This book was released on 2017-11-19 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Benefit-Cost Model of Residential Fire Sprinkler Systems Costs and benefits of owning a system are estimated for selected hypothetical cases pertaining to a new, single-family dwelling in the United States. The estimates are then used to illustrate the model. Minimum or maximum values that key decision variables must take in order for sprinkler systems to be cost effective in the selected applications are calculated through break-even analysis. Related models are developed for evaluating the economic merits of sprinkler systems from the standpoint of developers and local governments. Implications for the research and building communities are discussed. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Home Fire Sprinkler Cost Assessment written by Newport Partners LLC and published by Springer. This book was released on 2014-07-23 with total page 48 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This SpringerBrief reviews current home fire sprinkler system costs in one- and two-family dwellings, mobile homes, and multifamily residential buildings up to four stories. It provides individual community data and qualitative data gained through interviews with community officials, builders, and fire sprinkler contractors. The systems are reviewed against a 2008 benchmark study in order to analyze how the increasingly widespread adoption of national sprinkler ordinances impacts system cost. Using 51 homes in 17 communities, the authors discuss the impact of sprinkler ordinances on home fire sprinkler system cost, including extent of coverage, system types, water sources, permit and inspection fees, and statewide requirements. Methods and community comparisons are presented with the analysis. Home Fire Sprinkler Assessment is intended for practitioners working with sprinkler codes and building regulation safety. Researchers working in a related field will also find the book valuable.

Download or read book Analysis of Costs and Benefits of Installing Fire Sprinklers in Houses Phase 1 Selecting an Appropriate Assessment Procedure written by A.T. Hansen Consulting Services and published by The Corporation. This book was released on 1988 with total page 22 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The primary objective of this project is to provide cost-benefit information for committees currently reviewing the merits of mandatory sprinkler systems in building codes. A library search and interviews with IRC/NRC fire safety experts confirmed that the most comprehensive cost-benefit study to date on the installation of fire sprinklers in houses is that published by the U.S. National Bureau of Standards. The consultant recommends that a Canadian project be undertaken using the NBS study as a framework with the following changes: 1. Fire risks should be based on experiences with newer houses, and not the average housing stock. 2. Canadian fire data and tax requirements should be substituted for U.S. values where appropriate. 3. Sprinkler costs should be based on the available water perspective. 4. Piping size should be related to available water pressure.
