Standpipe System Design and Calculations
By Shawn Mahoney
Standpipe systems consist of piping and hose connections installed throughout a building to provide reliable water for the manual suppression of a fire by either the fire department or trained personnel. NFPA 14, Standard for the Installation of Standpipe and Hose Systems, Chapter 6, outlines design and installation requirements for standpipe and hose systems. Standpipe systems can be broken down into different types of systems to delineate whether the piping is full of water (wet) or not (dry) and whether the water supplied for firefighting is automatically provided by a water supply, such as a city main or a tank and fire pump (automatic or semi-automatic), or needs to be provided by a fire department pumper (manual). When designing a system, you first need to determine the supply pipe size, hose connection location, size, and pressure based on the standpipe classification. There are three classes of standpipe systems, they include Class I, Class II, and Class II.
Class I
Class I systems are installed for use by the fire department and are typically required in buildings that have more than three stories above or below grade because of the time and difficulty involved in laying hose from fire apparatus directly to remote floors. Class I systems are also sometimes required in malls, because these occupancies contain areas that are difficult to access directly with hose from fire apparatus. Locations for hose connections in Class I systems include:
Each main floor landing or intermediate landing of required stairs.
On the roof if the stairwell does not have access to the roof.
Each side of exit openings in horizontal exits.
Exit passageways.
Additional hose connections should be available in unsprinklered buildings where the distance from a hose connection to the most remote part of the floor exceeds the limits in NFPA 14 based on the sprinkler system type and building type.
The minimum residual pressure required for a Class I system is 100 psi (6.9 bar) from the hydraulically most remote 2 ½ in. (65 mm) hose connection with a flow rate of 500 gpm (1893 L/min), through the two most remote 2 ½ in. (65 mm) hose connections. A pressure-regulating device may need to be used in order to limit the pressure at hose connections to less 175 psi (12.1 bar) static (pressure when not flowing).
Class II are installed for use by trained personnel and are often required in large un-sprinklered buildings. They might also be required to protect special hazard areas, such as exhibit halls and stages.
In the past, Class II standpipes were typically installed with a hose, nozzle, and hose rack on each hose connection. Prior to the 2007 edition of NFPA 14, Class II systems were defined as being for use "primarily by the building occupants or by the fire department." Because of concerns regarding the ability of untrained occupants to safely use the hose and the encouragement of occupants to fight the fire rather than evacuate, the Technical Committee chose to define Class II systems as being for use by "trained personnel or by the fire department."
Class II systems need to provide enough hose stations so that all portions of each floor level of the building are within 130 ft (39.7 m) of a 1 ½ in. (40 mm) hose connection provided with 1 1∕ 2 in. (40 mm) hose or within 120 ft (36.6 m) of a hose connection provided with less than 1 1½ ∕ 2 in. (40 mm) hose connection.
The minimum residual pressure required for a Class II system is 65 psi (4.5 bar) from a remote 1 -1/2½ in. (40 mm) hose connection with a minimum flow rate of 100 gpm (379 L/min). A pressure-regulating device may need to be used in order to limit the pressure at these hose connections to less than 100 psi (6.9 bar) residual (pressure when flowing) and 175 psi (12.1 bar) static (pressure when not flowing).
Class III systems combine the features of Class I and Class II systems. They are provided for both full-scale and first-aid firefighting. These systems are generally intended for use by fire departments and fire brigades. Because of their multiple uses, Class III systems are provided with both Class I and Class II hose connections and must meet the placement, pressure, and flow requirements for both Class I and Class II systems.
Pipe sizing
The minimum size pipe for Class I and III standpipes is 4 in. (100 mm). If the standpipe is part of a combined sprinkler system in a partially sprinklered building, that is increased to 6 inches (150 mm). If the building is protected with an automatic sprinkler system, then the minimum combined standpipe size can be 4 in. (100 mm) if hydraulically calculated. The branch lines of the standpipe system are to be sized hydraulically but cannot be smaller than 2 -1/2½ in. (65 mm).
Hydraulically calculating a standpipe system is very similar to that of a sprinkler system because we are calculating the pressure lost in the system to get the required flow to the most remote hose connection. In addition to the required flow from the most remote hose connections, based on the classification we are required to also calculate flow from connections on each standpipe. For example, when calculating a Class 1 Standpipe system in a building that is less than 80,000 ft2 (7432m2) we need to calculate the flow rate of 500 gpm (1893 L/min), through the two most remote 2 ½ in. (65 mm) hose connections at 100 psi (6.9 bar) and also calculate an additional 250 gpm (946 lpm) flowing from each standpipe in the building up to a maximum total flowrate of 1000 gpm (3785 L/min) for buildings that sprinklered throughout, and 1250 gpm (4731 L/min) for buildings that are not sprinklered throughout.

