We have a 2 story building in reconstruction (due to fire) with the slab and underground utilities as the starting scenario.  We need to pass city code pressure test of waste system before framing. We are struggling resolving leaks in the 6 inch waste line system under the slab.  The ABS piping system includes Ys, 90s, couplers, and straight pipe sections.  What do you see as options for inner wall repairs at all the sections?  Is there a lining process recommended here?  Other method or process to consider?  Is there a compound or solution we can add with or without water to seal and flush through the system without upsetting authorities or agencies here in CA?

Tom, I would recommend sock lining: a felt sock pulled through an existing pipe and then inflated/expanded to fill the width of the old pipe. The sock cures in place and you have a new pipe inside of your old one. I would recommend contacting a reputable trenchless technologies company that offers sock lining services.
