Drain and sewer systems outside buildings - Design - Part 1: Layout principles
This document specifies requirements for the design of drain and sewer systems outside buildings.
It is applicable to drain and sewer systems, which operate essentially under gravity, from the point where the wastewater leaves a building, roof drainage system, or paved area, to a point where it is discharged into a wastewater treatment plant or receiving water body.
This part specifies requirements for the layout of drain and sewer systems.

Introduction
Drain and sewer systems are part of the overall wastewater system that provides a service to the
community. This can be briefly described as:— removal of wastewater from premises for public health and hygienic reasons;
— prevention of flooding in urbanised areas;
— protection of the environment.
The overall wastewater system has four successive functions: collection, transport, treatment,
discharge.Drain and sewer systems provide for the collection and transport of wastewater.
EN 752:2017 provides a framework for the design, construction, rehabilitation, maintenance and
operation of drain and sewer systems outside buildings. This is illustrated in the upper part of the
diagram in Figure 1. EN 752:2017 is supported by more detailed standards for the investigation, design,
construction, management and control of drain and sewer systems.Investigation and assessment standards include:
— EN 13508 (all parts), Investigation and assessment of drain and sewer systems outside buildings.
Design and construction standards include:— EN 16932 (all parts), Drain and sewer systems outside buildings — Pumping systems,
— EN 16933, Drain, sewer systems outside buildings — Design— EN 1295, Structural design of buried pipelines under various conditions of loading,
— EN 1610, Construction and testing of drains and sewers,— EN 12889, Trenchless construction and testing of drains and sewers,

sewers.Management and control standards include:

4.1 Introduction
This document covers the design of the layout of new drain and sewer systems that are to be
constructed to implement a sewer system management plan in accordance with EN 752:2017, 6.4.4.
Implementation of these plans shall be in accordance with EN 752:2017, 6.5, and EN 14654.
EN 752:2017 specifies objectives, functional requirements and the principles for design of drain and
sewer systems outside buildings.The design of the layout is affected by the functional requirements, in particular the following:
— Maintainability (see EN 752:2017, 5.1.3);— Protection of groundwater (see EN 752:2017, 5.1.5);
— Prevention of odours and toxic, explosive and corrosive gases (see EN 752:2017, 5.1.6);
---------------------- Page: 9 ----------------------oSIST prEN 16933-1:2020
prEN 16933-1:2020 (E)
— Prevention of noise and vibration (see EN 752:2015, 5.1.7);
— Structural integrity and design working life (see EN 752:2017, 5.1.8);
— Maintaining the flow (see EN 752:2017, 5.1.12);
— Not endangering adjacent structures and utility services (see EN 752:2017, 5.1.13).
Except where they are specified by national or local regulations or the relevant authority, design
criteria shall be determined in accordance with EN 752:2017, 5.3.4.2 The design process
The design of the layout shall be carried out in accordance with the design principles in EN 752:2017,
8.3.It is essential because it allows the designer to collect and evaluate all the data needed to make the best
technical choices in terms of design, construction, rehabilitation, maintenance and operation.
The dimensions and gradients of the pipes are determined by the hydraulic design (see
EN 16933-2:2017) or operational requirements and topographical constraints.Establishing the layout is the first stage of the design of new drain and sewer systems. The process is
summarized in Figure 2. In large projects this can be carried out in a number of stages with an outline of
the layout first produced for the whole catchment. This can form part of the sewer system management
plan (see EN 752:2017, Clause 6). This can then be followed by the more detailed layout of the main
sewers in each of a number of sub-catchments. Finally, the layout of the smaller drains and sewers
around the buildings can be established.---------------------- Page: 10 ----------------------

5 Preliminary investigations
5.1 General
Preliminary investigations should be undertaken to enable the evaluation of the layout, and
construction options. These investigations should be from records or surveys and should include:
a) topographical investigations;b) geotechnical investigations;
c) groundwater investigations;
d) investigations of existing drainage services;
e) investigations of other utility services;
f) investigations of the nature and quality of inputs.
As the project develops further, more detailed investigations should be carried out where necessary.
5.2 TopographySurface reconnaissance and examination of contour maps and aerial photographs will enable
preliminary lines for drains, sewers and rising mains to be established so that the general feasibility of
the proposals ca...
