| 2017-03-28 11:20:00 | THIS PLAN WAS REVIEWED AND FAILED BY PETER LEDUC, FIRE |
| | MARSHAL, WITH THE FOLLOWING COMMENTS: |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | 1) |
| | SHEET FP 1 OF 1 - A CLOUDED NOTE INDICATES THAT "NO |
| | PRESSURE TEST IS REQUIRED". THERE IS NO CODE REFERENCE |
| | THAT INDICATES THE PROPOSED INSTALLATION SHALL NOT BE |
| | PRESSURE TESTED. (THIS WAS NOTED ON THE PROVISO |
| | COMMNETS ON THE MASTER #16120833) |
| | |
| | PER NFPA 13, 24.2 ACCEPTANCE REQUIREMENTS. |
| | 24.2.1* HYDROSTATIC TESTS. |
| | 24.2.1.1 UNLESS PERMITTED BY 24.2.1.2 THROUGH 24.2.1.8, |
| | ALL PIPING AND ATTACHED APPURTENANCES SUBJECTED TO |
| | SYSTEM WORKING PRESSURE SHALL BE HYDROSTATICALLY TESTED |
| | AT 200 PSI (13.8 BAR) AND SHALL MAINTAIN THAT PRESSURE |
| | WITHOUT LOSS FOR 2 HOURS. |
| | 24.2.1.2 PORTIONS OF SYSTEMS NORMALLY SUBJECTED TO |
| | SYSTEM WORKING PRESSURES IN EXCESS OF 150 PSI (10.4 |
| | BAR) SHALL BE TESTED AS DESCRIBED IN 24.2.1.1, AT A |
| | PRESSURE OF 50 PSI (3.5 BAR) IN EXCESS OF SYSTEM |
| | WORKING PRESSURE. |
| | 24.2.1.4 MODIFICATIONS AFFECTING 20 OR FEWER SPRINKLERS |
| | SHALL NOT REQUIRE TESTING IN EXCESS OF SYSTEM WORKING |
| | PRESSURE. |
| | 24.2.1.5 WHERE ADDITION OR MODIFICATION IS MADE TO AN |
| | EXISTING SYSTEM AFFECTING MORE THAN 20 SPRINKLERS, THE |
| | NEW PORTION SHALL BE ISOLATED AND TESTED AT NOT LESS |
| | THAN 200 PSI (13.8 BAR) FOR 2 HOURS. |
| | 24.2.1.6 MODIFICATIONS THAT CANNOT BE ISOLATED, SUCH AS |
| | RELOCATED DROPS, SHALL NOT REQUIRE TESTING IN EXCESS OF |
| | SYSTEM WORKING PRESSURE. |
| | 24.2.1.7 LOSS SHALL BE DETERMINED BY A DROP IN GAUGE |
| | PRESSURE OR VISUAL LEAKAGE. |
| | 24.2.1.8* THE TEST PRESSURE SHALL BE READ FROM A GAUGE |
| | LOCATED AT THE LOW ELEVATION POINT OF THE SYSTEM OR |
| | PORTION BEING TESTED. THE PRESSURES IN PIPING AT HIGHER |
| | ELEVATIONS SHALL BE PERMITTED TO BE LESS THAN 200 PSI |
| | (13.8 BAR) WHEN ACCOUNTING FOR ELEVATION LOSSES. |
| | SYSTEMS OR PORTIONS OF SYSTEMS THAT CAN BE ISOLATED |
| | SHALL BE PERMITTED TO BE TESTED SEPARATELY. |
| | |
| | A PRESSURE TEST OF THE WORKING PRESSURE IS REQUIRED FOR |
| | 2 HOURS PER NFPA 13. IF AN EXISTING FIRE PUMP IS |
| | INSTALLED PLEASE ENSURE THAT THE WEEKLY TEST/CHURN TEST |
| | IS CALCULATED. |
| | |
| | PLEASE REMOVE OR CORRECT THE NOTE OR JUSTIFY YOUR |
| | POSITION. |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | 2) |
| | SHEET FP 1 OF 1 - THERE ARE INCORRECT CODE REFERENCES |
| | INDICATED IN THE DESIGN NOTES SECTION; NFPA 13, |
| | 16.2.1.4 & 16.2.1.6 . THE CORRECT CODE REFERENCES ARE |
| | NOTED ABOVE. |
| | |
| | PLEASE REMOVE OR CORRECT THE CODE REFENCES OR JUSTIFY |
| | YOUR POSITION. |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | 3) |
| | THE APPLICATION FORM INDICATES "REMOVE ADDITIONAL |
| | HEADS" THERE ARE NO INDICATIONS, CLOUDS, OR OTHER TYPE |
| | OF CALL-OUT SHOWING WHICH HEADS ARE REMOVED OR CHANGED. |
| | |
| | PLEASE INDICATE WHAT HEADS ARE AFFECTED AND THEIR |
| | LOCATIONS. |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | 4) WHEN RESUBMITTING, PLEASE PROVIDE PLAN SHEET |
| | REVISION CLOUDS OR NUMBERED NARRATIVE RESPONSES TO THE |
| | ABOVE. |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | 5) ADDITIONAL COMMENTS MAY BE PROVIDED ON THE |
| | RE-SUBMITTAL OF THE ABOVE. |
