1.2 SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
Provide wet pipe sprinkler system(s) in all areas of the building .
Except as modified herein, the system must meet the requirements of NFPA 13 .
Pipe sizes which are not indicated on the Contract drawings must be determined by hydraulic calculations.
1.2.1 Hydraulic Design
1.2.1.1 Basis for Calculations
A waterflow test was performed on 10 March 2021 at Building 3534. The results are as indicated on the design drawings. Perform a fire hydrant flow test prior to shop drawing submittal in accordance with NFPA 291 .
Results must include hydrant elevations relative to the building and hydrant number/identifiers for the tested hydrants, including which were flowed, which had a gauge. This information must be presented in a tabular form if multiple hydrants were flowed. The results must be included with the hydraulic calculations. Hydraulic calculations must be based upon the Hazen-Williams formula with a "C" value noted in NFPA 13 for piping. Hydraulic calculations must be based on operation of the fire pump(s) provided in Section 21 30 00 FIRE PUMPS.
1.2.1.2 Hydraulic Calculations
a. Water supply curves and system requirements must be plotted on semi-logarithmic graph (N^1.85) paper so as to present a summary of the complete hydraulic calculation.
b. Provide a summary sheet listing sprinklers in the design area and their respective hydraulic reference points, elevations, minimum discharge pressures and minimum flows. Elevations of hydraulic reference points (nodes) must be indicated.
c. Documentation must identify each pipe individually and the nodes connected thereto. Indicate the diameter, length, flow, velocity, friction loss, number and type fittings, total friction loss in the pipe, equivalent pipe length and Hazen-Williams coefficient for each pipe.
d. Where the sprinkler system is supplied by interconnected risers , the sprinkler system must be hydraulically calculated using the hydraulically most demanding single riser. The calculations must n ot assume the simultaneous use of more than one riser.
W912HV-23-R-0004 SECTION 21 13 13 Page 3 Jacobs D3449300
Kadena Air Base, Japan
e. For gridded systems, calculations must show peaking of demand area friction loss to verify that the hydraulically most demanding area is being used. A flow diagram indicating the quantity and direction of flows must be included.
1.2.1.3 Design Criteria
Hydraulically design the system to discharge a minimum density over the hydraulically most demanding floor areaas indicated on the drawings.
Hydraulic calculations must be in accordance with the Area/Density Method of NFPA 13. Add an allowance for exterior hose streams shall be as indicated on design drawing at the point of connection to the existing water system.
1.2.2 Sprinkler Coverage
Sprinklers must be uniformly spaced on branch lines. Provide coverage throughout 100 percent of the building. This includes, but is not limited to, telephone rooms, electrical equipment rooms (regardless of the fire resistance rating of the enclosure), boiler rooms, switchgear rooms, transformer rooms, attached electrical vaults and other electrical and mechanical spaces. Coverage per sprinkler must be in accordance with NFPA 13 . Provide sprinklers below all obstructions in accordance with NFPA 13 . Sprinklers beneath obstructions must be served by the same sprinkler system as the obstructed area being served.
1.2.3 Qualified Fire Protection Engineer (QFPE)
An individual who is a licensed professional engineer (P.E.) who has passed the fire protection engineering written examination administered by the National Council of Examiners for Engineering and Surveying (NCEES) and has relevant fire protection engineering experience. Services of the QFPE must include:
a. Reviewing SD-02, SD-03, and SD-05 submittal packages for completeness and compliance with the provisions of this specification. Working (shop) drawings and calculations must be prepared by, or prepared under the immediate supervision of, the QFPE. The QFPE must affix their professional engineering stamp with signature to the shop drawings, calculations, and material data sheets, indicating approv al prior to submitting the shop drawings to the DFPE.
b. Provide a letter documenting that the SD-02, SD-03, and SD-05 submittal package has been reviewed and noting all outstanding comments.
c. Performing in-progress construction surveillance prior to installation of ceilings (rough-in inspection).
