    Waste pipe size query

    Hi, I have a basin trap that has a 35mm chrome waste pipe supplied. I was wondering if this can converted to standard 32mm pipe as the chrome isn't long enough. I seems odd that the Chrome pipe isn't a standard size? Thanks

    Calculating shower waste pipe fall

    Simple questions, I hope: When planning the run of the waste pipe from a new shower, do I calculate the fall from the shower tray surface or from the shower trap outlet? I'm working on a required fall with 40mm pipe of 18mm per 1m and I have a 2m straight span to cross. Is this correct?
