REPORT OF THE MOTIONS COMMITTEE 2018 NFPA TECHNICAL MEETING

JUNE 14, 2018 LAS VEGAS, NV

I. Introduction

This is the Report of the Motions Committee listing Certified Amending Motions that may be presented at the 2018 NFPA Technical Meeting (Tech Session) in Las Vegas, NV on June 14, 2018. The Motions Committee, consisting of NFPA Standards Council Members James Golinveaux, Bonnie Manley (Chair), Gary Keith, Daniel O’Connor, James Quiter, and Michael Snyder has been appointed by the Chair of the Standards Council to certify proper amending motions and otherwise review and act, in accordance with 2.1 through 2.7 of the NFPA Technical Meeting Convention Rules (Convention Rules), on Notices of Intent to Make a Motion (NITMAMs) that have been submitted on NFPA codes and standards (“Standards”), and processed in the Annual 2018 Revision Cycle. The Motions Committee met to review and act on NITMAMs for Annual 2018 documents. At the meeting the Motions Committee reviewed and acted upon NITMAMs submitted on ten documents, resulting in certified motions on eight documents.

The Certified Amending Motions for the Annual 2018 Revision Cycle and the Fall 2017 Revision Cycle Documents are summarized in Part II of this Report; Part III summarizes the Annual 2018 proposed Motions that were not certified or that were withdrawn; Part IV of this Report lists “Consent Standards” in the Annual 2018 Revision Cycle that have no Certified Amending Motions. Table A summarizes the Annual 2018 Revision motions that were not certified. Table B summarizes the Annual 2018 Revision motions that were withdrawn.

In reviewing this Report, the following should be considered:

The only Amending Motions allowed at an NFPA Technical Meeting are Certified AmendingMotions set forth in a report of the Motions Committee and any Follow-Up Motions (e.g.motions that may become necessary as a result of a previous successful Amending Motion).(See Convention Rules at 3.4.4.)

Certified Amending Motions at the NFPA Technical Meeting can only be made by person(s)listed in this Report as authorized to make the motion, or by persons designated in writing tothe Standards Council Secretary by the motion submitter as their Designated Representative.See Regulations Governing the Development of NFPA Standards (Regulations) at 4.5.3.5(c).

The Certified Amending Motions set forth in this Report are proper and permissible; they will,however, only be presented for the consideration of the membership at the 2018 NFPATechnical Meeting if a person authorized to make the motion (or the identified DesignatedRepresentative) physically appears no later than one hour before the beginning of the session(see Convention Rules at 2.7), and makes the motion in accordance with NFPA rules.

The information presented above provides a general introduction to some relevant features of the NITMAM process and the presentation of Certified Amending Motions. For complete information of

Report Layout Certified Amending Motions (CAMs)

This Report contains Certified Amending Motions (CAMs) for NFPA Standards in the Annual 2018 revision cycle that will be considered at the June, 2018 NFPA Technical Meeting (Tech Session). These motions have been certified and determined as proper by the Motions Committee in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Development of NFPA Standards (Regs) and the NFPA Technical Meeting Convention Rules (Convention Rules). Although the motions as certified will not change, the manner in which they are presented, their layout, and the accompanying supportive material may be modified (solely for presentation), removed or added to. Please make note of, and take into consideration, the following:

1) Report Sections.The Motions are displayed via two distinct sections which are as follows:

I. CAM Overview. Page 7 lists all the CAMs for NFPA 13 that can be pursued at the Tech Session. It includes a reference to the pages containing text that illustrates the potential impact of the CAMs if they were to pass or fail. This page is repeated for all other Annual 2018 Standards being considered at the Tech Session.

II. Effect of CAMs. Page 8 displays the potential text of NFPA 13 if Motion Seq # 13-1 were to pass or fail. These pages immediately proceed the applicable CAM Overview page and follow the same order as the motion sequence numbers 13-1. The impact of a successful CAM on the Second Draft text is shown legislatively. The effect of an unsuccessful motion is illustrated by simply showing the applicable Second Draft text, without legislative changes. Please see below the editorial legend used throughout these sections.

Draft text is displayed as follows: (Strikethrough: indicates the deletion of text) (Underline: indicates the addition of text)

2) Editorial Renumbering.The text, which illustrates the certified amending motion, is derived from the First Draft Report and Second Draft Report. As a result, the section numbersand other materials relating to formatting are subject to change based on the final recommendations of the entire standards development process.

