NFPA 13 suggests adjusting water supply data used in sprinkler demand calculations as appropriate but making too large an adjustment can ultimately create just as many problems as making one that is too small.  This presentation summarizes some of the factors that should be considered for assessing adjustments as well as potential negative consequences of adjusting water supply data too aggressively.

DoD projects can be challenging by their very nature. Having to apply Unified Facilities Criteria (UFC) concurrent with NFPA requirements can complicate matters if not properly implemented. The UFC imposes many requirements that are more restrictive than those found in NFPA standards. However, locating the requirements is not always simple. Understanding where and how to find UFC requirements, and how to integrate these requirements with those of NFPA standards is paramount for a successful project. The impact of not knowing these things can be costly in terms of time, money and reputation. This presentation will explain how the UFC and NFPA requirements can be used effectively to maintain profit and complete fire protection system projects on time without surprises.

This course addresses the Trade Up in the International Building Codes. The 1973 America Burning report encouraged the U.S. building codes to allow more increased active fire protection systems to reduce passive fire protection systems. This becomes the birth of the tradeoff, or when lives and properties are saved, it is better referred to as the “trade up”. Since then, the NFSA and many allies have been involved in the model code arena to promote the attributes of fire sprinkler systems. This program will highlight some of the long serving trade ups in the model codes, the financial benefits of trade ups for building designers and building owners, and tools to convince customers and communities that fire sprinkler systems and trade ups save lives, property and money which benefit everyone that uses current codes.

NFPA 13 includes a chapter called “Specially Occupancy Requirements”. In the 2019 edition this is chapter 26. This chapter basically extracts fire sprinkler requirements from other NFPA standards for specific situations. For example, in facilities where there is a paint spray booth, there is a section that extracts applicable sprinkler requirements from NFPA 33, Standard for Spray Application Using Flammable or Combustible Materials. If your project includes a hypobaric chamber, Chapter 26 includes some important extracts from NFPA 99B, Standard for Hypobaric Facilities. The list goes on and Chapter 26 includes requirements from 36 separate NFPA standards.

As part of the 2018 NFPA code cycle, two documents are changing in ways that will impact the way you do business. First, NFPA 3, Recommended Practice for Commissioning of Fire Protection and Life Safety Systems will become a standard. Both NFPA 3 and NFPA 4, Standard for Integrated Fire Protection and Life Safety System Testing are being incorporated through reference into the International Building Code, NPFA 101, Life Safety Code and NFPA 5000, the Building Construction and Safety Code. The important changes impacting how sprinkler systems are commissioned will be discussed as NFPA 3 becomes a standard. What will you need to do that you aren’t doing now? How will this impact cost and time? The important changes impacting integrated testing will be discussed as NFPA 4 becomes more widely used. Will every sprinkler system supervised by a fire alarm system require integrated testing plans and written procedures? These important topics will be discussed.

The International Fire Code (IFC) is a model fire code that has numerous fire protection layout, density and installation differences from the other national referenced standards, such as NFPA 13, NFPA 13R and NFPA 14. When fire protection requirements found in the model codes differ from those found in the referenced standards, the requirements of the model codes overrule the requirements of the referenced standard. This means, fire sprinkler contractors and layout technicians without knowledge of the IFC can find themselves delayed with costly change orders at times when it is most inconvenient. This course highlights the areas such as; sprinklers in open corridors, balcony sprinklers, density differences, high-piled storage and much more.

NFPA 13 requires sprinklers to be installed to protect all areas of a building unless an area is specifically permitted to allow omission of sprinklers by a section of the standard. Section 8.15, Special Situations, provides guidance on which of these areas are permitted to have sprinklers when meeting certain criteria. Arguably one of the most utilized areas of this section is 18.15.1.2 which provides 18 subsections of arrangements for concealed spaces in which sprinklers are not required to be installed. This seminar is part 2 of 2 which will tackle issues involved with omitting sprinklers from these spaces and how to properly protect these spaces when you cannot omit sprinklers.

When is storage not treated as storage? When it meets the definition of miscellaneous or low-piled storage. Typically, the requirements of NFPA 13 for the protection of storage are distinct from the occupancy or hazard class requirements of the standard. Miscellaneous and low-piled storage is the exception. These specific storage arrangements are protected by the rules found in Chapter 13, which typically reference the occupancy rules and not the storage rules within NFPA 13. This program will show how the provisions of this chapter combine with both the occupancy hazard classification rules and the rules for protection of high-piled storage involving commodity classification. It will also focus on these specific storage arrangements and the protection rules found in Chapter 13, Protection of Miscellaneous and Low-Piled Storage. This presentation will discuss situations where the application of the rules found within Chapter 13 are appropriate and what that application entails.

Hydraulic calculations determine the most important aspect of the fire protection system being designed; will the system, as designed and given the available water supply, be able to provide enough water at the required density to successfully control or suppress a fire. Today, most of us use computer-based software programs to aid us in performing these calculations. These capable and powerful programs streamline the hydraulic calculation process by taking our input information and running the calculations for us. As long as the correct information is inputted into the program, an accurate calculation can be produced in a fraction of the time of a manual or “old fashioned” hydraulic calculation. The advent of these calculation programs has been an enormous benefit to the layout technician, but if the technician does not understand the formulas and procedures behind the calculation process, an important skill set can be lost. The knowledge gained by understanding and practicing the manual hydraulic calculation methods will reinforce the basic concepts of hydraulics and the interdependency of the various aspects of the layout. This understanding of the concepts of hydraulic calculations will help the technician to develop the “feel” for the fire sprinkler system that cannot be learned through merely inputting data into a computer.

Many times NFPA model codes borrow or extract text from an installation standard and insert into a model code. Extracted text allows rules to be enforced uniformly in a code from the standard.  Users of NFPA 1 or NFPA 101 will often see extracted text from NFPA 13, NFPA 14 or NFPA 25. A user of NFPA 13 will also notice extracts from other codes and standards. This course will highlight where the NFPA model codes (NFPA 1, NFPA 101, NFPA 5000) extract fire sprinkler installation or maintenance requirements (NFPA 13, NFPA 13R, NFPA 25, etc) and where potential conflicts or differences exist.
