About this file

This document is a technical specification for a Deluge Fire Suppression System project at California State Prison, Solano, prepared by Stantec for the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation (CDCR). The specification, dated October 16, 2018, details the technical requirements for replacing the hydronic loop and installing a deluge fire suppression system, with a focus on specific installation standards, materials, and methods. The project involves implementing a fire protection system that complies with NFPA 13, NFPA 15, NFPA 24, and the 2016 California Fire Code, with specific attention to sprinkler systems, piping, valves, and related components.

The specification outlines comprehensive technical requirements including materials specifications, installation procedures, and quality assurance standards. Key technical requirements include using UL-listed and FMG-approved components, installing piping with specific joint construction methods, and ensuring earthquake protection. The system is designed for a maximum working pressure of 175 psig, with detailed provisions for seismic performance, hydraulic calculations, and system testing. The specification requires the contractor to have a valid California C-16 contractor's license and to submit detailed working drawings and hydraulic calculations for approval by the State Fire Marshal before implementation.
