Kings County Jail Expansion Phase 3 Rational Analysis of Smoke Control System
Kings County Jail Phase 3 Page 2 RATIONAL ANALYSIS OF SMOKE CONTROL SYSTEM PER 2013 CBC 909.4 General Description: The project consists of a major addition to the existing Kings County Jail facility. The addition includes 1 new medical housing wing, new kitchen facility, new classrooms, and a non-detention warehouse facility. The new additions are all single story. The existing Jail is of Type 1 construction with unlimited area SF. The new addition will add 26,367 SF to the existing building. The new additions will be located on the north-east side of the existing facility. The new additions will be of the same construction type and fully fire sprinkled except for the warehouse facility. The warehouse facilities will be a pre-manufactured metal building. The new classroom additions and medical housing areas with lay-in ceilings and/or low structure height, will be equipped with an active Smoke Control System, SCS, based on the 2013 CBC 909.6 Pressurization Method. The kitchen smoke zone areas with lay-in ceilings and/or low structure height will utilize a Purge method. All areas will be designed in accordance with 2013 CBC 909 and shall have complete automatic control via the smoke evacuation panels and/or the fire alarm panels. Design Considerations: The design intent is for the Smoke Control System to contain the smoke within a given smoke zone and provide a tenable environment for the interval of time required to safely evacuate or relocate all of the occupants within a given Smoke Zone. Per the evacuation plan provided by the County(see Appendix D), the time to safely evacuate the occupants from each smoke zone is less than ten minutes. The new addition will be divided into 3 separate smoke control zones (refer to drawing M1.00 for zone boundaries). Each zone will have its own smoke control system and operation (refer to drawing M1.01 for operation matrix and system schematics, operation matrix also included in Appendix C). Zones 1, 2 and 3 are separated from the existing jail facility by the secured circulation corridor and will be connected to the existing facility with new secured circulation corridors.
Kings County Jail Phase 3 Page 3 Pressurization Method Areas The classroom areas (smoke zone 1) and medical housing area (smoke zone 3) will utilize the pressurization method for smoke control per 2013 CBC 909.6. A large volume smoke-rated exhaust fan will exhaust all air from the classrooms pulling 100% outdoor make-up air through an intake relief vent on the roof. Classrooms will each be exhausted at a negative pressure relative to the adjacent zone without exceeding the maximum door-opening force of 30 lbs per CBC 1008.1.3. The supply air and return air ductwork normally serving these spaces will be isolated from other zones by closing combination fire/smoke dampers. For the medical housing area, large volume smoke-rated exhaust fans will exhaust all air from the open, high ceiling corridor maintaining a negative pressure while the air handler provides 100% outdoor make-up air to the cells to positively pressurize the cells. Ceiling supply to the corridor area will be shut off by smoke dampers to prevent mixing of the corridor smoke layer. The Purge Method Areas The kitchen areas (smoke zone 2) with all low ceiling areas will utilize the purge method of smoke evacuation due to the low ceiling heights and difficulty maintaining a tenable space beyond 6-feet tall. The air handler serving these areas will operate in the 100% outside air mode with the supply fans running to provide make-up air for the smoke exhaust fans. The smoke exhaust fans will energize upon alarm to exhaust the space and maintain a tenable 6-foot zone. Design Fire (Heat Release Rate, HRR) The design fire (or design HRR) for each zone area will vary due to the function of the space and the anticipated fuel available to produce a fire. The HRR is estimated to be between 237 Btu/s and 265 Btu/s (refer to NFPA 92B-2012 Smoke Exhaust Calculations in Appendix B). The calculations are based on a steady state fire with fuel products such as paper, clothing and a common fuel source such as cooking oil. The combustible materials assumed for the classroom space is limited to paper products and minor clothing. The combustible materials assumed for the kitchen area is food packaging trash. Fires centered around the cooking appliances will be controlled by the fire suppression system included with the kitchen hoods. For the medical housing area, the combustible materials are limited to the personal belongings an inmate is allowed to keep in their cell. This is the equivalent of paper goods and clothing. Furniture in all of the spaces is comprised of steel furniture and CA Bulletin 133 tested flame retardant plastic chairs. Mattresses in the medical housing meet or exceed the flammability requirements of CA Bulletin 129, CA Bulletin 603 and 16 CFR Part 1633. Below is a list of the Smoke Zones and the corresponding fire size (HRR) for each space:
Kings County Jail Phase 3 Page 4 1. Smoke Zone #1 (Classrooms Area G) = 265 Btu/s a. Wastepaper basket (6 lbs) = 14.2 Btu/s b. Cotton Clothing (2 lbs) = 113.5 Btu/s c. Fuel Source (oil) = 109 Btu/s 2. Smoke Zone #2 (Kitchen Area G) = 800 Btu/s a. Plastic trash bags with cellulosic trash (2 bags) = 551 Btu/s b. Large barrel with milk cartons = 140 Btu/s c. Fuel Source (oil) = 109 Btu/s 3. Smoke Zone #3 (Medical Housing Area H) = 350 Btu s a. Wastepaper basket (2 lbs) = 14.2 Btu/s b. Cotton Clothing (4 lbs) = 227 Btu/s c. Fuel Source (oil) = 109 Btu/s The HRR was derived based on the following assumptions: Wastepaper basket (2 lbs) = 15 kw (14.2 Btu/s) Plastic trash bag with cellulosic trash = 110 to 330 btu/s per NFPA 92B Appendix B. Large barrel with milk cartons = 140 btu/s per NFPA 92B Appendix B. Cotton Clothing (4 lbs) = 240 kw (227 Btu/s) Fuel Source (1-tablespoon oil) = 115 kw (109 Btu/s) Ceiling Heights The ceiling heights vary in each of the individual smoke zones from 10-0 to 15-0 (refer to Appendix B for the NFPA 92B-2012 Smoke Exhaust Calculations for ceiling heights in each zone). Climatic Design Conditions: 29 DegF winter outdoor design temperature, 105 DegF summer outdoor design temperature, 15 MPH wind speed, and 68 DegF 78 DegF inside design temperature range.
