Install Rain Drainage System: 6000 m2 - 9.5 m 6" Pipe Every 10 m

AI Thread Summary
The discussion focuses on installing a rain drainage system for a 6000 m2 area, divided into two 3000 m2 sections, utilizing a downward 9.5-meter 6-inch pipe every 10 meters. The main outlet pipe, which collects water from both sections, will run horizontally for 10 meters and has a total length of 150 meters with a slope of 2 cm per meter. Participants emphasize the importance of defining "medium" rainfall and suggest calculating the maximum rainfall rate in mm over a minute for accurate drainage planning. Clarifications are made regarding the building's dimensions, which are 40 meters by 150 meters, and the layout of the drainage system. Overall, the discussion highlights the need for precise measurements and considerations for effective rainwater management.

I have a hanger i need to install rain drainage system, note the rain in the area is medium.

Dual areas total of 6000 m2 will collect water. Each area 3000 m2 will have a downward 9.5 meter 6" pipe every 10 meters and goes horizontally 10 meters for the main outlet pipe. both 3000 m2 area would use the same outlet line. This mean that the main outlet line would collect the water coming from the 6000 m2.

Note I'm considering slope of 2 cm/meter because the total length of the main outlet pipe would be 150 meters.

Please advice regarding the main pipe.

How do you define medium?

You will need to know the absolute maximum rate of rainfall in mm over a period of about one minute.

Every 10 metres along what? You have not specified the building linear dimensions, only area.
Does the 150m main outlet run along the centre and is it the same length as the building?
 
Max. 30mm per hour

Every 10 meters, a 6 inches pipe runs down from the ceiling.
the buidling is 40 meters by 150 meter long and yes the line will run out along the hanger

I'm trying to decide what size and type of galvanized steel I need for 2 cantilever extensions. The cantilever is 5 ft. The space between the two cantilever arms is a 17 ft Gap the center 7 ft of the 17 ft Gap we'll need to Bear approximately 17,000 lb spread evenly from the front of the cantilever to the back of the cantilever over 5 ft. I will put support beams across these cantilever arms to support the load evenly
Thread 'What's the most likely cause for this carbon seal crack?'
We have a molded carbon graphite seal that is used in an inline axial piston, variable displacement hydraulic pump. One of our customers reported that, when using the “A” parts in the past, they only needed to replace them due to normal wear. However, after switching to our parts, the replacement cycle seems to be much shorter due to “broken” or “cracked” failures. This issue was identified after hydraulic fluid leakage was observed. According to their records, the same problem has occurred...
