The 24 hour air test passed on all three dry systems. The trip tests passed on dry system #2 and #3 but failed on system #1. Additional pendants are needed as discussed in the pockets separating the existing gym from the new locker rooms and the missing uprights on system #1 are needed. Per Scott system #1 does not need to be rehydro tested or 24 hour tested.

Inspected system 2 piping in the attic for the protection of the ground floor. Everything seemed ok except for the hanger situation which was added as a separate activity in the case file.

Inspected system 3 for proper sprinkler coverage. Most of the system was ok. Some areas were not complete and marked in red indicated by NR (Not Reviewed) on the job site plans.

Inspected the new addition for cover. All seemed ok except for the door ways leading into the new area. There were doors leading into this area that blocked coverage from the sidewall sprinklers in the gym for the doorways. I was informed that the doors were to be removed. If the doors are not removed than additional sprinklers will be required in both doorways.

Discussed various hangers options with Trent of Phoenix Fire Protection. Trent indicated that a professional engineer was reviewing the hangers as they are installed. I told him if the engineer was to approved the installation than it would be ok with us, since chapter 9 of NFPA 13 allows for engineering analysis. In addition, I discussed with him installing more hangers on the 4" main in order to limit the point load for each hanger. The other option was to add additional wood below the hangers. I told him the final decision for using additional hangers would rest with the primary inspector Mr. Troy Cobbley or the PDS/Fire Manger Mr. Scott Arellano. However, it sounded like a pracitical solution in my opinion.

Todays inspection was a rough-to-cover inspection for system 2 (attic). After arriving at the project I found that the latest city approved plans were not on site for the inspection. Instead of leaving I stayed at the fitters request to inspect the dry pendant spacing below the ceilings. Half of the the classrooms were locked. The classrooms that were open had missing pendant heads and the plastic shipping clips had not been removed from many of the pendants. So I stopped with the below ceiling inspecion. At this time plans arrived and I started the attic inspection. As with the previous inspection upright coverage is missing at overbuild areas, heads are spaced too far off of smoke curtains and shear walls, heads are spaced too close together. Also the hangers do not meet the minimum distance from the bottom of the structural members as required for branchlines and mains per NFPA 13 chapter 9. Also per chapter 9 the minimum member size to hang 4" piping is 4 x 3. 2 x4 are being used. I also noted that the sprinkler piping does not match the plans near the riser.
