Interesting reading on the subject. (I'm not a plumber and I didn't stay at Holiday Inn Express last night....) South Carolina appears to be IPC and doesn't mention dead legs. (That I could find.) The dead leg code language is to prevent Legionella from growing. Engineering and...

Washer standpipe and everything downstream needs to be 2". The 1 1/2" is overwhelmed by the flow rate of the washer.

Does the crack go all the way around the pipe, or is it just on the top? Any images from the interior inspection?