3) NFPA Technical Meeting Consideration.The material provided in this Report is intended to illustrate the potential impact of a successful or unsuccessful Amending Motion on the text of an NFPAStandard. The amendment is based on the recommendation of the NFPA membership when an Amending Motion is filed and presented in accordance withthe Regulations Governing the Development of NFPA Standards (Regs). IMPORTANT NOTE: The text as recommended by the NFPA membership issubject to the entire standards development process. Therefore, the standard, recommended amendment, and associated text cannot be considered final untilthe responsible committee(s) are balloted, where required by the Regs, and the standard is issued by the Standards Council. Per Table 1 of the Regs, anyfailed Ballot will result in a recommendation to return the related text to previous edition text.

5.2.2.2.1* Water supply information shall be adjusted to account for seasonal and daily pressure fluctuations based on information from the water supply authority through testing or modeling and as approved by the authority having jurisdiction.

A.5.2.2.2.1 The adjustment should take into account the following variables, which will be applicable to different degrees depending onhow and when the test or modeling was conducted:

1. Maximum daily use of the water supply2. Peak hour demand of the water supply3. Water supply degradation due to planned development4. Time of day the test was conducted5. Time of year the test was conducted6. Elevation of the test location compared to the building where the sprinkler system will be installed7. Elevation of the water supply at the time of the test8. How close the flow generated during the test was to the system demand

There is no single specific adjustment that can be applied to every water supply that would be appropriate for every sprinkler system. The design professional needs to work in conjunction with the authority having jurisdiction to determine an appropriate adjustment. Where an authority having jurisdiction has already determined a specific buffer between test results and the demand of the sprinkler system, there is no intent to add an additional safety factor or safety margin due to this requirement. Instead, the buffer mandated by the authority having jurisdiction serves the purpose of this adjustment.

In the absence of information from the design professional and the authority having jurisdiction, it would be appropriate to make an adjustment to the raw data from a flow test by either obtaining information from the water utility or using an arbitrary adjustment. The value to use for an arbitrary adjustment should be determined through a conversation with the authority having jurisdiction. It is important to note that not all water supplies have a linear relationship of flow to pressure. As flow demand increases, additional water can be provided into the system through multiple pumps, causing complex geometries to the pressure and flow relationship at any given point in the system. Creating multiple flow conditions during a test and getting as close as possible to the sprinkler system demand will help in gaining a complete understanding of the water supply.

5.2.2.2.2* Water supply adjustments shall be based on knowledge of the water supply and engineering judgment, taking into account daily and seasonal fluctuations, not extreme conditions.



13-5 (Cont’d)

A.5.2.2.2.2 The purpose of the adjustment is to take into account reasonable daily and seasonal variations in the water supply, which areeasily predicted and tracked by a water utility. It is not the intent to use this section to account for unusual conditions such as 100-yeardroughts or water main breaks. These unusual conditions are handled through the impairment procedures of NFPA 25 and should not beconsidered when determining the ability of a water supply to meet the demand of a fire protection system under more normalcircumstances.

18.4.2.1* To meet the requirements of Section 10.10, the alarm audible signal pattern used to notify building occupants of the need to evacuate (leave the building) or relocate (from one area to another) shall be the standard alarm evacuation signal consisting of a three-pulse temporal pattern. The pattern shall be in accordance with ANSI/ASA S3.41, American National Standard Audible Emergency Evacuation (E2) and Evacuation Signals with Relocation Instructions (ESRI).

A.18.4.2.1 Paragraph Section 10.10 requires that alarm signals be distinctive in sound from other signals and that this sound not be used for any otherpurpose. The use of the distinctive three-pulse temporal pattern signal required by 18.4.2.1 became effective July 1, 1996, for new systems installedafter that date. It is not the intent to prohibit continued use of an existing consistent evacuation signaling scheme, subject to approval by the authorityhaving jurisdiction. It is also not the intent that the distinct pattern be applied to visible appliances.

Prior to the 2013 edition, the use of the temporal code 3 distinctive evacuation signal was intended only where total or partial evacuation of the building was the intended response. In If required by the authority having jurisdiction, in order to eliminate the need for additional signals to mean “relocate,” the temporal code 3 signal is now permitted to be used where relocation or partial evacuation of occupants within the building is the intended response. The simple result is people should not be in any area where the signal is sounding and that it is safe to be anywhere that signal is not sounding.

The temporal pattern can be produced by any audible notification appliance, as illustrated in Figure A.18.4.2.1 (a) and Figure A.18.4.2.1 (b).
