QUESTION ONE:
In both north end and first floor, two types of the sprinklers may be used which are the wet sprinkler and the system of pre-action sprinkler. The pre-action sprinklers are often more advantageous compared to the wet sprinklers.
The pre action sprinklers operate like the network of storm sprinklers but the only difference is the fact that the sprinklers are shut. This framework is commonly in ranges involving supplies or substances of heightened quality that are delicate. The pre action sprinklers are shut to reduce the impact of pressure on the delicate items.
The wet funnel sprinklers use the programmed sprinkler heads joined to the funneling framework connected to the water supply in order to release water quickly .The hotness of the blaze is the regulating force for the sprinkler to release water from the nozzles.
These two frameworks are the most used because they have quick response to the fire outbreaks in this setup of building. This therefore the most regularly utilized in fire outbreaks.
QUESTION TWO:
The sprinkler is inadequate because the area of raw materials has little coverage in terms of the water patterns due to the height of the location of these raw materials that is 16 feet high.
QUESTION3
Deluge Sprinkler
This framework involves downpour from an open sprinkler connected to the channeling framework associated with water supply through valves, which releases water to the same regions like the water sprinklers. When the valve opens, water is released from the sprinklers attached to it.
The downpour framework is there fore suitable in the situations where large coverage of water is of essence and the downpour by electric power.
QUESTION FOUR:
The office rooms contain delicate items like computers and other electronic devices that are affected by water. Deluge sprinkler is the most suitable for this case because a lot of water is needed to ensure that the fire is put off as soon as possible. This system use electric power that enables faster sprinkle of water to the rooms.
QUESTION FIVE:
The utilization of pre activation sprinkler can perform this task in the best suitable manner because the items like computers are prone to destruction by water. This sprinkler system operates depending on the changes in temperature where the sprinkler operates. These therefore secure the valuables from burning.
QUESTION SIX
The dry pipe sprinkler operates on various special principles. It involves the use of quickening agents that enhance acceleration of water. This dry sprinkler involves a delay in spread of water between the nozzles and the blaze.
The quickening agents enhance the speed at which the nozzles open in order to release water faster and at high speed. This dry sprinkler generally contributes to speed in putting off the fire. The quickening agents operate mechanically by sensing the drop in force of the water.
QUESTION SEVEN
Recessed sprinkler heads
These heads are located above the ceiling of the house due to lack of deflators or houses that have recessed ceilings. They involve the use of escutcheon that attaches the cup in order to close the opening located at the head.
Standard sprinkler head
This sprinkler develops the pattern of water distribution that depends on the response time of the sprinkler heads when exposed to heat.
Flush sprinkler head
This is attached to the ceiling to the extent that only a part of it is visible to the heat or the outer conditions and elements. When activated, the deflator drops below the ceiling in order to achieve the distribution pattern of the water. They are not obstructive in nature therefore commonly used for aesthetic purposes.
Attic sprinkler head
This provides protection to the attic spaces by production of discharge patterns that covers a large scope than the standard sprinkler heads. One attic sprinkler head can serve the purpose of many standard sprinklers.
Concealed sprinkler head
This serves the purpose of protecting the areas like interstitial spaces made of combustible materials. It has a deflator that enables formation of patterns when hit by water.
QUESTION EIGHT
Non-interlock sprinkler systems involve the use of a dry pipe valve as well as the supplemental electric or pneumatic distinguishing proof skeleton. The valves open through operations of the sprinkler.
A single interlock system operates with under the same principle like the dry channel sprinkler system. It uses a downpour valve a swell as the supervisory pneumatic stress framework.
Double interlock pre action sprinkler pipes involve the use of the programmed water control valve a s the pneumatic discovery framework. In a two -fold interlock framework two main things must occur which includes fire recognition from a smoke identifier as well as automatic sprinkler operation.
QUESTION NINE
The wet channel framework is most applicable in areas where there are no chances of solidifying while the dry channel sprinkler system is used.
