Diagonal runs have both vertical and horizontal vent as- pects when calculating the effects. Use the rise for the vertical aspect and the run for the horizontal aspect (see Figure 7.1).

D. Measuring Standards

Vertical and horizontal measurements listed in the vent diagrams were made using the following standards.

Pipe measurements are shown using the effective length of pipe (see Figure 7.2).
