| | PERMIT #16061443 |
| | REVIEW COMMENTS - FIRE DEPARTMENT |
| | NOTE: UNLESS NOTED OTHERWISE, ALL FIRE/LIFE SAFETY |
| | REVIEW COMMENTS REFERENCE NFPA 101-THE LIFE SAFETY CODE |
| | (2012 EDITION WITH FLORIDA AMENDMENTS.) |
| | |
| | |
| | REPEAT COMMENT - SHEET C-10: THE FIRE LINE BACKFLOW |
| | PREVENTERS CAN BE USED TO CONTROL THE WATER SUPPLY. THE |
| | ADDITIONAL PIVS SHOULD BE ELIMINATED. ALSO PER NFPA 24 |
| | SECTION 6.2.1, ALL CONNECTIONS TO PRIVATE FIRE SERVICE |
| | MAINS FOR FIRE PROTECTION SYSTEMS SHALL BE ARRANGED IN |
| | ACCORDANCE WITH ONE OF THE FOLLOWING SO THAT THEY CAN |
| | BE ISOLATED: |
| | (1) A WALL POST INDICATOR VALVE |
| | (2) A BACKFLOW PREVENTER WITH AT LEAST ONE INDICATING |
| | VALVE NOT LESS THAN 40 FEET FROM THE BUILDING |
| | (3) CONTROL VALVES INSTALLED IN A FIRE-RATED ROOM |
| | ACCESSIBLE FROM THE EXTERIOR |
| | (4) CONTROL VALVES IN A FIRE-RATED STAIR ENCLOSURE |
| | ACCESSIBLE FROM THE EXTERIOR AS PERMITTED BY THE |
| | AUTHORITY HAVING JURISDICTION |
| | |
| | SHEET A1.14: PLANS INDICATE A COMMON PATH OF TRAVEL |
| | DISTANCE OF 115 FEET FROM STORAGE #405. THE FIRE CODE |
| | LIMITS THE COMMON PATH OF TRAVEL TO 100 FEET IN STORAGE |
| | OCCUPANCIES. |
| | |
| | REPEAT COMMENT: NO 3 FOOT HIGH PONY WALL PROVIDED. THE |
| | DETAILS ON THE ARCHITECTURAL AND FIRE PROTECTION |
| | DRAWINGS ARE INSUFFICIENT TO ENSURE GLAZING DESIGN, |
| | MULLION DEPTHS AND SPRINKLER COVERAGE IS CORRECT. |
| | ORIGINAL COMMENT - SHEET A1.12 & A8.05: PLANS INDICATE |
| | THE USE OF TYCO WINDOW SPRINKLERS (WINDOW TYPES UU, WW |
| | & YY) IN LIEU OF FIRE RATED GLAZING. PROVIDE A |
| | SPRINKLER INSTALLATION WINDOW DETAIL ACCORDING TO THE |
| | MANUFACTURER'S LISTING CRITERIA. THE SPRINKLER LISTING |
| | DETAILS ARE VERY PARTICULAR AND REQUIRE SPRINKLERS ON |
| | BOTH SIDES OF THE GLAZING. THE MAXIMUM GLAZING HEIGHT |
| | IS LIMITED TO 13 FEET. THE GLASS CURTAIN WALL NEEDS TO |
| | BE ATTACHED TO A THREE FOOT HIGH PONY WALL TO KEEP |
| | COMBUSTIBLE MATERIALS AT LEAST TWO-INCHES AWAY FROM THE |
| | GLAZING. VERTICAL MULLIONS SHALL BE OF A DEPTH THAT |
| | PREVENTS COLD SOLDERING OF ADJACENT SPRINKLERS. THE |
| | SPRINKLER DESIGN SHOULD INDICATE WHICH WINDOW SPRINKLER |
| | MODEL WILL BE USED (HORIZONTAL SIDEWALL OR PENDENT |
| | VERTICAL SIDEWALL) AS THIS WILL AFFECT HOW DEEP THE |
| | VERTICAL MULLIONS NEED TO BE. A MULLION WILL ACT AS A |
| | BAFFLE WHEN THE MULLION EXTENDS TO THE BACK OF |
| | SPRINKLER DEFLECTOR (PENDENT VERTICAL SIDEWALL) OR WHEN |
| | THE MULLION EXTENDS TO THE SPRINKLER WRENCH FLAT |
| | (HORIZONTAL SIDEWALL). |
| | |
| | SHEET P2.04: PIPE SHALL NOT BE ROUTED THROUGH THE FIRE |
| | RATED EXIT STAIR ENCLOSURE OF STAIR #3. THIS IS |
| | PROHIBITED BY NFPA 101. |
| | |
| | REPEAT COMMENT: THE GREASE DUCT DISCHARGE IS NOT PER |
| | NFPA 96 SECTION 7.8.3. THE GENERATOR AIR INTAKE IS |
