| | REVIEW COMMENTS - FIRE DEPARTMENT |
| | |
| | GENERAL: THE PLANS INDICATE A LOCATION OF "PALM BEACH" |
| | WHICH IS A TOWN EAST OF THE CITY OF WEST PALM BEACH. |
| | THE PLANS ALSO INCORRECTLY INDICATE A PLAN ADDRESS OF |
| | "5300 HAVERHILL ROAD" ON SOME SHEETS AND NONE OF THE |
| | SHEETS INDICATE THE ADDRESS OF 5454 NORTH HAVERHILL |
| | ROAD. PLEASE CORRECTLY ADDRESS EACH OF THE PLANS. |
| | |
| | GENERAL: FOR EACH AREA EXPOSED TO STRUCTURE (NO |
| | CEILING) INDICATE IF THE SPACE IS OBSTRUCTED |
| | CONSTRUCTION OR UNOBSTRUCTED CONSTRUCTION AND INDICATE |
| | THE MAXIMUM SPRINKLER DISTANCE LOCATED BELOW THE |
| | STRUCTURE OR ROOF DECK (IF OBSTRUCTED CONSTRUCTION). |
| | |
| | SHEET FP-2 -- FIELD EQUIPMENT STORAGE #11001 (REMOTE |
| | AREA #1): THE HYDRAULIC AREA SHALL BE MEASURED PARALLEL |
| | TO THE BRANCH LINES PER NFPA 13. THE ROOM DESIGN METHOD |
| | CANNOT BE USED AS THERE IS NO FIRE RATED WALLS |
| | SEPARATING THE ROOMS. SPRINKLERS ARE LOCATED AT AN |
| | ELEVATION OF ROUGHLY 12 FEET ABOVE FINISHED FLOOR; |
| | HOWEVER, THE AREA IS CALCULATED AS ORDINARY HAZARD |
| | GROUP 1 LIMITING THE STORAGE OF COMBUSTIBLES TO 8 FEET. |
| | THIS AREA MAY NEED TO BE CALCULATED AS ORDINARY HAZARD |
| | GROUP 2 TO PERMIT STORAGE GREATER THAN 8 FEET IN HEIGHT |
| | OR MEASURES SHALL BE SPECIFIED AS TO HOW THE |
| | COMBUSTIBLES WILL BE LIMITED TO 8 FEET. |
| | |
| | SHEET FP-2 -- MAINTENANCE SHOP #11125 (REMOTE AREA #2): |
| | THE HYDRAULIC AREA SHALL BE MEASURED PARALLEL TO THE |
| | BRANCH LINES PER NFPA 13. THE ROOM DESIGN METHOD CANNOT |
| | BE USED AS THERE IS NO FIRE RATED WALLS SEPARATING THE |
| | ROOMS AND THE AREA-REDUCTION METHOD FOR QUICK RESPONSE |
| | SPRINKLERS CANNOT BE USED DUE TO THE EXTRA HAZARD |
| | CLASSIFICATION. THE SPRINKLERS PROTECTING THE EXTRA |
| | HAZARD AREA (DENSITY 0.6 GPM/SF) ARE EXTENDED COVERAGE |
| | (K=11.2); HOWEVER, ACTUAL DENSITIES PROVIDED IN THE |
| | HYDRAULIC CALCULATIONS (0.27 GPM/SF OR 52.5 GPM) ARE |
| | WAY BELOW THE DESIGN DENSITY. FOR EXAMPLE SPRINKLER |
| | #101 IS PROTECTING AN SXL AREA OF ROUGHLY 12.5' X 7.0'. |
| | BEING EXTENDED COVERAGE, THE SPRINKLER AREA SHALL BE |
| | ROUNDED UP AND CALCULATED USING THE "RULE OF SQUARES" |
| | PER NFPA 13 SECTION 8.8.2.1.2. THIS WILL RESULT IN A |
| | COVERAGE AREA OF 14'X14' OR 196 SQUARE FEET AND A |
| | NEEDED FLOW OF 118 GPM PER SPRINKLER TO OBTAIN A DESIGN |
| | DENSITY OF 0.6 GPM/SF. ALSO THE TYCO MODEL ELOC K=11.2 |
| | THAT WAS SUBMITTED IS ONLY LISTED FOR PROTECTING LIGHT |
| | HAZARD OCCUPANCIES, THIS WILL ALSO AFFECT REMOTE AREAS |
| | 3 AND 4. |
| | |
| | SHEET FP-2: THE SPRINKLER SCHEDULE INDICATES THE |
| | SPRINKLER MODEL FOR THE K=11.2 TO BE "FRB;" HOWEVER, |
| | THE ACTUAL MODEL SUBMITTED IS THE "ELOC." |
| | |
| | SHEET FP-4: PLAN SCALE IS INDICATED AS 1/8"=1'-0" |
| | HOWEVER, THE PLAN IS NOT SCALABLE. |
