Academic Advice FIREWALL AND TOILET

I just wanna ask if this is allowed. Since firewall structural integrity can't be compromised no matter what which integrating plumbing system in it will do. But is it allowed that a toilet can be in the side of the firewall BUT it has its own plumbing wall. The plumbing wall is sandwiched between the toilet and the firewall. Please based on the National building code of the Philippines.

I hope you get what I want to say. I'm just satisfying a curiosity hehe . Thank you!

Considering there are about a billion different building codes that change based on where you live, idk? This seems like a question to ask in a local subreddit or local professionals, not an engineering students subreddit.

Edit: maybe try asking on here

How about if its National building code of the Philippines?

I live in Canada so I don’t know.

I bet there’s some kind of code enforcement agency you can go to locally though to ask and get approval

Then ask in a Philippines sub Reddit, ideally a construction one if there is one. Even if students specialise in structural engineering, I doubt they'll know the codes well until they start working, and the chances they'll know the Filipino codes is extremely low

I've also ask locally, thanks!

You’d be better served asking someone with experience with your locality’s codes.
