It was

6、 prepared by Technical Committee B/505, Waste water engineering. A list of organizations represented on this committee can be obtained on request to its secretary.Relationship with other publicationsThis British Standard should be read in conjunction with BS EN 12056-3.BS EN 12056-3 deals with the l

7、ayout and calculation of roof drainage. The provisions for non-siphonic systems are described in detail, but those for siphonic systems are limited to performance requirements. The standard applies to all materials used for roof drainage systems.This British Standard gives information facilitating t

8、he use of BS EN 12056-3 in the United Kingdom with regard to siphonic roof drainage systems; it does not alter any of the provisions of that standard. It is based upon work carried out under a separate study part-funded by the Department of Trade and Industry as part of its Partners in Innovation sc

9、heme 1.The study involved extensive consultation with manufacturers and installers of siphonic roof drainage systems used in the UK and also with specifiers.Use of this documentAs a guide, this British Standard takes the form of guidance and recommendations. It should not be quoted as if it were a s

10、pecification and particular care should be taken to ensure that claims of compliance are not misleading.This British Standard has been prepared to give information about the majority of installations of siphonic systems but it is impractical to cover every eventuality. In some particular cases, it m

11、ight not be possible to reflect all the provisions of this standard. In such cases it is advisable to discuss any departures with the client or the clients appropriately qualified representative.Any user claiming compliance with this British Standard is expected to be able to justify any course of a

12、ction that deviates from its recommendations.Presentational conventionsThe provisions in this standard are presented in roman (i.e. upright) type. Its recommendations are expressed in sentences in which the principal auxiliary verb is “should”.Commentary, explanation and general informative material

13、 is presented in italic type, and does not constitute a normative element.Contractual and legal considerationsThis publication does not purport to include all the necessary provisions of a contract. Users are responsible for its correct application.Compliance with a British Standard cannot confer im

14、munity from legal obligations. BSI 2007 1BS 8490:2007IntroductionBS EN 12056-3:2000, 6.2 specifies the performance requirements for siphonic systems as follows:6.2.1 The system shall drain the runoff from the impermeable area served, calculated in accordance with clause 4, without taking gutter stor

15、age into consideration. It is recommended that the recurrence period method (see 4.2.1) should be used whenever possible.6.2.2 For flat roof drainage, the system shall conform to clause 5.4. For gutter drainage, the system shall conform to clauses 5.1 and 5.2.6.2.3 The siphonic effect shall commence

16、 quickly enough to prevent design water depths on the roof or in the gutter being exceeded.6.2.4 The flow capacity of individual outlets shall be balanced to ensure the entire system performs as specified.6.2.5 The siphonic system shall be designed to take into account any surcharging of the buried

17、drainage.6.2.6 Pipes and fittings shall withstand the maximum positive and negative pressures encountered under design conditions.6.2.7 The minimum velocity in the system at the design rainfall shall be chosen to prevent deposition in pipework and to ensure rapid commencement of the siphonic effect.

18、6.2.8 Outlets shall be fitted with strainers to exclude solid material and prevent blockages. The effect of a strainer on water levels in gutters or on flat roofs shall be taken into account.6.2.9 The minimum internal pipe diameter, di, shall be 32 mm.6.2.10 The design method shall be validated by p

19、hysical testing.6.2.11 The lowest design pressure shall be chosen to prevent possible cavitation damage and collapse of pipes.6.2.12 Reductions in diameter in the direction of flow are permitted in siphonic systems.6.2.13 The system shall be installed in accordance with the design assumptions. The e

20、ffect of any difference between the design and the system as installed shall be calculated and appropriate action taken.BS 8490:20072 BSI 20071 ScopeThis British Standard applies to roof drainage systems using circular-section pipes that operate under siphonic action. It does not apply to siphonic d

21、rainage systems using rectangular or trapezoidal section conduits for water conveyance.It gives information and provides guidance on design parameters, installation, verification and maintenance needs of siphonic roof drainage systems conforming to the performance requirements specified in BS EN 120

22、56-3:2003, 6.2. Guidance is also given on carrying out checks of designs, for the use of specifiers and regulatory authorities.Particular issues for site drainage systems that receive flows from siphonic roof drainage systems are also covered.2 Normative referencesThe following referenced documents

45、following points should be addressed. An effective periodic maintenance regime should be implemented to prevent accumulations of debris (e.g. leaves etc.) blocking rainwater outlets at roof or gutter level. Correctly dimensioned siphonic systems might have less reserve capacity than that of equivale

46、nt gravity systems and therefore adequate safety margins should be considered, i.e. design safety factors and/or suitable overflows should be included. If a siphonic system is subject to a change (during construction and/or throughout the life of the building), a hydraulic reassessment of the system

47、 should be carried out.4.2 When operating under full-bore flow, a siphonic roof drainage system creates a direct flow path between roof level and the site drainage system to which it discharges. Problems below ground can therefore cause flooding at roof level. For this reason, siphonic systems shoul

48、d be designed as an integral component of the building and the drainage infrastructure of the site. Designers of buildings should therefore ensure that appropriate information on requirements for satisfactory installation and operation of siphonic systems is exchanged with others responsible for the

49、 design of roofs, gutters, structures and site drainage systems (see also Clause 13).