| | DIRECTLY ABOVE THE GREASE DUCT EXHAUST. PER NFPA 96 THE |
| | CLOSEST POINT OF ANY AIR INTAKE OR OPERABLE DOOR OR |
| | WINDOW ABOVE THE PLANE OF THE EXHAUST TERMINATION SHALL |
| | BE A MINIMUM OF 10 FEET IN DISTANCE, PLUS 3-INCHES FOR |
| | EACH 1 DEGREE FROM HORIZONTAL, THE ANGLE OF DEGREE |
| | BEING MEASURED FROM THE CENTER OF THE EXHAUST |
| | TERMINATION TO THE CENTER OF THE AIR INTAKE OR OPERABLE |
| | DOOR OR WINDOW, AS INDICATED IN FIGURE 7.8.3. |
| | ORIGINAL COMMENT - SHEET M2.01: THE THREE KITCHEN |
| | EXHAUST FANS INDICATE SIDEWALL DISCHARGE; HOWEVER, THE |
| | AIR LOUVERS FOR THE GARAGE APPEAR TO BE LOCATED WITHIN |
| | 32 FEET OF THE GREASE DUCT DISCHARGE PER NFPA 96 |
| | SECTION 7.8.3. |
| | |
| | SHEET FP2.02: PROVIDE STANDPIPE AND HOSE VALVES IN NEW |
| | STAIR #3. |
| | |
| | |
| | SHEET FP2.02: HOW WILL THE TYCO WINDOW SPRINKLERS ON |
| | THE WEST SIDE OF THE GLAZING BE ATTACHED TO THE |
| | STRUCTURE? TWO SPRINKLERS ARE LOCATED ON THE VERTICAL |
| | MULLION. WHAT IS THE DEPTH OF THE MULLION AND HOW WILL |
| | BE ENSURED THAT THE ENTIRE SURFACE OF THE GLAZING IS |
| | WETTED? WHAT WINDOW SPRINKLER MODEL IS BEING USED |
| | (PENDENT VERTICAL SIDEWALL OR HORIZONTAL SIDEWALL)? |
| | SPRINKLER SCHEDULE INDICATES THE USE OF A VIKING |
| | SPRINKLER. |
| | |
| | SHEET FP2.05: THE SPRINKLERS PROTECTING THE FIRST FLOOR |
| | RESTAURANT AREA ARE LOCATED 75 FEET ABOVE THE FLOOR |
| | BEING PROTECTED. THIS ELEVATION DIFFERENCE AND |
| | SUSPENDED ARCHITECTURAL FEATURES WILL CERTAINLY DELAY |
| | SPRINKLER ACTIVATION IF ACTIVATION OCCURS AT ALL. HAS |
| | SMOKE/HEAT STRATIFICATION BEEN EVALUATED FOR THIS TALL |
| | CEILING? WILL THE WATER DROPLETS FROM STANDARD SPRAY |
| | SPRINKLERS BE ABLE TO REACH THE SEAT OF THE FIRE OR |
| | WILL EVAPORATION BE A FACTOR ALLOWING A FIRE IN THIS |
| | AREA GROW TO A SIZE THAT CANNOT BE CONTROLLED BY THE |
| | CEILING SPRINKLERS? THIS AREA NEEDS AN IN-DEPTH |
| | ENGINEERING ANALYSIS. |
| | |
| | RESPONSE COMMENT - NOTE #32 ON SHEET FP0.00 INDICATES |
| | THE CONTRACTOR IS RESPONSIBLE FOR PRESSURE CONTROL. |
| | CONCEPTUAL SYSTEM PRESSURE CONTROL WILL NEED TO BE |
| | SHOWN TO A DETERMINED FLOOR LEVEL AND BE PROVIDED ON |
| | THE FIRE PROTECTION ENGINEERING DOCUMENTS WHILE ACTUAL |
| | PRESSURE CONTROL WILL NEED TO BE SHOWN THE SPRINKLER |
| | SHOP DRAWINGS. |
| | ORIGINAL COMMENT - SHEET FP4.01: SPRINKLER AND |
| | STANDPIPE SYSTEM PRESSURES APPEAR TO EXCEED 165PSIG AND |
| | 175PSIG RESPECTIVELY WITH NO MEASURES OF CONTROL. |
| | |
| | SHEET K1EP: PLAN INDICATES THE USE OF A WOOD FIRED |
| | PIZZA OVEN. HOW IS THIS OVEN BEING PROTECTED IN |
| | ACCORDANCE WITH NFPA 96 FOR SOLID FUEL COOKING |
| | OPERATIONS CONCERNING VENTING, FIRE SUPPRESSION, SOLID |
| | FUEL STORAGE, EXHAUST VENT CLEANING/MAINTENANCE, |
| | FLEXIBLE WATER HOSE, ASH DISPOSAL? SUBMIT PRODUCT AND |
| | INSTALLATION MANUAL FOR WOOD FIRED PIZZA OVEN. |
