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.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Residential fire sprinkler ordinances have been adopted by several hundred United States communities for use in single-family dwellings. Such systems have been shown to provide significant life safety benefits, however the installed cost of these systems remains as a point of uncertainty and a potential barrier to broader adoption. Informal estimates of typical installation costs can vary widely and influence decision makers views on the viability of sprinkler systems in new homes. Accordingly, the purpose of this study is to provide a national perspective on the cost of home fire sprinklers by developing data on installation costs and cost savings for ten communities distributed throughout the United States. The study also explores the range of insurance premium discounts which are available to homeowners with sprinkler systems in their houses.".

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.
