Question 3
A 44-foot run of 2-inch horizontal sanitary drain begins at invert elevation 101.50 feet and ends at 100.50 feet. Wisconsin requires at least 1/4 inch of fall per foot for this pipe size. How should the installation be evaluated?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D - It complies; the actual fall is approximately 0.273 inch per foot
Question 4
A public-building sanitary sump receives two public water closets plus other fixtures for a total connected load of 22 DFU. What pumping arrangement is required?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B - Duplex pumping equipment, because the connected load exceeds 20 DFU
Question 5
A nonpublic bathroom group uses the lavatory drain as a horizontal wet vent for two showers and two water closets. Pipe sizes and fixture ordering meet the wet-vent provisions. A separately vented laundry tray also discharges into the wet-vented section. Which revision preserves the bathroom-group wet vent?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B - Move the separately vented laundry connection downstream of the wet-vented section
Question 6
An air-admittance valve test begins at 1.00 inch of water column. After one minute, the gauge reads 0.65 inch; a pressure drop of no more than 0.50 inch is permitted. How should the result be interpreted?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D - Pass it because the pressure loss is 0.35 inch
Question 7
At design flow, a remote fixture is 32 feet above the water-service entry. Available pressure is 74 psi; elevation loss is 0.433 psi per foot, device losses total 9 psi, piping losses total 15 psi, and the fixture requires 20 psi residual. What does the completed pressure budget show?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A - About 36 psi remains, so the fixture meets the required residual pressure
Question 8
A new private water main was disinfected at 200 ppm chlorine for three hours, then flushed. The contractor collected the bacteriological sample eight hours after the disinfection period ended. What should occur next?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C - Collect a new sample no sooner than 24 hours after disinfection was completed
Question 9
A chemical-feed connection presents a high health hazard, and downstream pressure can exceed the potable-water supply pressure. Which backflow-prevention assembly is appropriate for both the hazard and the hydraulic condition?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C - Reduced-pressure principle assembly
Question 10
A reduced-pressure principle assembly passed its installation test. Nine months later, a leaking shutoff valve on the assembly is replaced. Before the protected line returns to normal operation, the plumber must:
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B - Have the assembly performance-tested immediately after the repair
