Learning Outcomes

This unit of competency specifies the outcomes required to obtain, process and set up drawings for the detailed design of fire sprinkler systems. The unit also involves assessing and selecting component requirements, setting out the locations of components, and creating final notated drawings. This unit of competency supports the role of fire systems designers with responsibility for creating detailed designs for sprinkler fire suppression systems. Licensing, legislative, regulatory or certification requirements may apply to this unit and so the varying state or territory requirements should be confirmed with the relevant body.

Elements & Learning Outcomes

E1Set up fire systems design drawings.

0564.E1.O1Request, receive, name and file relevant project drawings and documentation according to workplace procedures.

0564.E1.O2Clean drawings to leave minimal essential information.

0564.E1.O3Import layers showing designs of other services into clean architectural or structural drawings.

0564.E1.O4Add details from drawings of the floor of the level above, if these affect the design.

0564.E1.O5Name, file and back up the detailed design drawings according to workplace procedures.

E2Calculate preliminary data.

0564.E2.O1Develop floor area calculations to determine the number of sprinkler zones.

0564.E2.O2Determine the sprinkler occupancy classifications, minimum sprinkler flow and initial fire flow demands based on classifications for the site.

0564.E2.O3Determine and analyse the town main water capabilities for the fire services serving the site to identify if fire pumps and fire tanks are required.

0564.E2.O4Calculate the proposed fire pump flow and pressure and fire tank sizes.

0564.E2.O5Prepare a comparison list of equipment which can be used across the site.

E3Lay out the fire sprinkler system design.

0564.E3.O1Determine and notate the exact location of sprinklers on the drawing according to relevant codes and standards.

0564.E3.O2Determine and notate the most efficient and workable layout and location of sprinkler system components on the drawing according to regulatory requirements, standards and regulations.

0564.E3.O3Design pipework layout and coordinate with building elements and services and identify pipework sizes and elevations across the systems.
