The document provides guidance on selecting and designing a sprinkler system for a warehouse building. It discusses:
1) Classifying the warehouse as an ordinary hazard occupancy since non-flammable materials are stored.
2) Computing the number of sprinkler heads needed based on the warehouse dimensions and code requiring each head to protect no more than 100 sq ft.
3) Sketching the sprinkler layout with branch pipes spaced 10 ft apart and 5 ft from walls, and sizing the main and branch pipes based on the number of sprinklers served.

Fire hydrant installation consists of a system of pipe work connected directly to the water supply main to provide water to each and every hydrant outlet and is intended to provide water for the firemen to fight a fire. The water is discharged into the fire engine form which it is then pumped and sprayed over fire. Where the water supply is not reliable or inadequate, hydrant pumps should be provided to pressurize the fire mains.

Design of Fire Systems in Nanjing Research Institute of Huawei’s New Rent Eng...IJRES Journal
First, building fire research status at home and abroad are introduced, the main subject of
the design of fire system in Nanjing research institute of Huawei’s new rent engineering office building. The
construction for the building is eight floors and the area of it is about 42537
2 m , the underground part is
about 1713
2 m . Its height is about 30 m . According to actual demand, with the fire regulations and
specific engineering requirements, we ensure safety by comparing with regulations and drawing
the conclusion. In the design, we check the pipeline strength of water. In the fire hydrant system, the pressure
of the most unfavorable hydrant should be calculated and check.
Design of Sprinkler System and CO2 Total Flooding System of Given Plan I Gaur...Gaurav Singh Rajput
This project includes two parts
1. Sprinkler System Design
2. CO2 Total Flooding System Design
In sprinkler system design first given plan were studied and its area divided on the basic of hazardous classification of building as per NBC Part- 4 and number of sprinklers required in area were calculated. Then pressure and flow rate of water at externa inlet valve were calculated. Number of hangers, range pipe and distribution pipes were calculated.
In CO2 Total Flooding System Design number of co2 cylinder required for the given compartment for total flooding system were calculated.

1. SPRINKLER-SYSTEM SELECTION AND DESIGN
Reference: Handbook of Mechanical Engineering Calculations by Tyler G. Hicks
Select and design a sprinkler system for the warehouse building shown. The materials stored in this warehouse are not flammable. The
warehouse is built of fire-resistive materials.
1. Determine the type of occupancy of the building
The classification of occupancy used by the National Board of Fire Underwriters (NBFU) are:
(1) Light hazard, such as apartment houses, asylums, clubhouses, colleges, dormitories, hospitals, hotels, museums, office buildings,
and schools.
(2) Ordinary hazard, such as mercantile buildings, warehouses, manufacturing plants and occupancies not classed as light or extra
hazardous
(3) Extra hazard, such as those buildings or portions of buildings where the inspection agency having jurisdiction determines that the
hazard is severe.
For this warehouse, since it is used to store nonflammable materials, it can be tentatively classed as ordinary hazard occupancy.
2. Compute the number of sprinkler head required
Consult local fire-prevention code and the fire underwriters regarding the type, size, and materials required for sprinkler systems.
Typical codes recommend that each sprinkler head in an ordinary fire-resistive building protect not more than 100 ft2 and that the sprinkler
branch pipe, and the sprinklers themselves, be not more than 12 ft apart, center to center.
(90 ft)(60 ft)
No. of sprinklers = = 54 heads
100ft 2
3. Sketch the sprinkler layout
If the warehouse has a centrally located support column or piping cluster, a center central feed pipe can be used.
Assume the sprinkler pipes are spaced 10 ft centers. Space the end sprinkler heads and branch pipes away from the walls by an amount
10 ft
equal to one-half the center-to-center distance between branch pipes. Thus the end sprinkler heads and branch pipes will be = 5 ft
2
from the walls.
4. Size the branch and main sprinkler pipes
Use Table below for Pipe-Size Schedule for Typical Sprinkler Installations
2. Table above shows that 1 ¼-in (32-mm) branch line will be suitable for three sprinklers in ordinary-hazard occupancy such as this warehouse.
Hence, each branch line having three sprinklers will be this size.
The horizontal overhead main supplying the branches will progressively decrease in diameter as it runs farther from the vertical center central
feed and serves fewer sprinklers.
To the right of the vertical feed, the horizontal main serves 30 sprinklers. Table above shows that a 3-in (76-mm) pipe can serve up to 40
sprinklers. Hence, this size will be used because the next smaller size, 2 ½-in (64-mm) can only serve 20 sprinklers.
Since the first branch has six sprinklers, a 3-in (76-mm) pipe is still needed for the main because Table above shows that a 2 ½-in (64-mm)
pipe can serve only 20 sprinklers, or fewer, sprinklers. However, beyond the second branch, the diameter of the horizontal main can be
reduced to 2 ½-in (64-mm) because the number of sprinklers served is 30 – 12 = 18. Beyond the fourth branch, the main size can be
reduced to 2-in (51-mm) because only six sprinklers are served.
Size the left-hand horizontal main in the same way.
The vertical center central feed pipe serves 54 sprinklers. Hence, a 3 ½-in (89-mm) pipe must be used, according to Table shown above.
5. Choose the primary and secondary water supply
Usual codes require that each sprinkler system have two water supplies. The primary supply should be automatic and must have sufficient
capacity and pressure to serve the system. Local codes usually specify the minimum pressure and capacity acceptable for sprinklers serving
various occupancies.
The secondary supply is often a motor-driven, automatically controlled fire pump supplied from a water main or taking its suction under
pressure from a storage system having sufficient capacity to meet the water requirements of the structure protected.
(1) Light hazard,
Pump should have a capacity of at least 250 gpm
When pump supplies both sprinklers and hydrants, the capacity should be at least 500 gpm
(2) Ordinary hazard,
Pump should have a capacity of at least 500 gpm
When pump supplies both sprinklers and hydrants, the capacity should be at least 750 gpm
(3) Extra hazard,
Consult local fire-protection authorities.
NOTES:
For fire-resistive construction and light-hazard occupancy, the area protected by each sprinkler should not exceed 196 ft2 and the
center-to-center distance of the sprinkler pipes and sprinkler themselves should not exceed 14 ft.
For extra-hazard occupancy, the area protected by each sprinkler should not exceed 90 ft2; the distance between pipes and between
sprinklers should not be more than 10 ft.
For protection of structures against exposure to fires, outside sprinklers may be used. They can be arranged to protect cornices,
windows, side walls, ridge poles, mansard roofs, etc.
Four common types of automatic sprinklers:
a. Wet pipe
b. Dry pipe
c. Preaction
3. d. Deluge
The type of systems depends on a number of factors, including occupancy classification, local code requirements and the
requirements of fire protection authorities.
Do not finalize a sprinkler design until after it is approved by local fire authority.
