This course focuses on the seismic protection requirements for fire sprinkler systems based on NFPA 13 ‘Standard for the Installation of Sprinkler Systems’. The presentation will cover seismic bracing requirements and the calculation of seismic forces present in the Zone of Influence (ZOI). The presenter will also discuss the various considerations in determining the components in the brace assembly and proper layout to distribute the seismic loads throughout the system.
Learning Objectives:
•Identify when and where seismic bracing/restraint is required
•Explain how to calculate forces Seismic Bracing must withstand
•Learn component selection of seismic brace assembly
•Understand how to properly locate seismic braces on the piping system