| | |
| | SHEET FP-5: THE NATIONALS LOCKER ROOM SHOWS 5 AND 6 |
| | SPRINKLERS SUPPLIED BY 1-INCH BRANCH LINES. THIS |
| | CONFIGURATION IS NOT SUPPORTED BY HYDRAULIC |
| | CALCULATIONS. |
| | |
| | SHEET FP-5: WEIGHT ROOM #11318; NO SPRINKLER COVERAGE |
| | FOR THE EAST PORTION OF THE ROOM. |
| | |
| | SHEET FP-5: STORAGE ROOM #11325, STORAGE #11220 AND |
| | LAUNDRY ROOM #11313 THE SXL COVERAGE FOR ONE OR MORE |
| | SPRINKLERS EXCEEDS 130 SQ.FT. |
| | |
| | SHEET FP-6: APPEARS THERE IS NO SPRINKLER COVERAGE IN |
| | JANITOR #11430 OR NOOK DIRECTLY WEST OF THE JANITOR'S |
| | ROOM. |
| | |
| | SHEET FP-8: STORAGE ROOM #11714 AND LAUNDRY #11706 THE |
| | SXL COVERAGE FOR ONE OR MORE SPRINKLERS EXCEEDS 130 |
| | SQ.FT. |
| | |
| | SHEET FP-12: LOBBY #11408 IS OPEN TO THE LEVEL BELOW SO |
| | THE SPRINKLERS SHALL BE SUPPLIED FROM THE FLOOR BELOW |
| | TO AVOID LOCATION CONFUSION WHEN THE FIRE IS ON THE |
| | CLUBHOUSE LEVEL BUT THE FLOW SWITCH ALARM SHOWS THE |
| | FIRE IS ON THE UPPER CONCOURSE LEVEL. COORDINATION IS |
| | NEEDED WITH THE ARCHITECT -- SHEET A2.324 1ST FLOOR |
| | LOBBY #11408 IS OPEN TO THE SECOND FLOOR CORRIDOR |
| | #12412B. PER SECTION 8.6.9.2 UNENCLOSED VERTICAL |
| | OPENINGS CREATED BY CONVENIENCE STAIRWAYS SHALL BE |
| | PERMITTED AS FOLLOWS: 1) THE CONVENIENCE STAIR OPENING |
| | SHALL BE PROTECTED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE METHOD |
| | DETAILED FOR THE PROTECTION OF VERTICAL OPENINGS IN |
| | NFPA 13, STANDARD FOR THE INSTALLATION OF SPRINKLER |
| | SYSTEMS UTILIZING 18" DEEP DRAFT CURTAINS AND CLOSELY |
| | SPACED SPRINKLERS. |
| | |
| | SHEET FP-15: LOBBY #11711 IS OPEN TO THE LEVEL BELOW SO |
| | THE SPRINKLERS SHALL BE SUPPLIED FROM THE FLOOR BELOW |
| | TO AVOID LOCATION CONFUSION WHEN THE FIRE IS ON THE |
| | CLUBHOUSE LEVEL BUT THE FLOW SWITCH ALARM SHOWS THE |
| | FIRE IS ON THE UPPER CONCOURSE LEVEL. COORDINATION IS |
| | NEEDED WITH THE ARCHITECT -- SHEET A2.227: 1ST FLOOR |
| | LOBBY #11711 IS OPEN TO THE SECOND FLOOR RECEPTION |
| | #12704. PER SECTION 8.6.9.2 UNENCLOSED VERTICAL |
| | OPENINGS CREATED BY CONVENIENCE STAIRWAYS SHALL BE |
| | PERMITTED AS FOLLOWS: 1) THE CONVENIENCE STAIR OPENING |
| | SHALL BE PROTECTED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE METHOD |
| | DETAILED FOR THE PROTECTION OF VERTICAL OPENINGS IN |
| | NFPA 13, STANDARD FOR THE INSTALLATION OF SPRINKLER |
| | SYSTEMS UTILIZING 18" DEEP DRAFT CURTAINS AND CLOSELY |
| | SPACED SPRINKLERS. |
| | |
| | REMOTE AREA AND HYDRAULIC CALCULATIONS (SPECIFICALLY |
| | REMOTE AREAS #1, 2, 7,8, 10,12 & 14): NO AREAS INDICATE |
| | THE USE OF THE ROOM DESIGN METHOD AND ONLY REMOTE AREA |
| | #9 INDICATES THE USE OF THE AREA REDUCTION METHOD FOR |
| | QUICK RESPONSE SPRINKLERS; HOWEVER SEVERAL OTHER AREAS |
| | DO NOT CALCULATE A FULL 1,500 SQ.FT. |
