standpipe question
standpipe question
(OP)
in NFPA 14...7.4 Number of Standpipes. Separate standpipes shall be provided in each required exit stairway.
what does this mean?
shall I have standpipe riser as the required exit stairway. I mean if I have 6 exit, shall I have 6 standpipe risers, or six valve connections that supplied from one riser?

RE: standpipe question
You can have six valve connections on a single riser, if you are serving six floor levels.
RE: standpipe question
My experiences is the similar to PEDARRIN2, in that if it is a required stairwell for egress it needs a standpipe. You may also need to extend to the roof if a hose valve is required there.
