and Division -1, “General requirements”, apply to work of this section.

1.02 RELATED DOCUMENTS

A. Drawings and general provisions of contract, including General and special conditions

section.

1.03 DESCRIPTION OF WORK

A. Work includes: Providing all labor, material, equipment and service necessary to
complete and make ready for operation by the owner.

B. Foam water sprinkler system shall be provided for generator and fuel tank rooms.

C. The system is of the ' deluge' variety in that it consists of an array of open head
discharge nozzles that provide an even distribution of fished foam over the risk once
the system is initiated. the term 'foam/water sprinkler' defines the nozzle as one which
produces the same pattern of expanded (low expansion) foam when supplied with
foam solution as that which it produces with water. This pattern is similar to that
produced by a standard sprinkler head.

D. The foam/water sprinkler system consists of a pipe work array connected to a source
of foam solution and is equipped with a number of foam/water sprinklers for
distributing the low expansion foam over the area that is to be protected. Actuation of
the system is usually achieved by a separate detection system, triggering the operation
of the system deluge valve.

1.04 FOAM/WATER SPRINKLER SYSTEM DESIGN

A. The basic design rules, as laid down in NFPA 16, are relatively straightforward,
however, in common with other spray and sprinkler systems, detailed hydraulic
calculations may be needed to establish a satisfactory discharge arrangement. The
basic design rules can be summarized as:

1. The minimum foam solution application rate is 6.5 liters/m2/min.

2. There should be sufficient foam to run the system on foam solution for minimum
of 10 minutes.

RUA AL MADINAH PROJECT INFRASTRUCTURE DESIGN WSP

Project No. 55001860 July 2021
