The Georgia Fire Sprinkler will be hosting another training seminar in October hosted by Mr. Ray Vance. This seminar will focus on the updates for The NFPA-14- Standard, and more specifically- Standpipes.

This seminar will cover the building & fire code requirements for standpipe, including when they are required, where they are required, how they are to be protected, etc.  Covering the locations where additional hose connections are required to be provided, including locations around horizontal exits, public access to shopping malls, roof manifolds, etc. The seminar will also explain and demonstrate how to properly layout and perform hydraulic calculations for different types and classes of standpipes, including starting flows and pressures at the hose connections.  It will also cover the pressure considerations required in high-rise buildings and multiple vertical zone standpipe arrangements, including water supplies and fire pump arrangements.
