Typically, if you're using a combination standpipe-riser you've got the
hose valves at alternate levels in the mid-point landings between
floors,  the floor control valves for the sprinkler systems are coming
off the same riser at each level where you've got a sprinkler system on
that floor.

Subject: Location of Standpipe and Floor Controls Valves

On jobs where hose valves are required on the alternate landing, where
are you guys placing the floor control valves in relation to the
standpipe? 
For example, do you leave the standpipe on the alternate landing and run
up to the main landing and place the floor controls there?  Do you put
the controls on the alternate landing and run the sprinkler up to the
main landing and into the ceiling?  Do you use separate risers for
standpipes and sprinklers? ...............

Seems to me there's a bunch of different placement options but just
wanted to see what others thought was best.
