I'm getting ready to run the vent/drain in our renovations. I'm wondering if anybody sees any big issues with my plan. I read through the canadian plumbing code a few times to back up decisions i've made and would be interested to see what others have to think.

Notes about the diagram:
they don't have all the fittings in the software. the horizontal 2in branch should be a wye + 45
the vertical 3in goes through the roof
the long trap arm is just under 7 foot
the deviation between the 3in pipe after the sink isn't a software mistake, it's a floor joist

Not sure if a link to the 3d will work but if anything the site is worth checking out. Free and pretty easy to use for drafting up stuff like this.

Use only wyes, 45s, long sweeps, combos in the horizontal. You appear to be joining the shower to the lavatory+vent with a santee. Use a combo or a wye and a 45.

You must keep the shower path short enough. I don't know what your limit is. How long is the path out of the shower trap to join the wet vent?

The shower to main is 5'8" in a straight line. Ideally I'd run it straight but it would intersect my WC drain.
If it ends up going over 8 feet I'll just abandon the project and go live underground.

For the fittings I had the wye+1/8 in mind, just had a hard time with the software.

Looks fine to me as long as nothing drains from above or into the pictured piping from the toilet intersection up, and your trap arm's are within the prescribed distance.

Hey, wait a minute.

This is awkward, but...
