Is anyone using Tyco's Fluid Time Delivery software? How does is check with
actual trip times?

Dewayne,
We use stud grommets on each stud that our pipe crosses. Not sure where we get
them but they are out there. If you don't find them easy shoot me an email off
forum and I will ask the purchasing guys where they get them.

Had to deal with this recently.
Copper B-line has a Grommet (BM1) I think Erico had one too. Copper B-line also
has a Tape product for edges B-1999 ( if I remember correctly).

I've used Erico ESGFP (Easy Snap Grommet for Fire Protection) in the past. Not
sure how large you are trying to go, but they work for 1" CPVC

Do I need some type of pipe protection when running CPVC pipe through steel
studs? I thought about stud grommets but I can’t find any large enough.
Thanks,
Dewayne

Have you checked into the thread itself? My old memory recalls the taper and
threads per inch. On 1" pipe you have 2 7/8 threads left.
AFSA course has good best practices.

I have an interesting and challenging situation:
My firm is overseeing remediation of rampant leaks on all floors of the
sprinkler systems in a 6-story building. Our first suspect was a really bad
MIC infection, but that's not it. What we think we have is situation where the
threads were not
The proper way to determine a correct joint make up is with a ring gauge to
test the thread depth and taper. If the threads are made properly, then the "2
to 3 threads showing at make-up" standard is bullet proof. If the ring gauge
indicates the threads are deep or shallow, a "tight " joint
Yes, the metallurgist will be doing in depth analysis of the threads, but there
are long-standing good practices and standards for threads.

Used it many years ago. It is very accurate. We got within a second between
calculated and measured times.
It only works for trees and not loops. Or at least that used to be the
limitation.
I hated the program input. It was very tedious.

Used it on all dry system designs in a previous life (job). The trip times
through a single test connection were typically longer. Keeping in mind that
all the systems I've used the calcs for were ordinary or extra hazard systems
which calculate two (OH) or four (EH) open heads.
Cheers
We have had good look with it as well. Even better when the piping installed up
to the Inspector's Test Valve is run the same size as the branch line.
