Automatic sprinkler design
Automatic sprinkler design involves planning a fire protection system that uses networks of pipes and sprinkler heads to automatically release water when a fire detection device senses heat. Designers consider building size, layout, occupancy, and fire hazards to determine the number, placement, and flow rate of sprinkler heads. The goal is to ensure rapid and effective coverage, minimizing fire spread and damage. The system is carefully engineered to maintain water pressure and flow, complying with safety standards, so it activates reliably when needed, providing life safety and property protection without manual intervention.
