Summary
The peak sewage flow from the building in Part 1a is estimated with reference to international and local guidelines.
For checking purpose, the sewage estimation method adopted by Environmental Protection Department is presented in Part 1b.
Justification of pipe size is summarized in Part 1c.
In brief, 1 No. of Ø 225mm sewer pipe with fall 1:40 is proposed for conveying sewage from the development
to the existing foul water manhole FWD4075416
Peak sewerage discharge from the development consists of the following sources:-
(a) discharge from sanitary fitments Qa;
(b) discharge from kitchen Qb;
(c) discharge from vehicle maintenace area and lift sump pit Qc; and
(d) discharge from cleansing water points Qd.
A. Estimated sewage discharge from sanitary fitments (based on Plumbing Engineering Services Design Guide (2002),
Chartered Institute of Plumbing and Heating Engineering (CIPHE))
- According to the Design Guide (2002), the probable simultaneous discharge flow for sanitary fitments in a building
can be estimated using the following equation:-
- It is assumed that the Frequency of Use (K) for the building is equivalent to frequent use, i.e. K = 0.7*.
*K values were extracted from Table 6, P.112, Plumbing Engineering Services Design Guide (2002).

Shower 10 0.40 4.00
Total DU = 244.40
*DU values were extracted from Table 5, P.112, Plumbing Engineering Services Design Guide (2002).
- According to ProPECC 5/93, kitchen discharge flow rate is estimated based on the following information:-
(a) Daily average water consumption = 0.50 m3/m2 kitchen area/day (Appendix C, ProPecc 5/93)
(b) Assumed time of operation = 16.00 hours (Appendix C, ProPecc 5/93)
(c) Kitchen area (A) = 187.00 m2
(d) Peaking factor (PF) = 1.92 (Interpolated from Appendix C, ProPecc 5/93)
The discharged kitchen waste water is collected by a sump pit. The submersible pumpset
inside will deliver a flow of 5 L/s.
C. Estimated sewage discharge from vehicle maintenace area and sump pits
- Discharge flow rate from sump pit serving vehicle maintenace area = 10.00 L/s
- Discharge flow rate from lift sump pit = 1.00 L/s
The sewage discharge from cleansing water points Qd == no. of cleansing points x flow rate per cleansing water point
= 3 x 0.15
= 0.45 L/s
1b Estimation of Sewage Flow using figures in EPD/TP1/05 Guidelines for Estimating Sewage Flows for
Sewage Infrastructure Planning, published by Environmental Protection Department
- According to Table T-2 of the Guidelines , unit flow factor per employee is as follows:-
- The average dry weather flow (DWF) and peak discharge flow are estimated as follows:-
(v) =
(i) (ii) (iii) (iv) = (i) x (ii) (vi) (vii) = (v) x (vi)
(iv)/((iii)*3.6)

Peaking factor is extracted from Table T-5 (a), with stormwater allowance excluded for a population in between 1000 - 5000).
- Compared with Part 1a, the estimated peak sewage discharge flow has a difference of 5.2 L/s.

- It is assumed that the Manning's roughness coefficient (n) = 0.013 ('Good' vitrified sewer pipe, Table 6,
Sewerage Manual (with Eurocodes incorporated) Part 1 (2013), published by Drainage Services Department )
- For 1 no. 225 mm dia. sewage pipe with a gradient fall of 1/40 ,
the sewage flow of 18.5 L/s is slightly less than the capacity of 1/3 bore flow of 19.248 L/s,
with a flow velocity slightly lower than 1.47 m/s > 0.7m/s , i.e. minimum self-cleansing velocity for sewers of
diamters less than 300mm as stipulated in the Sewaerage Manual Part 1 )
Conclusion
The proposed Ø 225mm sewer pipe with 1/40 fall is adequate to carry the sewage from site and has satifactory self-cleansing velocity.
