1.2 SYSTEM DESCRIPTION

Furnish piping offsets, fittings, and any other accessories as required to provide a complete installation and to eliminate interference with other construction. Install sprinkler system over and under ducts, piping and platforms when such equipment can negatively effect or disrupt the sprinkler discharge pattern and coverage. Provide wet pipe sprinkler system in areas indicated on the drawings. Except as modified herein, the system shall be designed and installed in accordance with NFPA 13 , and UFC 3-600-01 . Pipe sizes which are not indicated on drawings shall be determined by hydraulic calculation. Design any portions of the sprinkler system that are not indicated on the drawings including locating sprinklers, piping and equipment, and size piping and equipment when this information is not indicated on the drawings or is not specified herein.

The design of the sprinkler system shall be based on hydraulic calculations, and the other provisions specified herein.

1.2.1 Hydraulic Design

Hydraulically design the support area systems to discharge a minimum density as indicated on the drawings. The minimum pipe size for branch lines in gridded systems shall be 1 1/4 - inch . Hydraulic calculations shall be in accordance with the Area/Density Method of NFPA 13 . Water velocity in the piping shall not exceed 20 feet per second .

1.2.1.1 Hose Demand

The sprinkler systems are supplied via a new fire pump and water storage tank system which does not supply the existing and new fire hydrants on base; therefore, hose stream allowances are not required to be added to the sprinkler system demands.

1.2.1.2 Basis for Calculations

Water supply shall be presumed available at the discharge of the fire pumps. Hydraulic calculations shall be based upon the Hazen-Williams formula with a "C" value of 120 for steel piping, 140 for new cement-lined ductile-iron piping, and 100 for existing underground piping. Hydraulic calculations shall be based on operation of the fire pump(s) provided in Section 21 30 00 FIRE PUMPS .

1.2.1.3 Hydraulic Calculations

Submit hydraulic calculations, including a drawing showing hydraulic reference points and pipe segments and as outlined 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. Software that uses k-factors for typical branch lines is not acceptable. Calculations shall be based on the water supply data shown on the drawings to substantiate that the design area used in the calculations is the most demanding hydraulically. Water supply curves and system requirements shall be plotted on semi-logarithmic graph paper so as to present a summary of the complete hydraulic calculation. Provide a

SECTION 21 13 13.00 10 Page 3 summary sheet listing sprinklers in the design area and their respective hydraulic reference points, elevations, actual discharge pressures and actual flows. Elevations of hydraulic reference points (nodes) shall be indicated. Documentation shall 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. 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, a flow diagram indicating the quantity and direction of flows shall be included. The hydraulic calculations, shop drawings and product data shall be submitted concurrently for review.

Partial submittals shall not be permitted.

1.2.2 Sprinkler Coverage

Sprinklers shall be uniformly spaced on branch lines. In buildings protected by automatic sprinklers, sprinklers shall 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 100 square feet for hazard category 3 occupancies , 130 square feet for hazard category 2 occupancies , and 225 square feet for hazard category 1 occupancies . Exceptions are as follows:

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

1.3 SUBMITTALS

Government approval is required for submittals with a "G" designation;

submittals not having a "G" designation are for Contractor Quality Control only. When used, a designation following the "G" designation identifies the office that will review the submittal for the Government. Submit the following in accordance with Section 01 33 00 SUBMITTAL PROCEDURES:

Submittal shall be a single package combined with the fire sprinkler system, fire pump system, foam system, and foam releasing system and include required criteria of NFPA 13. Partial submittals will be returned without review.

See Sections 21 13 18.00 10 , 21 13 25.00 and 21 30 00 for additional submittal requirements to be coordinated and sent to the Air National Guard Fire Protection Engineer.

1.4 QUALITY ASSURANCE

Compliance with referenced NFPA standards is mandatory. This includes advisory provisions listed in the appendices of such standards, as though the word "shall" had been substituted for the word "should" wherever it appears. In the event of a conflict between specific provisions of this specification and applicable NFPA standards, this specification shall govern. Reference to "authority having jurisdiction" shall be interpreted to mean the Contracting Officer.

1.4.1 Fire Protection Specialist

Perform work specified in this section under the supervision of and certified by the Fire Protection Specialist who is an individual registered professional engineer who has passed the fire protection engineering written examination administered by the National Council of Examiners for Engineering and Surveys (NCEES) or in a related engineering discipline with a minimum of 5 years experience, dedicated to fire protection engineering that can be verified with documentation. Submit the name and documentation of certification of the proposed Fire Protection Specialists, no later than 15 calendar days after the Notice to Proceed and prior to the submittal of the sprinkler system drawings and hydraulic calculations. The Fire Protection Specialist shall prepare and submit a list of the fire protection related submittals , no later than 7 days after the approval of the Fire Protection Specialist, from the Contract Submittal Register that relate to the successful installation of the sprinkler systems(s). The submittals identified on this list shall be accompanied by a letter of approval signed and dated by the Fire Protection Specialist when submitted to the Government.
