- 24. Sprinklers
- 25. Residential Sprinklers Misconception I have seen sprinklers in factories and they are ugly ? Sprinklers are expensive, I can't afford them ? Fire sprinklers cause a lot of water damage ? Smoke sets them off ? They can be damaged ? When a fire breaks out, all the sprinklers go off together ?

- The first thing you will notice, is that the document has been split: Vol 1 Dwelling houses Vol 2 Buildings other than dwelling houses
- Other keys issues within Vol 2 are: fire safety management relating to RRO fire risk assessment The inclusion of residential sprinklers And moe for disabled persons
- The design objectives of the fire engineer is 2……. Post fire investigation – important as we learn a lot from real fire Building type – residential, office etc… Occupancy profile – what risk is present persons who are wide awake or asleep present different risks Fire protection systems – these can be off set against other requirements Assessment of risks – whether these can be reduced or removed Passive fire protection – whether these can be reduced Management strategy – to ensure that the RRO is satisfied this needs addressed
- Using a combination of fire engineering solutions and guidance given within the revision of the adb which has been based on fire engineering principles, I have managed to provide a number of scenarios where effective solutions have been used.
- This first appeared in the revised revision of the BS 5588 Part 5 2004, and has been introduced into the new ADB
- I will go on to explain with the introduction of residential sprinklers into the revised ADB, and what impact these will have.
- Other Changes in the ADB include: Clearer guidance on refuges Emergency voice communication Use of fire fighting lifts Warnings for people with impaired hearing Level exit thresholds Merging Flows Where a ground floor storey exit shares a final stair exit via a ground floor lobby method of calculation provided Phased Evac First people to be evacuated are all those of reduced mobility and those on the storey most immediately affected by the fire In tall buildings over 30m in height there is a potential that persons attempting to escape could be impeded by firefighters entering and operating within the building In some very tall buildings (45m +) physical measures may need to be incorporated into the building (e.g. by discounting a stair or by some other suitable means External Fire Spread A notional boundary is assumed to exist where: a . either or both of the buildings concerned are in the Residential or Assembly and Recreation Purpose Groups; or b . more than one building is constructed on the same site but is to be operated/managed by different organisations Internal Fire Mains Where a building, which has a compartment of 280m2 or more in area, is being built more than 100m from an existing fire-hydrant additional hydrants should be provided as follows; a. Buildings provided with fire mains hydrants should be provided within 90m of dry fire main inlets. b. Buildings not provided with fire mains hydrants should be provided within 90m of an entry point to the building and not more than 90m apart Dry Riser Main In the case of a building fitted with dry fire mains there should be access for a pumping appliance to within 18m of each fire main inlet connection point, typically on the face of the building . The inlet should be visible from the appliance.
