Project Description

The project will accomplish the design and installation of a new fire sprinkler system(s) service Buildings 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 and 7 on Sinclair’s Downtown Dayton Campus.  These buildings currently have no fire sprinkler systems.  Construction work may need to be phased for cost and timing.  New piping must be enclosed in new or existing aesthetic chases or soffits wherever possible and in public spaces or high-profile spaces.  New construction shall meet Sinclair standards.  Some piping may be left exposed in classrooms or offices where open-to-structure coffer ceilings are present, in which case the piping will be painted to match and shall run in line with building structural lines.  All spaces with suspended acoustical tile ceilings will have the piping concealed above the ceiling.  New pump rooms or riser rooms may need to be built.  Fire sprinkler systems, piping specifications, calculations, piping layout plans, etc. will all be performed by the sprinkler contractor via Design Build.
