Discover the intricacies of architectural drawing as you explore riser diagrams for sections F and F1, focusing on the layout of the grease waste system, public restrooms, and sanitary risers. Gain an understanding of how the system is interconnected, from underground piping to roof ventilation.
Key Insights
- The architectural drawing provides a detailed overview of the riser diagrams for sections F and F1, outlining the layout of the 3D grease waste system, public restrooms, and sanitary risers.
- The annotations and symbols in the drawing are vital in understanding the system's structure; solid lines represent below-ground features, while dashed lines indicate components above the ground, such as vents.
- The drawing also illustrates how the different components of the system, including the floor sinks, water closets, showers and urinals, are interconnected and eventually link to the main system, providing a comprehensive view of the building's sanitary and waste networks.

This drawing shows the risers for area B, sections F and F1. This is for 3D grease waste, the public restrooms, sanitary risers for area F, and sanitary risers for F1. So let's go up here first.
We have a floor sink, two more floor sinks, a floor drain, a floor drain, and another floor sink. When the lines are solid, they're below ground. When they're dashed, they're above.
So you can see that we have a GW for grease waste. You can see the sizes of the piping, and the piping then goes into the grease traps. Here in the public restroom, we have the lavatories, the water closets, and the urinals.
You can see that we have a floor drain. It goes down. There are traps under the sink, which go down, and then these dashed lines represent vents.
So there will be ventilation that will continue up the building and eventually vent to roof. We have the same thing happening over here with the water fountain, the urinals, and the water closets, where they go down into the system, and the same thing happening back over here. So again, the sink, the trap under it, which then goes down.
Everybody collects together and goes into the system back down here, and there is a clean out down here at the end. In this riser drawing, we're showing the sanitary risers for water closets, showers, and sinks. You can see that everything is appropriately labeled per the general notes.
You can see the traps. You can see the ventilation that eventually vents to roof. You can see the sizes of the piping.
If you follow down through here, there's probably a clean out trap right there. It's showing right down here that this system continues, but you go on page P103B to see the continuation. The same continuation here, and here, and here.
If I pan up to here, similar kind of information, we see the labeling for the sinks, the showers, and the water closets, the solid lines that are going down with the traps. It's a clean out right over here. Vent to roof.
You can see the VTR is right here. It shows the continuations for the system. It's a nice presentation when you're looking at the floor plans and these riser drawings together.
You start to see how all of the different components come together. Let's go on to our next drawing.
