Leader diameter = 11.4, say 12 in.
Stack area
= 0.7 X 90 = 63 sq. in. = say 5 X 12 in.
Register area
= 90 sq. in. net area. Gross area = 1.6 X net area = 12 X 12 or 12 X 14 in.
In like manner the leaders, stacks and registers are calculated for each room in the house.

Assuming all air recirculated, the minimum furnace for the plant will be:
Grate Area = 0.0034 X 132,370 s= 450 sq. in. = 24 in. diam. at 175 deg. register temperature. (7)
Grate Area = 0.0040 X 132,370 = 530 sq. in. = 26 in. diam. at 160 deg. register temperature. (8)
(10)
If provision shall be made for certain outside air circulation, then increase the building heat loss by, say 25 per cent and obtain by equation (7) a 27-in. grate and by equations .(8) and (10) a 29-in. grate.

Chapter 5--Heating with Warm Air Furnaces by Gravity
STANDARD CODE REGULATING THE INSTALLATION OF GRAVITY WARM AIR FURNACES IN RESIDENCES3
SIXTH EDITION
March 1, 1929
ARTICLE No. 1.--Meaning of the Term "Gravity Warm Air Furnace Heating System"
Gravity Warm Air Heating Systems, to which this code refers, shall consist of one or more warm-air furnaces, enclosed within casings, together with necessary appur tenances thereto, consisting of warm-air pipes and fittings; cold air or recirculating pipes; ducts, boxes and fittings; smoke-pipes and fittings; registers, borders, faces and grilles; the same being intended for heating buildings in which they may be installed.
ARTICLE No. 2.--Certified Measurements
Certified measurements on warm-air furnaces together with the name and number of that furnace, will be issued by authority of the National Warm Air Heating A ssociation, when, if and as, the grate areas and heating surfaces have been accurately measured and approved by the Research Advisory Committee.
ARTICLE No. 3.--Method for Determining Size of Warm Air Pipes, Wall Stacks and Furnaces for Use in Residences
Method for Determining Sizes of Basement Warm Air Pipes
Section 1. Each First-Floor Room:
Divide square feet of glass by 12
Divide square feet of net outside wall by factor in Table A Divide cubic contents by 800 Add together the above and multiply by 9
The result is the area of the basement pipe in sq. in.
Stated as an equation, this is:
/The sum of:
) Glass (sq. ft.) (Note 1) -s- 12
| X.9 = area of basement,pipe
) Net Wall (sq. ft.) (Note 2) -f* factor in Table A
(Cubic Contents -f- 800
Section 2. Each SecondvFJoor Room:
Divide square feet of glass by 12 Divide square feet of net outside wall by factor in Table A
Divide cubic contents by 800 Add together the above and multiply by 6 The result is the area of the basement pipe in sq. in.
(See Section 9. c)
Stated as an equation, this is:
The sum of:
Glass (sq. ft.) (Note 7) + 12
| X 6 = area of basement duct
Net Wall (sq. ft.) (Note 2) ~ factor in Table A
Cubic Contents -r- 800
Section 3. Each Third-Floor Room:
Divide square feet of glass by 12
Divide square feet of net outside wall by factor in Table A
Divide cubic contents by 800 Add together the above and multiply by 5
The result is the area of the basement pipe in sq. in.
Stated as an equation, this is:
The sum of:
Glass (sq. ft.) (Note 1) + 12
| X 5 = area of basement duct
Net Wall (sq. ft.) (Note 2) -s- factor in Table A
Cubic Contents -4- 800