Kings County Jail Phase 3 Page 5 Special Considerations: Stack Effect: Since the building is only 18 tall to the top of the parapet and the thermal difference between the indoor and outdoor conditions is slight, there is little potential for adverse inference due to stack effect. Temperature Effect: The local indoor and outdoor design conditions are not so extreme to expect the smoke plume to act differently than the calculations would predict. Wind Effect: The building addition butts up against the northeast side of the existing Jail. The prevailing wind is from the northwesterly direction. With a design wind speed of only 15 MPH the wind is expected to have little impact on system performance. Climate: Our local conditions are such that it doesn t snow. The prospect of snow or ice blockage of make-up air inlets or exhaust outlets is very remote.
Kings County Jail Phase 3 Page 6 Smoke Control System and HVAC System: The HVAC Systems are 4-pipe rooftop VAV systems. The supply air is ducted to VAV Boxes and then distributed to actual zones through supply outlets. The return air system is a ducted return with return outlets ducted back to the rooftop unit. The Medical holding cells have dedicated exhaust systems to maintain constant ventilation airflow through the cells. For the remaining areas, there are localized exhaust fans which provide general exhaust for restrooms and various spaces and also maintain space pressurization. Smoke Zone 1 (Classrooms) Pressurization Method Description The Smoke Control System (SCS) for Smoke Zone 1 designed with the Pressurization Method per 2013 CBC 909.6 will utilize a dedicated SCS exhaust fan during the smoke control operation with the general supply and return ventilation ductwork isolated by closed combination fire/smoke dampers. Make-up air for each classroom will be provided via large intake relief vents on the roof with motorized fail-open dampers opened by the SCS, drawing in 100% outside make-up air. Air will be drawn through the intake vents by the action of the exhaust fans. The static pressure resistance of the make-up air path will determine the negative pressure maintained in the individual classrooms. The exhaust fans are sized to handle the static pressure through the make-up air dampers and are UL listed Power Ventilators for Smoke-Control Systems, rated and certified for the increased temperature requirements of smoke control at 500 F/4 hrs and 1000 F/ 15 mins. The make-up air is provided directly to each classroom and all areas will be exhausted simultaneously once the system is activated at a rate of 20 air changes per hour (3 minute air change rate). Negative pressure in the classrooms relative to the adjacent smoke zones and secure corridor will contain the smoke to the classroom in which the fire occurs. Differential pressures will not exceed the maximum door-opening force of 30 lbs per 2013 CBC 1008.1.3. Evacuation procedure provided by the County is to evacuate the inmates from the space in which the smoke is contained to either an adjacent empty classroom or to the secure corridor and then to the designated safe area. The planned classroom loading is 18 inmates and one instructor. The estimated time required to relocate the occupants once the smoke detection system is activated is less than 10 minutes. Refer to Appendix D for evacuation procedures and timing provided by the County. Refer to the Smoke Control Zoning List in Appendix A, the Smoke Control Operation Matrix in Appendix C and on drawing M1.01, the SCS Schematics on drawing M1.01, and the Exhaust Fan Schedules on M0.02 for the specific fans and relief hoods serving each space. The Service row in the Exhaust Fan Schedule indicates which fans are dedicated smoke control fans. Dedicated smoke control fans only operate during SCS operation.
