A sanitary gravity line is required by the approved design to have uniform grade. Before slab placement, inspection confirms a sag caused by deficient bedding. What should happen?

Correct Answer

C) Correct bedding and grade before cover

Correct the deficient support and grade, then verify the installed line before covering it. A flush cannot change a sagging pipe profile; placing the slab first makes access harder. Resolve the actual support defect rather than assuming every belly has the same cause.

Answer Options
A
Accept it solely because some water passes
B
Leave the sag and plan a flush after occupancy
C
Correct bedding and grade before cover
D
Pour the slab before resolving the sag

Why This Is the Correct Answer

Correct the deficient support and grade, then verify the installed line before covering it. A flush cannot change a sagging pipe profile; placing the slab first makes access harder. Resolve the actual support defect rather than assuming every belly has the same cause.
