[Sprinklerforum] Re: FDC for Standpipe

[Ken Wagoner]

Brian,

Yes, I have been required to provide such a connection in the past.  It has been rare, and it was a gorilla sized high rise building.

For me arguing with the AHJ over this seemed pointless.

sincerely,

Anybody ever had an AHJ required a 4-way FDC with (4) Storz connections to feed a standpipe? I get the (1) 2-1/2” connection per 250 gpm but you’re also allowed a “large diameter” hose connection. In this case the current FDC is a 5” Storz on 6” underground.

 

Thank you,
