2013 NFPA 13: Water Supply Analysis and Hydraulic Calculations 2-Day Seminar

Learn by doing with activity-based training on how to complete a water supply analysis and accurately calculate sprinkler system hydraulics.

Updated to the 2013 edition of NFPA 13: Installation of Sprinkler Systems, this intensive seminar addresses how to determine occupancy classification and complete sprinkler discharge calculations, including selection of the sprinkler K factor. Features influencing friction loss will be considered, along with water supply and system demand. You will also have the opportunity to perform sample branchline and whole systems calculations. A scientific calculator is required.

Upon completion you should be able to:

• Manually calculate a simple sprinkler system
• Select appropriate K-factor
• Plot water supply and system demand point
• Select density and area of operation
• Determine size, shape and location of remote area
• Analyze sprinkler spacing
• Apply C-value to system piping
• Calculate friction loss through pipe
• Assess standpipe system calculations
• Determine commodity classifications
• Evaluate calculations for rack sprinklers
