A 4 in horizontal drain is sized to carry a load of drainage fixture units. Which pipe run carries the greatest DFU load for a given diameter?

a.A building drain sloped at 1/4 in per ft compared with the same drain at 1/8 in per ft
b.A horizontal fixture branch compared with a building drain of the same size
c.A vent stack compared with a drainage stack of the same size
d.A trap arm compared with a fixture branch of the same size

For a horizontal drain of a given diameter, increasing the slope increases the carrying capacity, so a 4 in building drain at 1/4 in per ft is rated for more DFU than the same drain at 1/8 in per ft. A horizontal fixture branch is rated for fewer DFU than a building drain of equal size, a vent stack carries air rather than a DFU load, and a trap arm serves a single fixture.
