    tips

    Relax and show your stuff! You'll do fine. If in doubt, oversize the drain or vent one pipe diameter. Add as many code numbers as possible & if there's a place where the waste arm is borderline before needing re-venting, state the length on the drawing and reference the code number that deals with max lengths.

    Don't forget to put DFU's on each fixture.

    So what's the trick question to be? Garage drains? Perhaps an acid neutralizing station(G).

    G'luck!

    Don't forget

    about pipe sizing and 2.5" pipe. It will get you every time, even if nobody uses it. GOOD LUCK!

    Best of luck Chris

    Your post reminded me of my exam in the early 70's. You'll be reminiscing about yours one day also. Just relax, read the questions through, answer those your sure of first and then go back. One last thing, when in doubt go with your first instinct.
