Explain the Conditions Requiring for Drainage.

Expert Solution

Step 1

Drainage is defined as a method of removing the excess of water from the surface and below the surface. It can be done naturally or artificially.

Step 2

The requirements for outdoor systems are given below.

The diameter of pipes should be at least 100 mm.
The minimum angle between the discharge pipe and pipe is 90°.
The installation depth of the pipeline should be at least 0.5 m except for areas where vehicles may ride for these areas it should be 0.7 m at least.
The inspection chambers should be made for regular cleaning and maintenance of pipelines.
There should not be any displacement in connections of the pipeline as the integrity of the system is disturbed due it.
For areas which intersect with highways, areas with increased load the pipes, which can withstand the load of vehicles and pedestrians, should be installed.
