The slope of the pipe is determined by the size of the pipe and the volume expected to run through it. 2 1/2 inch or less = 1/4" per foot 3 to 6 inch = 1/8" per foot 8 inch and larget = 1/16th per foot This information is in the International Plumbing Code 2006, Table 704.1. You should check with your local building department to verify this information is applicable in your area. Hope this helps! Terry, CBO
Depends on the size of the pipe and your local code-But 1/4 inch fall per foot will accomdate every size pipe in every code.
Wouldnt that depend on the diameter of the piping?=12" drainage requires less pitch then 4"=
For 100mm pipes, the type normally used for residential drainage, the minimum acceptable falls are 1:40 for Foul Water and 1:100 for Surface Water. Larger diameter pipes may have gentler gradients in certain circumstances.
There are a number of ways a building could be built on a mountain that would affect the drainage. Buildings should be built so that drainage falls to the steepest incline on the mountain.
Drainage basin is also called catchment, catchment area, catchment basin, drainage area, river basin, and water basin. It is an area of land. All water that falls on that land flows into one river.

The minimum drinking age in Niagara Falls, New York is 21.
It either soaks into the soil or it runs downhill (drainage), or it evaporates.
A drainage divide on a mountain peak is a boundary separating water flow into different drainage basins on either side of the peak. Water that falls on one side of the peak flows into one river system, while water on the other side flows into a different river system.
answ2. Wetlands are a function of lack of drainage, not of rainfall. There are swamps in the Quattara Depression in Egypt. But the area is pretty dry.
Depends on the type of ground it falls on. Pavement - internal and external damage which may require a new camera. Grass - possible internal damage, but not likely. It is possible that your retractable lens function might get screwed up.
When a body falls at that speed, chances are great that death will result from serious injuries, like broken bones, internal injuries, and more.
Water that falls to the ground west of the continental divide flows to the west to end in the Pacific Ocean.Water that falls to the ground east of the continental divide flows to the east to end in the Gulf of Mexico or the Atlantic Ocean.
