distances to the stair, and the occupancy of each area. Show fireproofing of structural
members where applicable. Submit exit calculations for each floor, which justify the
number of exits provided.
c. Survey the impact of the seismic correction on existing fire alarm system. Determine
changes for type, features, age, reliability, compliance with present day codes, capacity,
zoning, supervision, control panel and power supplies, initiating devices and circuits, and
auxiliary functions for existing fire alarm system. Indicate manufacturer, model number,
voltage, and wiring style of existing alarm systems and devices. Provide recommendations
for the modification required for proposed fire alarm work.
d. Provide narrative for building construction, building fire and smoke separation, fire
sprinkler/standpipe systems, size of fire pumps (if required), water supply
available/maximum demand, water flow testing results, fire alarm systems, and kitchen
extinguishing systems. Include calculations where required. Indicate NFPA 220 and UBC
fire resistive rating of the building, NFPA 101 occupancy type, and fire protection code
analysis to access compliance with NFPA 101.
9. HEATING, VENTILATING & AIR CONDITIONING
a. Provide a description of the modification required for heating, ventilating, and air
conditioning (HVAC) systems and equipment for each functional space.
b. Provide complete life cycle cost analysis with specific recommendations and full back-up
data for necessary major system upgrades. State the heating and cooling capacities of
each functional area used in the life cycle cost analysis. State the block cooling and
heating loads for each new and/or existing building.
c. Indicate tentative locations and sizes of required new mechanical equipment rooms and
principal vertical shafts. Show a block layout of major pieces of equipment in each
mechanical equipment room. For new or significantly changed outside air, show exhaust
air, and relief air louvers. Resolve various items affecting louver location, considering other
factors such as visibility, historical considerations, wind direction, nuisance and health
hazard odors caused by short circuiting of air from exhaust from emergency generators and
truck waiting areas, etc. to intake.
