This webinar expands on the Fire Sprinkler Design Approaches courses. This presentation focuses on the application of the selected design area and permitted calculation approaches to determine number of sprinklers based on ‘NFPA 13 Standard for the Installation of Sprinkler Systems’. Specific emphasis will be given to Chapter 19 and Chapter 27 in determining the size, shape, and number of sprinklers to include in the specific design area. The presentation also considers the location of the design area within the overall system and how to determine the most hydraulically demanding remote location.
Learning Objectives:
•Understand how to determine the specific number of sprinklers that must be included in the sprinkler operating area.
•Apply the rules of NFPA 13 for determining the number of sprinklers to include along the branch line and associated impact on the design area shape.
•Explain the impact enclosing walls can have on the number of sprinklers required in the hydraulic calculations.
•Locate and apply the specific rules for special design areas for the most efficient design.
•Identify and select the most hydraulically remote location for calculation.
