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 September 5, 2018 on Thayer Road and resulted in a static pressure of 58 with a residual pressure of 51 while flowing 993 gpm. 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
SECTION 21 13 13 Page 3 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 on a flow test performed within 12 months of shop drawing submittal, unless verified by a Fire Protection Engineer and approved by Contracting Officer. Hydraulic calculations must be based upon the Hazen-Williams formula with a "C" value noted in NFPA 13 for piping, and 140 for existing underground piping. Hydraulic calculations must be based on operation of the fire pump(s) provided in Section 21 30 00 FIRE PUMPS. The minimum residual pressure in a service lateral (lead-in) at the 150% of the fire pump rated flow must be 20 psi at the inlet to the backflow preventer. A minimum of 8 psi must be used for BFP pressure loss in the hydraulic calculations completed.
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 not assume the simultaneous use of more than one riser.
e. All calculations must include the backflow preventer manufacturer's stated friction loss at the design flow or 8 psi for double check backflow preventer, whichever is greater.
f. All calculations must be performed back to the actual location of the flow test, taking into account the direction of flow in the service main at the test location.
g. 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 as 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 of 250 gpm to the sprinkler system demand at the fire hydrant shown on the drawings closest to the point where the water service enters the building.
SECTION 21 13 13 Page 4
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 . Exceptions are as follows:
a. Sprinklers may be omitted from small rooms which are exempted for specific occupancies in accordance with NFPA 101 .
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 approval 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).
d. Witnessing pre-Government and final Government functional performance testing and performing a final installation review.
e. Signing applicable certificates under SD-07.
1.3 SUBMITTALS
Government approval is required for submittals with a "G" designation;
submittals not having a "G" designation are for information only. When used, a designation following the "G" designation identifies the office that will review the submittal for the Government. Partial submittals and submittals not fully complying with NFPA 13 and this specification section must be returned disapproved without review. SD-02, SD-03 and SD-05 must be submitted simultaneously.
Shop drawings (SD-02), product data (SD-03) and calculations (SD-05) must be prepared by the designer and combined and submitted as one complete package. The QFPE must review the SD-02/SD-03/SD-05 submittal package for completeness and compliance with the Contract provisions prior to submission to the Government. The QFPE must provide a Letter of Confirmation that they have reviewed the submittal package for compliance with the contract provisions. This letter must include their professional
