Yes, but there are requirements for vertical distance between the sewer and water main (generally at least 18 inches) and materials of construction. One reference is the so-called 10 State Standards (Section 38.3). If you do not have access to this publication (e.g., you are a homeowner), check with your local building department.

How do repair collapsed main sewer clay pipe?

You must find where the pipe is collapsed usually by snake in till you hit the break or uncovering the pipe till you find the break. Cut both ends of the break with a saw or chain cutter so you have a nice smooth end. Install a rubber coupling on both ends slid onto your clay pipe. Measure and cut a replacement piece of pipe to fit between, slide rubber boots over the seams and tighten. Be careful not to over tighten and rebreak the pipe. Sewer lines have little to no pressure so a snug tightening will do. Run water down line and look for a leak. Cover and silt in dirt and you are ready to go.


What is the different between local buckling and lateral buckling?

Main difference between local and overall buckling related to distortion of the overall system geometry. Local buckling does not cause distortion of the overall geometry, usually local buckling seems on short (channel or angle) compression members (excessive loaded and material related problem). On the other hand overall buckling causes distortion, we can give example as plastic ruler compressed by fingers . There is equation on buckling developed by Euler.

What is the center line method?

Centre line method:This method is suitable for walls of similar cross sections. Here the total centre line length is multiplied by breadth and depth of respective item to get the total quantity at a time. When cross walls or partitions or verandah walls join with main wall, the centre line length gets reduced by half of breadth for each junction. Such junction or joints are studied carefully while calculating total centre line length. The estimates prepared by this method are most accurate and quick.
