Water-Supply Evaluations

Description:

An article about the ISO calculation on water supply. ISO calculates the needed fire flow for an individual building based on the building's area, construction, occupancy, and exposure. To get full credit, the water supply must be able to deliver water, at 20 psi residual pressure and at the specified rate of flow, for a specified period of time. Needed fire flows for individual buildings range from a minimum of 500 gpm to a maximum of 12,000 gpm.
