Fixture unit per fixture equals 1.5 what does this mean?

A "fixture unit" is used to design the pipe sizes in a plumbing system. It does not equate directly to gallons because not all of the fixtures (aka sinks, toilets, tubs etc etc) will be "running" at the same time. Each fixture is assigned a "fixture unit" load by the local authority having jurisdiction (aka the local plumbing code). These are added to together and tables are used to determine the pipe size. EG, a typical bathroom sink is assigned 1.5SWFU (supply water Fixture units) and 1.5DFU (drainage fixture units) BUT a toilet might be 2.2SWFU and 4DFU.
