| 08/06/2010 | MARTIN BROWN | FIRE | REVIEW | Denied | This residence will have a "fire calculation area"(2006 IFC Appendix B, Section B104.1) greater than 3,600 sq. ft.: therefore this house will require a residential sprinkler system unless the fire flow in the nearest hydrant is a minimum of 2500 GPM (2006 IRC Appendix L, as amended and 2006 IFC Appendix B, Table B104.1, assuming type V-B construction). Call David Mann (837-7029) or Martin Brown(837-7030) for fire flow information. Residential or quick response sprinklers shall be used. The sprinkler system may be connected to the domestic water supply, provided the required design density can be met. Be advised that Tucson Water will not allow a residential sprinkler system to be supplied by a 5/8" meter. A 1" meter will be required by Tucson Water. Residential fire sprinkler system shall be installed in accordance with the 2006 IFC and NFPA 13D. |
