Di Atas Lot 76103, Jalan Bazar U8/101, Seksyen U8, Bukit Jelutong, Shah Alam, Selangor Darul Ehsan,
Untuk Tetuan Sime Darby Property Berhad.

The Project is to be developed by Sime Darby Property Berhad Sime Darby as the Developer. Jurutera
Budiman Sdn.Bhd. (JBSB) has been appointed by Sime Darby as the Civil Consultant to carry out
structural and infrastructural design for the Project. This report is intended to present the design of
the water reticulation system for the development.

The size of the Project is 1.09 hectare which consists of 2 blocks apartment with 162 units and a
guard house.

2.0 Purpose of Report

The purpose of this report is to present the detailed design concept, detailed calculation and network
analysis of water supply system for the development.

WATER RETICULATION REPORT

This report is to describe and detail to Syabas, the consultant’s design concepts for the water supply
system and to seek the Authority’s approval.

The Site Existing Condition

The project area is located on flat land and the existing ground levels at approximately ranges
between 15.50m to 17.80m. The difference level between the proposed platform and the existing
terrain is averaged at 0.5m. The layout plan of the proposed development within the existing
development area can be referred in the Appendix A.

Design Concept

Reference

The water reticulation system shall be designed in accordance with the following guidelines:

Uniform technical guideline Water Reticulation & Plumbing published by SPAN

Source of Water Supply

Based on the report on the ‘Detail Design of Main Reticulation’ by KTA Tenaga Sdn Bhd, the main
source supply for Block D is mainly form the Low Level Reservoir (TWL = 68.50 m ODL and BWL =
62.50 m ODL), and the tapping point for this project is at the existing main pipeline nearby Node 35
with peak flow pressure head of 30.523m.

For domestic usage, water will be supply from the incoming main pipe to the internal suction
tank provided; pump to the roof tank and distribute to each unit by gravity.

Water Demand

The total water demand for the proposed development, is estimated in accordance to the type of
development, the number of units and built up of area allocated as presented in Table 1.

Table 1: Water Demand

Avg Daily Water Total Water

Type of Building Quantity
Demand (gpd) Demand (gpd)

Apartment 162 440 71280.00

Club House 449 2.2 987.80

Management 560 2.2 1232.20

Guard House 1 330 330.00

Swimming Pool

(515 m3 / 7days x 2times refill per 1 670 670.00

week)

Total 74499.80

Allow for 5% 78300.00

Storage Provision

Minimum storage capacity provided shall be equivalent to:

One (1) day domestic demand

Two hour storage reserve, whichever is greater

Pipe Lines & Fittings

All pipe materials is using 150mm Ductile Iron (D.I) pipe and shall comply with the current Malaysian
Standard or Local Authority.

WATER RETICULATION REPORT
Air valve shall be provided at peak/low points or drain/culvert crossing.

Adequate in line valves shall be provided to isolate sections of main to facilitate maintenance.

Approved type of precast valve chambers shall be used

Pipe Cover

Minimum cover shall be 900mm

Minimum cover to pipe laid under paved area shall be 1200mm

Anchor/Thrust Block

Shall be provided at all bends, tees and stop‐ends and designed to withstand full pressure test.

Analysis of Water Reticulation Network

Analysis of water reticulation network is carried out using MES programme, based on Hazen‐Williams
formula. Hazen–Williams Coefficient (HWC) is taken as C=100, Peak Factor for peak flow analysis is
2.5, and 1 for fire flow analysis. Head losses in pipeline is limited to 2m/km for peak flow analysis and
the residual head at all nodes are in excess of 7.5m, while fire flow parameters is taken as 1370 l/min
(22.833 l/s).

Estimated Suction Tank Size

Suction Tank

Total average daily demand approx. = 78,300 gallon/day

As per requirement, the storage capacity

for suction tank shall be 33% of the

total average daily demand = 25,840 gallon/day

Suction Tank provided = 12.4m x 7.65 x 2.8m high (R.C)

Capacity = 58,430 gall > 25,840 gall – ok!
