Water Supply & Distribution第 39 / 120 题
A 24 ft horizontal run of 1/2 in CPVC water distribution pipe is supported at the maximum spacing of 3 ft. What is the minimum number of supports required?
a.6 supports
b.8 supports
c.9 supports
d.12 supports
解析
24 ft divided by 3 ft equals 8 supports at the maximum allowed spacing. The 6 support answer uses the 4 ft spacing allowed for larger plastic pipe, and 12 supports assumes 2 ft spacing, which is more than the code requires. The 9 answer adds an extra support that the calculation does not produce.
