Prequalification
Check whether the exact product and service have the required evidence.
Fire protection / approval-gated review
Organise the fire-protection service brief around system type, component acceptance, connection details and required documentation.
Application guide · design inputs
Application analysis
Identify the fire-system type, design basis, project acceptance authority and owner/insurer requirements. Prepare the component schedule against those requirements, including product-specific listings and installation conditions where required.
Mark supply connections, isolation and distribution zones on the system drawings. Include hydraulic calculations, sprinkler layout, alarms, seismic restraint and commissioning within the fire-protection design package. Use the concept figure to discuss interfaces; use the project drawings for installation.
Check whether the exact product and service have the required evidence.
Map proposed parts to named approvals and their limitations.
Prepare a clear interface and responsibility schedule for design review.
Concept arrangement / 10
Select a review point to inspect the source, controls and distribution of a representative utility module.
Accepted supply — The supply and design basis are established by the fire-protection designer.
Engineering review
| Design input | What it changes | Evidence to request |
|---|---|---|
| Acceptance basis | Establish standard, system type and project authority. | Adopted requirements and authority/insurer acceptance criteria. |
| Component evidence | Check the named product, manufacturer and permitted duty. | Applicable listings, approvals and certificate schedules. |
| System design | Keep hydraulic and life-safety functions in the specialist scope. | Approved fire-protection drawings and design calculations. |
| Installation control | Align joining, inspection and testing with the accepted system. | Manufacturer instructions and project inspection/test plan. |
Part-number starting points
Review catalogue dimensions, materials and connection types alongside the service schedule. Add selected part numbers to your enquiry.
Specify the size, pipe outside diameter, material, seal, joining system and tool. Include the intended duty and required product acceptance documents with the enquiry.

Questions worth resolving
Match the manufacturer, product, size, service and installation conditions to the project’s required acceptance documents.
Include the system drawings, hydraulic calculation, component schedule, alarm/control interfaces, restraint details and commissioning requirements.
Resolve the documentation before specification or select a component with the required evidence for the intended use.
