i'm in the process of building an extension and my footings fall right on my drains (salt-glaze). I'm just wondering the best way to turn corners - can it be done with long-radius bends ort isd it better to put an IC in at every turn. I'm planning on starting the new pipework with a MH so i can feed the current soil stack and new WC waste in, but i'm a bit stuck from there on.

Any help would be appreciated
Thanks

Stu

You should always use a MH or IC at any sharp charnge of direction. I can't quite tell from your drawing where exactly the IC would go, but I'm guessing you mean the top RH corner of the sketch.
