FIRE DEPARTMENT COMMENTS

RESPONSE TO COMMENTS > GOF22001
General Comments:
1. The Fire Department Connection for the sprinkler system must be within 100 feet of a fire hydrant, and within
50 feet of fire department fire lanes on the property. (FDC location not indicated on the plans) Add FDC location,
wall mount or remote connection to meet the distance requirements or add a fire hydrant.
McAdams Response: We have added an FDC near the new entrance on the southeast corner of the site.
Fire Lane Comments:
1. Fire lanes require a minimum 30 foot inside turn radius and a minimum 54 foot outside turn radius. (Turn radii
not indicated on plans)
McAdams Response: Fire lane radius labels have been provided.
2. Fire apparatus access needs to be an all-weather surface, asphalt or concrete, 24 feet wide and able to support
the imposed loads of fire apparatus. (Minimum of 85,000 pounds GVW) Concrete fire lanes shall be a minim 5"
thick, 3,600 psi 5.5 sack concrete reinforced with #4 rebar @ 18" O.C. (plans indicate #3 rebar)
McAdams Response: We revised the paving legend.
Fire Hvdrant Comments:
1. Fire hydrants are required at a maximum spacing of 300 feet for commercial locations that have both un-
sprinklered and sprinklered buildings. (Plans indicate only one fire hydrant, which does not meet the distance
requirements)
McAdams Response: There is another fire hydrant south of E. Highland St. east of the existing building and
is now being indicated on the plans to show buildings are within 300-feet of a fire hydrant.
Consideration of this response is greatly appreciated. If you should have any questions or require additional
