= 1,734 points

v) As complying to regulations, every installation valve should feed not more than
1000 sprinkler points, thus;

Required Installation Valve = sprinkler's head / 1000

= 1.7335

= 2 installation valves

8 Equivalent length of straight pipe fitting

a 2 Elbow : 5 ft x 6 Nos. = 30 ft
b 2 Gate valve : 2 ft x 1 Nos. = 2 ft
c 2 Tee : 10 ft x 10 Nos. = 100 ft
d 2 Check Valve : 17 ft x 1 Nos. = 17 ft

9 Total equivalent length ( as calculated from 8. ) = 149 ft

10 Total length of pipe 310 ft + 149 ft = 459 ft

11 Friction loss :
f = 0.2083 (100/c)1.852 q1.852 / dh4.8655

Where : f = Friction head loss in feet of water per 100 feet of pipe
(ftH20 / 100 ft pipe)
c = Hazen-Williams roughness constant,
120 , for G.I pipe.
q = volumetric flow (gal/min)
dh = inside hydraulic diameter, 2 inches.

Therefore,

f = 3.071 ft / 100 ft

Friction loss : 459 ft x 3.071 /100 ft = 14.11 ft

Total pressure required at pump head : 164 ft + 67 ft + 14.11 ft

= 245 ft
