Main Ideas, Concepts, and Lessons

  • Scope of the topic (clean water system in high-rise buildings)

    • The video introduces “clean water” as part of a building’s overall water system, contrasting:
      • Clean water vs. dirty/used water
      • Rainwater vs. clean water supply
      • Hot water as a separate subsystem for certain building functions
  • Why architects need this knowledge

    • The discussion is framed from an architectural perspective, aiming to help architects:
      • plan spaces for plumbing components (e.g., MFP/plumbing-related rooms and shafts)
      • ensure architectural drawings can align with MEP / MEP consulting outputs
    • The presenter notes the level of detail is not as deep as what a dedicated MEP (Mechanical/Electrical/Plumbing) consultant would produce.
  • Key references/standards mentioned

    • SNI (Indonesia National Standard): SNI 03-7013-2005
      • referenced as a basis for procedures to plan plumbing systems
    • DKI Jakarta Provincial Regulation: Perda DKI Jakarta No. 122/2005
      • about water management for domestic waste
      • used here as supporting basis for clean water planning assumptions/tables
  • Principle of sizing clean water demand

    • Clean water demand depends on:
      • building function (office, residential, apartment, hospital, school, hotel, etc.)
      • number of occupants
    • Standards provide different liters per person per day by building function.
  • Core calculation method demonstrated (step-by-step)

    1. Determine the building function
    2. Determine the number of occupants
      • an example is shown using office area and an occupancy density assumption
    3. Determine daily clean water demand
      • occupants × standard liters/person/day
      • example for offices: 50 L/person/day
    4. Convert volume units
      • liters/day → cubic meters/day
      • example: 100,000 L/day = 100 m³/day
  • Sizing water storage tanks (roof tank and ground tank)

    • Roof tank volume
      • assumed to be 15–20% of daily clean water demand
      • example: office daily need 100 m³/day
        • roof tank at ~20% → 20 m³
    • Ground water tank (GWT) / clean water tank
      • includes daily clean water storage plus a fire-fighting reserve
    • Fire-fighting reserve assumption
      • taken as 1 to 1.5× the clean water volume
      • presenter uses 1.5× in the office example
      • example:
        • clean water needs: 100 m³
        • fire reserve: 150 m³
        • total capacity: 250 m³
    • Additional note: RWT / temporary storage (if water isn’t immediately usable)
      • an “RWT” (router/temporary storage tank, as described) may be needed
      • assumed to be ~30% of total clean water tank volume
      • example:
        • if total is 250 m³, then RWT ≈ 30% = 75 m³
    • When RWT/GWT is used
      • if source water (e.g., PAM/tap supply or deep well) is not suitable for immediate consumption:
        • route to temporary storage → filtration → then into GWT
  • Hot water

    • Hot water is acknowledged as needed for certain functions (e.g., hotels / higher sanitary demand), but detailed hot-water design is deferred to a separate discussion.
  • Comparison between office vs. apartment demand

    • Offices
      • example: office with 2000 people
      • factor used: 50 L/person/day
      • clean water: 100 m³/day
      • roof tank ~20% → 20 m³
      • ground tank includes fire:
        • clean + 1.5×fire → 250 m³
    • Apartments
      • emphasized higher demand due to bathing, cooking, laundry, etc.
      • example assumption: 250 L/person/day
      • for 2000 people:
        • 500,000 L/day = 500 m³/day
      • roof tank ~20% → 100 m³
      • ground tank:
        • clean + fire reserve (assumed 500 m³) → 1000 m³ total
    • Lesson
      • building function strongly drives tank size
      • apartments can require multiples of office capacity
  • Plumbing system flow / diagram logic (as described)

    • Source water enters via PAM (public supply) through a water meter
    • If water is suitable:
      • PAM → clean water tank (GWT) → pump up to roof tank
    • If water is not suitable (e.g., deep well):
      • deep well → meter → water tanks → filtration → then to GWT/RWT stages
    • Distribution to floors
      • roof tank → riser pipe → top-floor/roof distribution
      • booster pumps for top ~3–5 floors to ensure pressure
      • lower floors often rely on gravity (pressure may become excessive in some cases)
    • Unit-level distribution
      • apartments:
        • centralized in a vertical shaft, then to each unit (shower, closet, sink/pantry, kitchen sink, washing machine)
      • hotels:
        • described as more centralized (units may not have individual meters)
    • Public/shared functions
      • pools, gardens, flushing, etc. affect reserve calculations
      • mentions reserving about 10% excess for contingencies (e.g., flushing/leak allowance)
  • Vertical shafts (planning guidance)

