| 2020-05-14 15:38:23 | THIS PLAN WAS REVIEWED AND FAILED BY PETER LEDUC, FIRE |
| | MARSHAL, WITH THE FOLLOWING COMMENTS: |
| | |
| | |
| | 1) THERE ARE INDICATIONS OF PULL STATIONS THROUGHTOUT |
| | ALL FLOORS AT EXIT LOCATIONS. |
| | |
| | PER NFPA 101, CH 12 |
| | |
| | 12.3.4.2 INITIATION. |
| | 12.3.4.2.1 INITIATION OF THE REQUIRED FIRE ALARM SYSTEM |
| | SHALL BE BY |
| | BOTH OF THE FOLLOWING MEANS: |
| | (1) MANUAL MEANS IN ACCORDANCE WITH 9.6.2.1(1), UNLESS |
| | OTHERWISE |
| | PERMITTED BY ONE OF THE FOLLOWING: |
| | (A) THE REQUIREMENT OF 12.3.4.2.1(1) SHALL NOT APPLY |
| | WHERE |
| | INITIATION IS BY MEANS OF AN APPROVED AUTOMATIC FIRE |
| | DETECTION SYSTEM IN ACCORDANCE WITH 9.6.2.1(2) THAT |
| | PROVIDES FIRE DETECTION THROUGHOUT THE BUILDING |
| | (B) THE REQUIREMENT OF 12.3.4.2.1(1) SHALL NOT APPLY |
| | WHERE |
| | INITIATION IS BY MEANS OF AN APPROVED AUTOMATIC |
| | SPRINKLER SYSTEM IN ACCORDANCE WITH 9.6.2.1(3) THAT |
| | PROVIDES FIRE DETECTION AND PROTECTION THROUGHOUT THE |
| | BUILDING. |
| | (2) WHERE AUTOMATIC SPRINKLERS ARE PROVIDED, INITIATION |
| | OF THE |
| | FIRE ALARM SYSTEM BY SPRINKLER SYSTEM WATERFLOW, EVEN |
| | WHERE |
| | MANUAL FIRE ALARM BOXES ARE PROVIDED IN ACCORDANCE WITH |
| | 12.3.4.2.1(1) |
| | |
| | PER NFPA 101, CH 9 |
| | |
| | 9.6.2.6* FOR FIRE ALARM SYSTEMS USING AUTOMATIC FIRE |
| | DETECTION OR |
| | WATERFLOW DETECTION DEVICES TO INITIATE THE FIRE ALARM |
| | SYSTEM IN |
| | ACCORDANCE WITH CHAPTERS 11 THROUGH 43, NOT LESS THAN |
| | ONE MANUAL |
| | FIRE ALARM BOX, LOCATED AS REQUIRED BY THE AUTHORITY |
| | HAVING |
| | JURISDICTION, SHALL BE PROVIDED TO INITIATE A FIRE |
| | ALARM SIGNAL. |
| | |
| | IN AN EFFORT TO REDUCE FALSE/ACCIDENTA/MALICIOUS ALARMS |
| | ALL BUT THREE (3) PULL STATIONS CAN BE REMOVED PER THE |
| | ABOVE NOTED CODE REFERENCES. |
| | |
| | ONE (1) PULL STATION PER FLOOR WILL BE REQUIRED WITH |
| | THE LOCATION NOTED ON THE PLAN SHEETS; 1ST FLOOR IN |
| | LOBBY UNDER HSTRB 0.1.10, 2ND FLOOR LOBBY AT LOCATION |
| | INDICATED ON PLAN UNDER HSTRB 1.1.7, 3RD FLOOR LOBBY |
| | UNDER HSTRB 1.4.2 |
| | |
| | |
| | 2) THE STROBES LOCATED WITHIN THE WOMENS AND MENS |
| | BATHROOMS ON THE 1ST AND 2ND FLOORS MAY NOT PROVIDED |
| | SUFFCIENT NOTIFICATION WITHIN THE INDIVIDUAL STALLS AT |
| | THE PROPOSED LOCATIONS. A CEILING MOUNT MAY SERVE THE |
| | AREA WITH BETTER COVERAGE. |
| | |
| | FINDING OUT THAT THE STROBE IS NOT VISIBLE AT THE TIME |
| | OF INSPECTION IN THOSE AREAS WOULD BE UNFORTUNATE. |
| | HOWEVER, SHOULD YOUR REVIEW FIND IT MEETS THE |
| | NOTIFCATION REQUIREMENTS, THE INSPECTION WOULD VERIFY. |
| | |
| | PLEASE REVIEW AND ENSURE APPLICABLE CODE COMPLIANCE. |
| | |
| | |
| | 3) WHEN RESUBMITTING, PLEASE PROVIDE PLAN SHEET |
| | REVISION CLOUDS OR NUMBERED NARRATIVE RESPONSES TO THE |
| | ABOVE. |
| | |
| | |
| | 4) ADDITIONAL COMMENTS MAY BE PROVIDED ON THE |
| | RE-SUBMITTAL OF THE ABOVE. |
