Ken:

Doesn't PA switch over to ICC on Oct 1, 2010? UCC plan review would no
longer apply.

Pa members of the forum:

The UCC plan review checklist requires a sprinkler design data sheet to be
included on the first plan of the sprinkler drawings.

Jack,


The hydraulic summary sheet from the calcs has always sufficed for our
submittals. This, of course, combined with the required NFPA 13 list of what
should be on the drawings. I have asked several AHJs about this and they
have no idea what it is either. 

If you happen to come across oneplease shoot me a copy.

The UCC checklist in question also lists a 10 psi safety factor on all
hydraulic calculations. I've asked AHJs to show me where in the Uniform
Construction Code and the NFPA standards that this is a requirement. No one
has given me an answer yet. I only know of one jurisdiction around the
Harrisburg area that has a legally adopted amendment.

Two things could apply here. See chapter 24. See figure A.24.6 Sprinkler
system- general information and the Hydraulic Design information sign. There
is also a occupancy inforamtion sheet that I could not find quickly. These
describe what the owner intends for the building use and occupancy.

The UCC plan review checklist requires a sprinkler design data sheet to be
included on the first plan of the sprinkler drawings.  Is there a form
somewhere which show the specific information they are looking for or is
this just the hydraulic summary sheet from NFPA 13?
