Dry systems aren't used that much for temperature controlled buildings are they? I thought they were mostly used for when the temperature can drop below freezing....
Actually we have quite a bit of plumbing under slab. Our main drainage system all runs to our lower bay where the oil/water separator is located. We have centrally located restrooms plus sinks in the photo lab, maintenance and claims areas. My store is just over 209k square foot and would hate to see what it would look like if they had to start tracking down plumbing issues. Whether it is true or not, don't really know but it is completely plausible.
Hey....
....that might alleviate the problems caused by Lurker66.
Years ago, National Geographic ran a story in their magazine about water on a world-wide basis. Throughout the story, there were little blurbs of facts of water. The one I remember the most is that water is a universal solvent that will eventually "eat away" anything. In their article, they said that explained why old drinking glasses would break with just a light tap.
So, all the time that water is pressurized in those pipes, it's working on the metal.
I used that little factoid for years to avoid drinking water, but later on, my doctor didn't buy that as an excuse. Darn...had to cut back on sodas and iced tea.
Really pretty simple. When I had a drain pipe collapse in my rental, I used a drain camera and pinpointed the collapsed line within a few inches from where we started hammering the concrete. I think they can build a new store from the ground up in 6 months with no unexpected delays.
Yes. #544 in Del City.
Thank you.
Seriously, it has centrally located restrooms? I've never seen that in any of the Walmarts I frequent. It would be convenient for us old guys.

Google around a bit... For one SC they were going to begin grading the empty lot in August 2014 and hoped to open in 2016.
