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.

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.
- Clean water demand depends on:
-
Core calculation method demonstrated (step-by-step)
- Determine the building function
- Determine the number of occupants
- an example is shown using office area and an occupancy density assumption
- Determine daily clean water demand
- occupants × standard liters/person/day
- example for offices: 50 L/person/day
- 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
- if source water (e.g., PAM/tap supply or deep well) is not suitable for immediate consumption:
- Roof tank volume
-
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
- Offices
-
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)
- apartments:
- 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
- Single (one end unit / single system)
- 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
- provide space for:
- 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.
- Architects should avoid over-engineering pipe details, but must ensure correct space allocation and compatibility with MEP consultants:
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.