    • A shaft is described as a continuous vertical space filled with pipes.
    • It typically contains:
      • clean water pipes
      • used/dirty water pipes
      • ventilation pipes for toilet/sanitary air
      • possibly hot water pipes (as described for apartments/hotels)
      • AC drain pipes (for office solutions per subtitle notes)
      • rainwater pipes from the roof
    • Two main shaft arrangement types
      • Single (one end unit / single system)
        • reference size: ~75 cm deep × 40 cm wide
      • Twin/tandem (pipes shared across two units)
        • reference size: ~50 cm deep × 40 cm wide
    • Horizontal shaft notes
      • subtitle reference: about 1 meter length × 30 cm width (as a sizing reference)
  • Architect’s conclusion / checklist (most important “what to prepare”)

    • Architects should avoid over-engineering pipe details, but must ensure correct space allocation and compatibility with MEP consultants:
      • provide space for:
        • RWT/ground tanks and pump room (basement/ground floor)
        • roof tank (roof area)
        • shaft locations and pathways for:
          • riser pipes
          • distribution pipes on typical floors
        • logical sanitary ware placement in all wet areas
          • to reduce mismatch where MEP routing cannot align with architectural layouts
    • Final lesson
      • misalignment between architectural and MEP/plumbing drawings is difficult to fully prevent; when inconsistencies occur, architectural plans often get revised, because construction usually follows detailed MEP coordination.

Methodology / Step-by-Step Instructions Extracted

A. Determine clean water demand

  • Identify the building function (office, apartment, hotel, etc.).
  • Determine the number of occupants
    • use building area + occupancy density assumption (example shown for offices).
  • Select the standard clean water liters per person per day
    • from SNI and/or more detailed DKI Jakarta regulation tables (as described).
  • Compute:
    • Clean water per day (L/day) = occupants × L/person/day
    • Convert to m³/day (1000 L = 1 m³)

B. Size roof tank

  • Assume roof tank volume is 15–20% of daily clean water needs.
  • Compute:
    • Roof tank ≈ 0.15–0.20 × clean water demand (m³/day)
  • Example:
    • 100 m³/day → 20% → 20 m³ roof tank

C. Size ground/clean water tank including fire reserve

  • Compute fire reserve:
    • Fire fighting water = (1 to 1.5) × clean water volume
  • Compute total tank capacity:
    • GWT total ≈ clean water (m³/day) + fire reserve (m³)
  • Example:
    • clean 100 m³ + fire 150 m³ → 250 m³ total

D. Consider RWT (temporary storage) if needed

  • If water is not ready for direct consumption:
    • allocate a temporary tank:
    • RWT ≈ 30% × total clean water tank volume
  • Route flow:
    • RWT → filtration (sand/carbon filters mentioned) → then to GWT

E. Plan distribution and pumps

  • Flow logic:
    • PAM supply → water meter → tanks → pumps → roof tank
  • Provide:
    • booster pumps for top floors (top 3–5 floors per subtitles)
    • gravity distribution for lower floors when adequate pressure exists
  • Distribute to:
    • each sanitary fixture group (lavatory, shower, closet, kitchen sink, washing machine, etc.)
    • public amenities (pool/flushing/garden) as required

F. Plan shafts

  • Allocate continuous vertical shaft space for:
    • clean water, dirty water, vents
    • possibly hot water, AC drains, and rainwater (depending on building/service type)
  • Reference sizing guidance:
    • Single shaft: ~75 cm (depth) × 40 cm (width)
    • Twin/tandem shaft: ~50 cm (depth) × 40 cm (width)

G. Architectural coordination rule

  • Place sanitary ware logically in floor plans so MEP routing can match.
  • Avoid haphazard fixture placement that causes plumbing layout conflicts.
