Design of multi-story chemical plant buildings of Class A
Thread Content
Recently, the architectural drawings for multi-story Class A factory buildings in some of the company’s projects were deemed by the drawing review agency to violate the mandatory provision in Article 3.3.1 of the Code for Fire Protection Design, which states that Class A factories \"should preferably be single-story\". As a result, the architectural designers are now reluctant to work on multi-story Class A factory buildings for other projects and refuse to sign off on the drawings. I would like to ask if anyone has encountered this situation and how it should be handled
That can’t be right; is this drawing review company an alien entity?
I also think the drawing review company has problems. It’s just that there are no strict requirements. Logically, of course, a single layer is better. It would be best if the fire separation distance were 10,000 meters... Some design concepts require multi-story structures. Some are due to land use issues. Is it because the drawing review company isn’t doing its job properly? Are you owners not getting along well in the local area?
There are still some things that haven’t been delivered by the drawing review company, right? ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !
Code for Fire Protection Design of Buildings, 3.3.1: The requirements for multi-story factories apply during the same period; only the fire compartments are smaller than those in single-story factories
Such problems should not occur! If the review agency is indeed that ignorant, one can file a complaint with the higher-level authorities to ensure they face consequences for their actions!
Some property owners are very influential in the area, while others don’t fare well there~
Since it is \"recommended to use a single layer\", it is not mandatory.
The drawing review company can raise this issue, but as a design institute, you need to provide them with a reasonable explanation. If you yourself aren’t sure why multiple layers are used or if a single layer would work, that would obviously be best. The review comments are not the final conclusion.
