| 2007-12-24 12:20:54 | 1. THE WORDING ON THE REVISED NOTE # 26 IS INCORRECT. |
| | THE WORD DISPLAY SHOULD READ TRANSMIT. FOUR DISTINCT |
| | SIGNALS WATERFLOW, GENERAL ALARM, TROUBLE AND |
| | SUPERVISORY SHALL BE TRANSMITTED TO THE CENTRAL STATION |
| | APPROVED FOR CENTRAL STATION SERVICE. |
| | |
| | 2. THE REVISED DRAWINGS THAT REFLECT A COMPLETE SMOKE |
| | DETECTION SYSTEM FOR THE BUILDING SHALL BE SUBMITTED TO |
| | THE CONSTRUCTION SERVICES DEPARTMENT AS A SEPARATE |
| | ENTITY AS SHOP DRAWINGS. THESE SHOP DRAWINGS SHALL |
| | PROVIDE PRODUCT INFORMATION CUT SHEETS, BATTERY |
| | CALCUALTIONS, RISER DIAGRAMS AND FLOORS PLANS |
| | ILLUSTRATING DEVICE PLACEMENT FOR THE ENTIRE FIRE ALARM |
| | SYSTEM. |
| | |
| | 3. THERE APPEARS TO BE SOME CONFUSION WITH REGARDS TO |
| | THE FIRE RATING REQUIRED FOR THE FIRE COMMAND ROOM. THE |
| | FIRE COMMAND ROOM IS REQUIRED TO BE SEPARATED FROM |
| | OTHER AREAS OF THE BUILDING BY AT LEAST ONE HOUR FIRE |
| | RATED CONSTRUCTION. SOME DOCUMENTATION PROVIDED WITH |
| | DRAWINGS INDICATES THAT NO FIRE DAMPER IS NEEDED FOR |
| | THE ROOM SINCE IT IS NOT FIRE RATED. THIS IS INCORRECT. |
| | NFPA 1, SECTION 11.9.2 REQUIRES THAT "THE EMERGENCY |
| | COMMAND CENTER SHALL BE SEPARATED FROM THE REMAINDER OF |
| | THE BUILDING BY A FIRE BARRIER HAVING A FIRE RESISTANCE |
| | RATING OF NOT LESS THAN 1 HOUR". |