The Mobile Symphony Orchestra is the symphonic orchestra of Mobile, Alabama. Scott Speck is the current music director.

Concerts
The Mobile Symphony Orchestra holds a 7 concert season from September to May of each year. The season consists of 6 traditional classical concerts, and 1 holiday concert. Annual traditions include Beethoven and Blue Jeans in November, and Holiday in December. The orchestra has performed repertoire from all musical styles and periods, and has hosted many world-renowned artists, including Yo-Yo Ma and Renee Fleming.

History
The roots of the Mobile Symphony Orchestra date back to 1970, with the establishment of Symphony Concerts of Mobile. In 1996, the organization's board began planning the development of a full-time professional orchestra to permanently reside in Mobile. In 1997, the name of the company was changed to "Mobile Symphony, Inc," and in 1998 the orchestra held its first concert season. The Symphony's first and current music director, Scott Speck, was named in 2000. In 2002, under the leadership of mayor Michael Dow, the company acquired a building at 257 Dauphin Street in downtown Mobile, which became the Larkins Music Center. The building includes office space, a large recital hall, practice rooms, meeting facilities, and a landscaped courtyard. The building also has a connection to the historic Mobile Saenger Theater, where the Orchestra performs all concerts.

Hatha yoga postures help to harmonize the body with natural law. The yogi is shown how to develop his own latent powers rather than lean weakly on some outer agent for his physical well-being. Inasmuch as ill health is the unnatural, not the natural, condition of the body, primary emphasis in hatha yoga is placed on freeing the body of any impurity that may prevent it from functioning as it should, rather than on introducing outside forces strong enough to destroy all disease.
We offer you many items to enhance your hatha yoga practice: yoga bags, yoga blankets, yoga blocks, yoga bolsters, yoga books, yoga for kids, yoga mats, yoga music, yoga straps and yoga videos.

