Hanging, Bracing and Protection of System Piping,port of pipe protects the pipe against gravitational forces. The bracing rules actually encompass everything necessary to protect the pipe against damage during earthquakes. The rest of the protection concerns deal with a variety of potentially destructive forces like mechanical damage, fire and freezing.

SMART

Acceptance Testing of Standpipes,-term pass/fail criteria can be established for the periodic testing and maintenance that will be done on the system in the future. The testing for the underground system needs to be done before the aboveground piping is connected to the underground so that dirt and debris are not transferred into the aboveground piping.

Hydraulic Calculation of Standpipe Systems,t there will be a water supply that can provide a sufficient flow of water at a sufficient pressure for a sufficient period of time. This water supply could be a fixed supply dedicated to the standpipe system, or it could be a portable supply brought by the fire department. The calculations necessar

Combined Sprinkler/Standpipe Systems,or the installation and hydraulic calculation of the standpipe system depend on whether the building is sprinklered or not. But the combination of the two systems using some of the same piping has not yet been discussed. This chapter will delve into the rules of NFPA 13 and NFPA 14 regarding the com
