The results, 86 psi static pressure and 40 psi residual pressure at a flow of 659 gpm at the point of connection to the existing water supply, equate to a Q20 of 800 gpm at the site, inadequate to satisfy the minimum fire flow of 1,000 gpm at 20 psi for the building per UFC 3-600-01 Paragraph 9-2.1. Two water storage tanks will be included in the project to address these issues. Two tanks are needed as one may be out of service at the time of a fire. Sizing of the tanks shall be based on hydraulic analysis and may take advantage of hydraulically calculated refill rate during firefighting operations as operations throughout the SERE facility will cease upon activation of the fire alarm system in any building (alarms will be required to sound throughout site).

Speakers and strobes shall be omitted from the Holding Rooms in order to maintain the Second World appearance of those rooms but the speakers in the hallways shall be provided at a sufficient audibility to achieve 15 dB above ambient sound levels in the Holding Rooms. This may necessitate higher wattage speakers than are typical.

Manual pull stations shall be double action surface mount mounted. Pull stations shall not be located where accessible to students. Provide smoke detectors with sounder bases above sleeping areas. Any alarm shall override the PA system.

4.8 FIRE DEPARTMENT ACCESS:

Fire department access shall comply with NFPA 1 Section 18.2.3.2.2.1 as required by UFC 3-600-01 Section 2-10.2, providing fire department equipment access within 450 feet of the entire perimeter of this sprinklered building and within 33 feet of an entrance to the building.