Chinese firms have invested in natural resources in low- and middle-income countries on a global scale. These include mining operations and large hydropower dams. Often these projects have environmental and social implications.
There are a range of reasons for these investments. Most have been made since the Chinese government issued its Going Out Policy to encourage firms to invest overseas.
China has long-standing political and economic ties with many low- and middle-income countries, particularly in Asia.
China is increasing its investment in Africa, Asia and Latin America through the bundling of aid, trade and investment. It is also exploring other channels such as diplomacy, migration and innovation. China is Africa's largest trading partner.
Energy and minerals is one area of key importance for the Chinese. There is also a growing rise of Chinese foreign direct investment in Africa. But these investments are only a fraction of what other countries invest, particularly European countries.
China offers an alternative to traditional donors and investors in low- and middle-income countries. It does this with its bundling of aid, trade and investment. Also adding to China's appeal is its priority on infrastructure projects and a no-strings-attached approach.
China's no-strings approach also means that firms tend to be willing to invest in projects with questionable social and environmental impacts.
China has also been willing to invest in countries with a poor rule of law. These include Angola, Burundi, the Central African Republic, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Eritrea, Guinea and Zimbabwe. Many Western investors are shying away from these countries.
Examining Chinese-funded and Chinese-built overseas hydropower dams provides some answers about the impact of these developments.
Chinese dam-builders are world-class engineers using very advanced technology. There are a wide range of Chinese firms involved in more than 300 dam projects around the world. Most are in Southeast Asia and Africa.
The large majority of these dams have been built since 2000. This was at a time when many other dam-building nations and organisations, particularly those from the OECD, withdrew from the dam-building industry due to its severe environmental and social impacts.
Sinohydro International, a state-owned enterprise, is leading the global hydropower sector in terms of number and size of dams built, investment sums, and global coverage. Other large players include Three Georges, PowerChina Resources, Gezhouba, Datang, Huadian and Huaneng, in addition to many smaller, regional and less-well-known dam-builders. These hydropower firms are often backed by state-funding, like the China ExIm Bank, ICBC or the China Development Bank.
According to a report by International Rivers, Sinohydro fared best in terms of implementing social and environmental guidelines compared with other Chinese dam builders.
But its policies and guidelines are not yet at the same level as international standards set by other important organisations. These include the World Bank, International Finance Corporation and the International Hydropower Association's Hydropower Sustainability Assessment Protocol.
In our recent research we analysed Sinohydro's social and environmental policies. We found that in 2011 there were plans to adopt eight of 12 policy commitments from the World Bank-related performance standards.
For example, according to the World Bank's policy, dam projects should not occur in a national park, the habitat of threatened species, or in protected wetlands. But after Sinohydro was restructured to streamline its global operations, these World Bank environmental and social guidelines were replaced by weaker internal company policies.
Policy documents released in 2013 and 2014 after the restructuring were closer to a no-strings-attached approach.
In addition, several dams built by Sinohydro in the last ten years have been built in national parks. Examples include the Kamchay Dam in Bokor National Park in Cambodia and the Bui Dam in Bui National Park in Ghana.
Yet Sinohydro is reported to be at the top of its game in terms of environmental and social policies for a Chinese dam builder. It fares better than other Chinese dam builders, including PowerChina Resources. Many Chinese hydropower firms, particularly smaller and lesser-known ones, do not have any comprehensive social and environmental policies in place.
Another interesting aspect of our research was that we found striking differences between the dam governance process in Ghana and Cambodia. The Ghanaian government was more accountable to local affected populations and it was very involved in the project. Cambodia, on the other hand, was less accountable and less participatory.
The findings suggest that Chinese dam builders and financiers tend to follow social and environmental standards and best practice for planning and implementing hydropower dams. But the national government plays a large role too in making sure this happens.
The pressure should therefore not only be on Chinese firms and financiers to minimise the social and environmental impact of large dams, mining operations, and large infrastructure projects. Host governments should be held accountable too. This will prove to be a challenge for many African nations.

Oracle's Net8 technologies are what make Oracle databases more than just repositories of values. They facilitate communication between Oracle servers and their clients, as well as among servers for purposes of synchronization, replication, and load balancing. Oracle Net8 Configuration and Troubleshooting documents the Net8 software in full, explaining to system implementers and administrators what talks to what, and how. The emphasis is on design constraints--for example, the way many operating systems limit the number of simultaneous connections to a single process and so require multiple dispatcher processes. Diagnosis and repair of problems are also explored, and quite a lot of information about console utilities is included.
The Oracle Internet Directory (OID), Oracle's implementation of the standard Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP). This directory can be used to maintain a central repository of net service names that can be referenced by all clients.
Oracle Names, a networking component used mainly in earlier versions of Oracle, that allows net service names to be defined centrally.
Multi-Threaded Server (MTS), an environment in which the client connections share access to a pool of shared server processes.
Oracle Connection Manager, a Net8 component that acts much like a router and provides protocol conversion, connection concentration, and access control.
The book also describes the utilities Oracle provides to help manage a Net8 environment; these include the Listener Control Utility (lsnrctl), the Oracle Names Control Utility (namesctl), the Oracle Connection Manager Control Utility (cmctl), tnsping, and Net8 Assistant. In addition, it provides a variety of networking troubleshooting techniques and commonly encountered Net8 configuration problems, and provides complete syntax for all networking files and commands.
