Why is it important to position waste pipe systems and soil pipe systems with care inside buildings?
To improve the aesthetics of the building
To save money on materials
To prevent damage to the building fabric
To make it easier to install the pipes
What happens if notching of joists is done when the pipe is greater in diameter than 1/8 of the joist depth?
The joist strength will be severely compromised
The joist will become stronger
The pipe will be easier to install
The pipe will become unstable
Can waste pipe systems and soil pipe systems be positioned across the joist run?
Yes, it is the recommended positioning
No, it is not recommended
It doesn't matter
Only if the pipes are small in diameter
What is the maximum diameter of the pipe that can be notched into a joist?
1/8 of the joist depth
1/2 of the joist depth
The full joist depth
1/4 of the joist depth
What is the purpose of positioning pipes with the joist run?
To improve the aesthetics of the building
To save money on materials
To prevent damage to the building fabric
To make it easier to install the pipes
Why are waste pipe systems and soil pipe systems difficult to position under floors?
Because they are fragile
Because they require large pipe sizes
Because they are heavy
Because they are expensive
What should NOT be done when positioning waste pipe systems and soil pipe systems?
Positioning them across the joist run
Positioning them with the joist run
Notching of joists
Positioning them under floors
What will happen if notching of joists is done when the pipe is greater in diameter than 1/8 of the joist depth?
The joist will become weaker
The pipe will be easier to remove
The joist strength will be improved
The pipe will become more stable
