FOREWORD This Indian Standard ( Fourth Revision ) was adopted by the Bureau of Indian Standards, after the draft finalized by the Water Supply and Sanitation in Building Sectional Committee had been approved by the Civil Engineering Division Council. This Indian Standard was first published in 1957 and subsequently revised in 1963, 1971 and 1983. In this revision, requirements of water supply for residences has been listed based on population of the community. However, for Lower Income Group ( LIG ) and Economical Weaker Section of Society ( EWS ), the value of minimum requirement of water supply has been retained as 135 litres per head per day. Fire demand in buildings has been catered to, by giving reference to a suita-ble standard. This code represents a standard of good practice and, therefore, takes the form of recommendations.
