Intent | Intent 1: To limit the probability that a fire will negatively affect
the sprinkler piping, which could lead to the failure of the piping, which
could lead to the fire not being suppressed or controlled, which could lead
to the spread of fire to other parts of the building, which could lead to
damage to the building. Intent 2: To limit the probability that the water supply to the dry
sprinkler piping will be delayed in a fire situation, which could lead to
the failure of the piping, which could lead to the fire not being suppressed
or controlled, which could lead to the spread of fire to other parts of the
building, which could lead to damage to the building. |
