Fire Protection System Installation: What Businesses Need to Know

Fire Protection and Fighting System (PCCC) construction is a crucial step in the building process, ensuring that the work meets all fire safety standards. Before operations begin, PCCC acceptance testing is a mandatory requirement. In this article, Co-IDB will introduce the PCCC acceptance standards, the key factor ensuring safety for all construction projects.

General Introduction to the PCCC System Construction Method

The PCCC system construction method is the process of implementing technical solutions to install and complete the Fire Protection and Fighting System for projects. This process includes surveying the current status, detailed system design, equipment installation, and connecting components in strict adherence to safety standards.

The construction steps must strictly comply with state regulations, from using fire-resistant materials and arranging the fire alarm system to installing the automatic fire extinguishing system. At the same time, the construction needs close supervision to ensure quality, operational efficiency, and maximum safety for the completed project.

Some Standards for Selecting PCCC System Construction and Acceptance Units

• Certificates and Licenses: The construction unit must possess all professional certificates related to the PCCC field, including licenses issued by competent authorities.

• Experience and Professional Competence: The construction unit needs practical experience in deploying similar PCCC projects, and the technical team must have high professional expertise to ensure project quality.

• Compliance with Current PCCC Standards: The construction unit must apply national technical regulations on fire protection and fighting systems, such as QCVN 06:2021/BXD and TCVN 5738:2021, ensuring the installed system is suitable for the project requirements.

• Clear Acceptance Process: The construction unit needs a detailed PCCC system acceptance process and must be evaluated by competent authorities such as the Fire Police, to ensure the system operates effectively and safely.

• Standard PCCC Equipment: Equipment and materials used in PCCC system construction must be quality-checked, have clear origin, and meet national or international standards.

• Maintenance and Upkeep after Construction: The construction unit must commit to providing periodic maintenance and upkeep services to ensure the PCCC system operates stably throughout the project’s use.

Some Information about PCCC System Construction Method Drawings

What Does a PCCC System Construction Method Drawing Include?

The PCCC system design drawing is divided into two main parts, including: The overall structure of the project and the PCCC construction structure. Specifically as follows:

The PCCC design appraisal drawing plays a vital role, serving as the basis for competent authorities to review and approve before allowing construction. Once approved, this drawing becomes the official “technical design document” of the project.

What Must the PCCC System Construction Method Drawing Meet?

Design According to PCCC Standards

The PCCC system design must comply with standards issued by the Ministry of Public Security and the Fire Police and Rescue Department (Cục Cảnh sát PCCC&CNCH). Specifically, national standards and regulations such as:

• TCVN 5738:2021

• TCVN 7336:2021

• TCVN 2622:1995

• TCVN 9385:2012

Along with these are QCVN standards like QCVN 06:2022/BXD, Amendment 1:2023 QCVN 06:2022, and regulations such as Decree 50/2024/NĐ-CP. Additionally, specific construction items may apply other TCVNs to ensure PCCC safety.

Ensure Detail and Clarity

The designed drawing must detail the following diagrams:

• Overall Project Diagram: Clearly illustrates the project structure, including sections, floor areas, functions, walkways, and escape routes.

• Fire Alarm System Diagram: Presents the location and installation principle of devices such as smoke sensors, heat sensors, and the fire alarm control panel.

• Fire Fighting System Diagram: Shows the location and installation method of fire fighting equipment such as fire hydrants, fire extinguishers, and PCCC devices.

• Fire Water Supply System Diagram: Detailed arrangement of water pipes, storage tanks, and pumps (electric, diesel) supplying the sprinkler system.

• Escape System Diagram: Describes escape routes, stairs, fire-rated doors, and measures to ensure safe evacuation.

Typically, during the fit-out construction process, the installation of the PCCC system must be carried out in harmony with other systems such as interior, ceiling, wall, floor, etc., to ensure the long-term sustainability of the project.

Suitability for Usage Function

A PCCC system construction method drawing that is suitable for the usage function is one that meets all technical and safety criteria, ensures the fire protection and fighting system operates effectively, and is reasonably integrated with the structure and function of the project, facilitating the construction unit to deploy the completion construction process efficiently. Specifically:

• Suitability for Architecture and Project Scale: The drawing needs to clearly show how the PCCC system is installed so as not to obstruct the project’s main activities, such as the location of sensors, fire extinguishers, automatic sprinkler systems, and water pipes.

• Compliance with Technical Standards: The drawing must be designed in accordance with current PCCC standards, ensuring the system meets safety and fire protection requirements, such as TCVN 5738:2021, TCVN 7336:2021, or other regulations depending on the type of construction.

• Synchronized Fire Alarm and Fighting Systems: The locations of fire alarm and fighting equipment need to be reasonably arranged to optimize the ability to detect and handle incidents quickly, ensuring safety for users and assets.

• Escape System: Escape routes, stairs, and fire-rated doors must be integrated into the design, ensuring ease of use in emergency situations, consistent with the function and design of the project.

• Upgrade and Maintenance Capability: The drawing needs to reserve appropriate space and location for future inspection, maintenance, and system upgrades without disrupting the project’s operation.
