Introduction to Standpipe Systems
Abstract Standpipe systems are vital to the fire protection of a building. They assist firefighters in getting water to a fire quickly, efficiently, and with sufficient flow and pressure to protect lives, property and the environment. The proper design, installation, inspection, testing and maintenance of standpipe systems is discussed in detail. Chapters cover every aspect of design including piping selection, hanging and bracing, and sizing water supplies. Since fire pumps are also integral to the proper operation of many standpipe systems, there is a significant amount of information on sizing and using fire pumps. Also, since the use of manual standpipe systems in low-rise buildings with fire sprinkler systems is popular, the design of such systems, without fire pumps, is discussed in detail.
