Fire Protection :

The life safety operations of the building in particular sprinkler systems are all hardwired to the emergency control panel of the building. The sprinkler piping main line comes into the north side of the building and connects to the sprinkler system in the sprinkler room. The sprinkler pipes are then distributed to each floor level where the main piping is branched off into smaller circuits for diffusion. The sprinkler heads used for fire protection are dry type sprinkler heads. This system is also powered and controlled by the fire alarm panel.
