The requirement referenced in note 16 on sheet fp.001 is intended for the fire protection contractor's delegated design of the fire sprinkler system. The note is provided to address conditions where a fire protection seismic expansion joint may be required due to the final routing of sprinkler piping and the location of building expansion or seismic joints. The fire protection contractor shall evaluate the final system layout and provide seismic expansion joints where required by applicable codes, standards, and the approved sprinkler system design. No specific quantity or location is identified in the contract documents. The requirement applies only if such conditions are encountered as part of the fire protection contractor's final design.

Question #68:

The documents indicate "Provide complete shop drawings, with hydraulic calcs, with new flow info and specs brochure".

Answer #69:

CMR is to manage subcontractor scope. As a general note yes, all unsealed penetrations found in existing rated partitions should be sealed. It should be noted that most of the classroom corridors are rated smoke partitions. Per section 211000 - water-based fire-suppression systems, firestopping is required for penetrations associated with the fire protection work and in accordance with the applicable firestopping requirements. the contract documents do not require the fire protection contractor to recaulk or firestop all existing sprinkler penetrations throughout the building. firestopping shall be provided for new penetrations and existing penetrations disturbed by the work.
