Discharging into full inspection chamber / manhole.
Discharging into full inspection chamber / manhole.
(OP)
Hi,
Has anyone come across what effect discharging a full bore pipe into an already full (of rainwater) inspection chamber has on the discharge rate.
Im assuming it depends on the size of the inspection chamber, how deep the pipe is submerged and what the head of water is driving the pipe.
Any help appreciated.
Kind Regards
Lee

Is there a way to measure how soon the water will start to back up to roof level, therefore risking water ingress to the building?
Would that happen or would the pressure of the water force the underground drains to run at a higher velocity?
Thanks
