Yeah, figures - Agricultural Facilities is first on the list and I missed it. I did see 'Tobacco products manufacturing' in there as well which was tipping me back towards ord group II but I think between that and the Ag Facilities there is no question that this needs to have at a minimum an...
I'm having a problem finding guidance on the proper density for a med marijuana facility which is an F-1 occupancy. The existing system is an ancient ordinary hazard pipe scheduled system and as such the limits of the schedule won't allow any additions without major revamping. We've opted to...
It sounds like the 3X rule would apply. Standard 2X4 framing being about 3.5" would mean you would have to be 10.5" from the face of the exposed studs. 8.6.5.2.2 could possibly apply as well.
Also maintain 6 ft min. between heads as previously noted.
Hi Guys,
When project have pre-engineered fire sprinkler drawings it has been common practice for companies that I have worked for to simply cut and paste these drawings on the company's own title block and submit them together with the hydraulic calcs to get a permit. Obviously the PE's seal...
Tyco has one and I was contemplating using it for a 13R today but in the end concluded the patios were "outside the dwelling unit" and figured I should use regular quick response, dry hsw. I was scratching my head as to when you could use the residential ones...
When I tested it was the old way of pencil and paper and they had forms to fill out when you tested if you chose to dispute the way something was worded or whatever. If I recall correctly you just fill out the form and you make your case. As far as appealing a score I'm not sure how you would do...
A pipe hanger is for hanging pipe not for wrapping around structural members. You can point out that the pipe hanger is round for a reason - it's not just coincidence that the pipe also has a round profile. Compare that to the square profile of a joist.
I agree with chicopee.
If you had a backflow preventor in a pit at the same location as your PIV then it would become obvious that it's a little backwards. The FDC is usually after a BFP. Look at nfpa 24: 5.9.3.2 as referenced by chicopee then look at the definition of a 'fire service line' in...
Can elbows be located in any orientation and any location when it comes to vertical inline pumps? All the requirements in '20 for restrictions on the orientations of elbows seem to only be applicable to horizontal splitcase.
Thx,
No diagrams but just picture your deflector 5" above a lot of 12" ductwork trunks. Would the suspended obstruction rule be the applicable code at that point?
