About this file

This is a Contractor's Material and Test Certificate form (Form AS-5) for aboveground fire sprinkler piping systems, designed to document inspection, testing, and acceptance procedures upon project completion. The form serves as the official record that contractors and Contracting Officers must jointly complete and sign before the contractor's personnel leave the job site, with copies distributed to the authority having jurisdiction, park unit, and contractors.

The form requires comprehensive documentation across multiple categories: verification that installation conforms to accepted plans and approved equipment is used; confirmation that fire equipment personnel have been instructed on control valve locations and maintenance; specification of sprinkler system details including riser location, FMSS asset ID, sprinkler make/model, and orifice size; testing results for alarm valves, dry pipe systems, backflow prevention devices, and deluge/pre-action valves; and detailed hydraulic testing data. Testing requirements include hydrostatic pressure tests at minimum 200 psi for two hours and pneumatic tests with allowable air pressure drops not exceeding 1.5 psi in 24 hours. The form additionally addresses welding compliance with AWS D10.9 standards, retrieval of cutouts and testing gaskets, underground main flushing verification, and nameplate documentation. All sections require certification signatures from both the sprinkler contractor and the Contracting Officer or designee, with explicit notation that such signatures do not prejudice claims against the contractor for defective materials, poor workmanship, or non-compliance with applicable regulations or local ordinances.

Contractor’s Material and Test Certificate for Aboveground Piping (Form AS-5)

PROCEDURE

Upon completion of work, inspection and tests shall be made by the contractor’s representative and witnessed by the Contracting Officer or his/her designee. All defects shall be corrected and the system left in service before contractor’s personnel finally leave the job.

A certificate shall be filled out and signed by both a contactor’s representative and the Contracting Officer or his/her designee. Copies shall be prepared for the authority having jurisdiction, the park unit, and contractors. It is understood that the signature of the Contracting Officer or his/her designee in no way prejudices any claim against the contractor for faulty material, poor workmanship, or failure to comply with the requirements of the authority having jurisdiction or local ordinances.

TEST (description) HYDROSTATIC: Hydrostatic tests shall be made at not less than 200 psi (13.6 bar) for two hours or 50 psi (3.4 bar) above static pressure in excess of 150 psi (10.2 bar) for two hours. Differential dry pipe valve clappers shall be left open during test to prevent damage. All aboveground piping leakage shall be stopped.

PNEUMATIC: Establish 40 psi (2.7 bar) air pressure and measure drop, which shall not exceed 11/2 psi (0.1 bar) in 24 hours. Test pressure tanks at normal water level and air pressure and measure air pressure drop, which shall not exceed 11/2 psi (0.1 bar) in 24 hours.

*Measure from time inspector’s test pipe is opened
