1.2 SYSTEM DESCRIPTION

a. Furnish piping offsets, fittings, and any other accessories as required to provide a complete installation and to eliminate interference with other construction. Install sprinkler over and under ducts, piping and platforms when such equipment can negatively affect or disrupt the sprinkler discharge pattern and coverage.

b. Modify preaction sprinkler system(s) in areas indicated on the drawings .

The sprinkler system shall provide fire sprinkler protection for the entire area. Except as modified herein, the system shall meet the requirements of NFPA 13 and NFPA 72 .

c. Design any portions of the sprinkler system that are not indicated on the drawings or are not specified herein, including locating sprinklers, piping, and equipment, and size piping and equipment.

Determine pipe sizes which are not indicated on the drawings by hydraulic calculations.

1.2.1 Hydraulic Design

Hydraulically design the system to discharge a minimum density of 0.20 over the hydraulically most demanding of floor area. The minimum pipe size for branch lines in gridded systems shall be 32 mm. Hydraulic calculations shall be in accordance with the Area/Density Method of NFPA 13 .

Water velocity in the piping shall not exceed 6 m/s.

1.2.1.1 Basis for Calculations

Obtain a new fire pump test performed per NFPA 20 and 25 and base design of

SECTION 21 13 18.00 10 Page 3 the sprinkler system on the water supply provided at the discharge flange of the fire pump. Base hydraulic calculations upon the Hazen-Williams formula with a "C" value of 120 for all new steel piping, 140 for new cement-lined ductile-iron piping, and 100 for existing underground piping.

a. Outline hydraulic calculations as in NFPA 13 , except that calculations shall be performed by computer using software intended specifically for fire protection system design using the design data shown on the drawings. Submit hydraulic calculations, including a drawing showing hydraulic reference points and pipe segments. Software that uses k-factors for typical branch lines is not acceptable. Calculations shall substantiate that the design area used in the calculations is the most demanding hydraulically.

b. Plot water supply curves and system requirements on semi-logarithmic graph paper so as to present a summary of the complete hydraulic calculation. Provide a summary sheet listing sprinklers in the design area and their respective hydraulic reference points, elevations, actual discharge pressures and actual flows. Indicate elevations of hydraulic reference points (nodes). Documentation shall identify each pipe individually and the nodes connected thereto. Indicate for each pipe the diameter, length, flow, velocity, friction loss, number and type fittings, total friction loss in the pipe, equivalent pipe length and Hazen-Williams coefficient.

c. For gridded systems, calculations shall show peaking of demand area friction loss to verify that the hydraulically most demanding area is being used. Also for gridded systems, include a flow diagram indicating the quantity and direction of flows. A drawing showing hydraulic reference points (nodes) and pipe designations used in the calculations shall be included and shall be independent of shop drawings.

1.2.2 Sprinkler Coverage

Uniformly space sprinklers on branch lines. In buildings protected by automatic sprinklers, provide coverage throughout 100 percent of the building. This includes, but is not limited to, telephone rooms, electrical equipment rooms, boiler rooms, switchgear rooms, transformer rooms, and other electrical and mechanical spaces. Coverage per sprinkler shall be in accordance with NFPA 13 , but shall not exceed 9 square m for extra hazard occupancies, 12 square m for ordinary hazard occupancies, and 21 square m for light hazard occupancies. Exceptions are as follows:

a. Facilities that are designed in accordance with NFPA 13R and NFPA 13D.

b. Sprinklers may be omitted from small rooms which are exempted for specific occupancies in accordance with NFPA 101 .

1.2.3 Control System

The control system shall meet the requirements of NFPA 72 . The control panel shall be listed in UL Fire Prot Dir or FM APP GUIDE for "Releasing Device Service". The control panel and the solenoid valve that activates the water control valves shall be compatible with each other.

Compatibility shall be in accordance with specific UL listing or FM approval of the control equipment.

SECTION 21 13 18.00 10 Page 4

1.2.3.1 Power Supply

Provide the primary operating power from two single-phase 120 VAC circuits. Transfer from normal to backup power and restoration from backup to normal power shall be fully automatic and shall not initiate a false alarm. Loss of primary power shall not prevent actuation of the respective automatic water control valve upon activation of any alarm initiating device. Provide backup power through use of rechargeable, sealed, lead calcium storage batteries.

1.2.3.2 Circuit Requirements

Connect alarm initiating devices to initiating device circuits (IDC), Style D or to signal line circuits (SLC), Style 6 , in accordance with NFPA 72 .

Alarm notification or indicating appliances shall be connected to indicating appliance circuit (IAC), Style W in accordance with NFPA 72 .

Provide a separate circuit for actuation of each individual automatic water control valve. Fully supervise the circuits that actuate the water control valves so that the occurrence of a single open or a single ground fault condition in the interconnecting conductors will be indicated at the control panel.

1.2.4 System Operational Features

Include in the system a heat detection system, manual actuation stations, supervisory and alarm switches, alarm notification appliances, control panel and associated equipment. Provide preaction sprinkler system piping with supervisory air pressure not to exceed 210 kPa.

1.2.4.1 System Actuation

Activation of any single heat detector or a single manual actuation station shall actuate alarm zone circuits of the control panel that, in turn, shall actuate the corresponding automatic water control valve. Actuation of the automatic water control valve shall cause water to fill the preaction system piping and be discharged from fused sprinklers .

1.2.4.2 Alarm Functions

Activation of any heat detector or sprinkler pressure alarm switch or manual actuation station shall cause the illumination of the respective zone annunciator, and transmission of the alarm to the base-wide fire reporting system. Valve tamper alarm shall be monitored by the system control panel and transmitted to the building fire alarm system as a trouble alarm.

1.2.4.3 Supervisory Functions

The reduction of supervisory air pressure within the sprinkler system piping to less than 70 kPa or the occurrence of a single open or a single ground fault in any alarm initiating device circuit, in the automatic water control valve actuation circuit, in any alarm indicating appliance circuit or in other electrically supervised circuit shall cause the individually labelled control panel trouble light to be illuminated, the audible trouble alarm to be activated, and a trouble alarm to be transmitted to the building fire alarm control panel and to base-wide fire reporting system.
