Sanitary sewer

Sanitary sewer and force main design

Gravity sewers, laterals, manholes and force mains for single sites, subdivisions and large land developments, connected to the local utility.

For new service, redevelopment and replacement of aging pipes.

Sanitary sewer and force main design

We design gravity sewers, manholes, laterals and force mains for single sites, redevelopment projects, subdivisions and large land developments, and connect them to county and city utility systems.

Our plans are drawn in plan and profile with the details the utility expects. We check the capacity of the receiving system, the pressure at the point of connection for force mains, and the conflicts with existing utilities, so the design moves through review with fewer comments.

What we do

  • Gravity collection systems for subdivisions and developments
  • Force main design and pressure analysis at the point of connection
  • Manholes, laterals, cleanouts and building sewer connections
  • Septic-to-sewer conversions
  • Capacity analysis of existing sewers
  • Sewer extension permits and certification

Who this is for

Questions we hear

Can you design a force main that ties into an existing pressurized system?

Yes. We analyze the pressure at the point of connection and the operating points of the pumps so the new force main works with the existing network.

Do you handle septic-to-sewer conversions?

Yes. We design the connection, coordinate with the utility and the health department, and prepare the permits to abandon the septic system.

Do you design sewer systems for new subdivisions?

Yes. We lay out the full collection system, including pump stations when gravity service is not possible.
