I'm trying to figure out what this is saying.
It seems like you can test the building in sections, which is an obvious requirement for multi-story buildings.
Then it says every joint or pipe except the uppermost 10 feet must be subjected to 10 feet of head.
What the heck is the "next preceding section"?
Could you have physical breaks between floors to cap for testing, or would you need something like a cleanout in the stack where you could insert a balloon?
I mean, the joints between the "sections" also have to be tested, right?
Thanks,
Tim
