1.4.1.4
As-Built Drawings for the Fire Extinguishing System
Upon completion, and before final acceptance of the work, submit a complete
set of as-built drawings [, including complete as-built circuit diagrams,]
of each system. Submit A1 841 x 594 mm 34 by 22 inch reproducible as-built
drawings on mylar film with 200 by 100 mm 8 by 4 inch title block similar
to contract drawings. Submit as-built drawings in addition to the record
drawings required by Division 1.
1.4.2
System Operation
Flow of water and AFFF shall be controlled by [pre-action] [dry-pipe]
[deluge] valves. Foam proportioning equipment shall activate automatically
upon tripping of the [pre-action] [dry pipe] [deluge] valve(s) for the
corresponding foam system(s). [[Pre-action] [Deluge] valves shall be
tripped by independent detection systems.] No valve will be operated by
the building fire evacuation alarm system. Use of motor-operated valves is
prohibited. Once activated, system(s) shall operate until shut down
manually. Provide separate circuits from the control panel to each zone of
initiating devices. Transmission of signals from more than one zone over a
common circuit is prohibited.
1.4.2.1
Overhead [and In-Rack] Systems
Overhead [and in-rack] systems shall be controlled by [[pre-action]
[deluge] valves operated by automatic detection systems and by remote
manual release stations] [dry pipe valves tripped by loss of air pressure
in the system piping].
[1.4.2.2
Monitor System
**************************************************************************
NOTE: Specify monitor systems for unroofed truck or
rail car loading/unloading facilities.
**************************************************************************
Monitor nozzles shall be controlled by deluge valves operated by [automatic
ultraviolet-infrared (UV-IR) optical detection systems] [and] [manual
release stations].
]1.4.2.3
Hose System
Hose reels shall be controlled by deluge valves operated by remote manual
release stations, separate from those used for overhead systems [and
monitor nozzles].

SUBMITTALS
**************************************************************************
NOTE: Submittals must be limited to those necessary
for adequate quality control. The importance of an
item in the project should be one of the primary
factors in determining if a submittal for the item
should be required.
A "G" following a submittal item indicates that the
submittal requires Government approval. Some
submittals are already marked with a "G". Only
delete an existing "G" if the submittal item is not
