Soil or Waste Stacks. A soil or waste stack (normally just called a stack) is a drainage pipe that passes through at least one story(floor to ceiling) as a drain pipe, this also includes any horizontal offsets. Every soil or waste stack will terminate in a stack vent that leads to outside air or a vent header.
A waste stack carries waste disposal from all other fixtures. A vent stack provides air circulation throughout the waste system and allows for the release of sewer gases. Placement of the stack. The stack runs in the building wall, up through each floor, and out through the roof. Start at the building sewer pipeline and work towards the place where stack will be installed. 2  Set the pipe to a grade slope of inch per foot with a carpenters level. 3  The slope will rise from the building sewer line to the stack. 4  Support the pipe at each connection to maintain the grade slope.
