> <br />Sub& ~. Septic tant~ <br /> <br />a. General. All tanks, regardless of material or method of <br /> construction, shall be: <br /> <br />1. One piece, precast; <br /> <br />2. Watertight; <br /> <br />3. So designed and constructed as to withstand all lateral earth <br /> pressures under saturated soft conditions with the tank <br /> empty;, <br /> <br />4. So designed and constructed as to withstand a r~uimum of 7 <br /> feet of saturated earth cover above the tank top; <br /> <br /> Not subject to excessive corrosion or decay. <br /> <br /> of <br /> <br />Design. All tanks, regardless of material or method <br />construction, sim// conform to the following design criteria. <br /> <br />1. <br /> <br /> The liquid depth of ~ny septic t~uk or compartment thereof <br /> shall be not less than 30 inches. A liquid depth greater than <br /> 6.5 feet shall not be considered in dete~-,~n~ng t~nl~ capacity. <br /> <br />2. No tank or compartment thereof shall have an inside <br /> horizontal c]~mension less than 24 inches. <br /> <br />3. Inlet and outlet connections of the t~nk shall be submerged <br /> by means ofb~es. <br /> <br />4. The volt,me in the't~nk between the liquid surface and the <br /> top of the in]et and outlet b~ffles shall be not less than 20% of <br /> the total requ/red I/qu/d capacity, except that in horizontal <br /> cylindrical t~nks, this space shall be not ]ess than 15% of the <br /> total required 1/quid capacity. <br /> <br />5. Inlet and outlet baffles sh~]l be constructed of acid resistant <br /> concrete, add resistant fiberglass, or plastic. <br /> <br />Printed 12/28/90 <br /> <br />Page 241 <br /> <br /> <br />