Kings County Jail Phase 3 Page 7 Smoke Zone 2 (Kitchen) Purge Method Description The Smoke Control System for smoke zone 2 designed with the Purge Method will utilize the dedicated SCS exhaust fans during the smoke control operation with the general exhaust fans in that zone de-energized. The kitchen area will utilize a dedicated SCS exhaust fan in addition to enabling the kitchen hood exhaust fans for the removal of the smoke. The exhaust fans are sized to handle the static pressure through the make-up air dampers and are UL listed Power Ventilators for Smoke- Control Systems, rated and certified for the increased temperature requirements of smoke control at 500 F/4 hrs and 1000 F/ 15 mins. Exhaust and make-up air for each zone will be drawn through the overhead ductwork of each VAV air handler. The air handler shall operate in the 100% outside air mode for the make-up air to the smoke exhaust fans. The air handler is specified with UL 555S listed return and outside air dampers and are rated and certified for the increased temperature requirements of smoke control. The air handler shall be provided with a dedicated UL listed smoke control panel to control the fan and damper operation within the air handler during smoke evacuation mode. The VAV boxes are specified with fail open damper actuators. The SCS will interrupt power to all VAV boxes in this zone allowing the VAV dampers to actuate to full open. Since the make-up air is provided through a duct system that is common to all areas within this zone, all areas served by the air handler will be exhausted simultaneously once the system is activated. Additional make-up air will be provided via large intake relief vents on the roof with UL555S listed motorized fail-open dampers with end switches opened by the SCS, drawing in 100% outdoor make-up air. Make-up air will be drawn in through the relief vents by the negative space pressure created by the exhaust system. Evacuation procedure provided by the County is to evacuate the occupants from the kitchen area to the secure Culinary Kitchen corridor and then to the designated safe area. The estimated time required to relocate the occupants once the smoke detection system is activated is less than 10 minutes. Refer to Appendix D for evacuation procedures and timing provided by the County. Refer to the Smoke Control Zoning List in Appendix A, the Smoke Control Operation Matrix in Appendix C and on drawing M1.01, the SCS Schematics on drawing M1.01, and the Exhaust Fan Schedules on M0.02 for the specific fans and air handlers serving each space. The Service row in the Exhaust Fan Schedule indicates which fans are dedicated smoke control fans. Dedicated smoke control fans only operate during SCS operation.
Kings County Jail Phase 3 Page 8 Smoke Zone 3 (Medical Housing) Pressurization Method Description The Smoke Control System (SCS) for Smoke Zone 3 designed with the Pressurization Method per 2013 CBC 909.6 will utilize two dedicated SCS exhaust fans during the smoke control operation with make-up air provided through the main air handler serving this zone in addition to relief vents. All of the cells will be positively pressurized and the corridor will be negatively exhausted. Upon detection of smoke the SCS will enable the smoke exhaust fans to maintain a negative pressure and exhaust all air from the open high ceiling corridor area at a rate of 20 air changes per hour (3 minute air change rate). The exhaust fans are sized to handle the static pressure through the make-up air dampers and are UL listed Power Ventilators for Smoke-Control Systems, rated and certified for the increased temperature requirements of smoke control at 500 F/4 hrs and 1000 F/ 15 mins. All other exhaust fans normally serving the cells and restroom areas will be deactivated. The air handler shall operate in 100% outside air mode providing positive pressure and make-up air to the cells. The air handler is specified with UL 555S listed return and outside air dampers and are rated and certified for the increased temperature requirements of smoke control. The air handler shall be provided with a dedicated UL listed smoke control panel to control the fan and damper operation within the air handler during smoke evacuation mode. The VAV boxes are specified with fail open damper actuators. The SCS will interrupt power to all VAV boxes in this zone allowing the VAV dampers to actuate to full open. Supply air from the air handler will be shut off to the corridor by combination fire/smoke dampers to prevent mixing of the smoke layer in the corridor. Make-up air to the corridor will be provided by two relief openings down low in the wall from the Rec Yard at the east end of the corridor and two roof mounted relief vents ducted down to low wall vents on the west end of the corridor. UL555S listed motorized fail-open dampers with end switches opened by the SCS will be provided at all relief openings. Differential pressures will not exceed the maximum door-opening force of 30 lbs per 2013 CBC 1008.1.3. Evacuation procedure provided by the County is to evacuate the inmates from the space where the smoke is originating, through the corridor and out to either the adjacent secure corridor or the Rec Yard. All other inmates will remain in their cells positively pressurized with 100% outside make-up air. The estimated time required to relocate the occupants once the smoke detection system is activated is less than 10 minutes. Refer to Appendix D for evacuation procedures and timing provided by the County. Refer to the Smoke Control Zoning List in Appendix A, the Smoke Control Operation Matrix in Appendix C and on drawing M1.01, the SCS Schematics on drawing M1.01, and the Exhaust Fan Schedules on M0.02 for the specific fans and relief hoods serving each space. The Service row in the Exhaust Fan Schedule indicates which fans are dedicated smoke control fans. Dedicated smoke control fans only operate during SCS operation.
