The objective of this guideline is to provide minimum standards for design and installation of fire alarm systems for the University of Missouri.\u003Cbr>2. Fire alarm systems are Life Safety Systems and the utmost of care must be taken when designing these systems.\u003Cbr>3. All designs must be in full compliance with the UM adopted version ofIBC and NFPA Standards, including NFPA 72 National Fire Alarm Code that is in effect for the project as well as all other applicable codes and standards adopted by the University of Missouri. All materials used in fire alarm installations should be FM Approved (where applicable) . This consists mainly of smoke detectors, fire alarms (strobes, speakers, speaker strobe, etc.), monitor modules, control modules, and fire alarm panels.\u003Cbr>4. Design is to be done by an engineer who is licensed by the State of Missouri or a NICET Level IV technician certified in Fire Protection Engineering Technology – Fire Alarm Systems. Fire alarm plans and specifications must be sealed by a Missouri Professional Engineer who has training and experience in the design of fire alarm systems of the type and scope included in the project. Further, the registrant who seals the documents must be able to answer questions posed by code reviewers on the project.\u003Cbr>5. Ensure construction drawings include details for all the proposed firestopping systems that could be encountered on the project based on the construction type and rating of the assemblies being penetrated. A specific Division 28 firestopping spec can be inserted, or reference related section 078400 for details.\u003Cbr>6. The consultant shall review all submittals from the installing contractor to verify conformance with the contract documents.\u003Cbr>7. Prior to final inspection, the AHJ approved inspector is responsible for verifying the fire alarm contractor has fully tested and certified the system in accordance with NFPA 72. A copy of the NFPA 72 Record of Completion shall be sent to the Engineer of Record and Owner’s Representative.\u003Cbr>8. Designers shall use and follow the guidelines herein only for the purpose of preparing the designer’s plans and specifications for the specific project in their contract. These guidelines are not written in contractual language for bidding purposes and contract enforcement. Therefore, the designer is not to insert the document “as-is” into the specifications. The designer is to revise the language to be contractual, make project specific decisions on\u003Cbr>Page 1 of 12 28 3000 |\n| --- | --- |\n\nCONSULTANT PROCEDURES & DESIGN GUIDELINES UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI  \n28 3100- Fire Alarm Systems 2026 Q2  \nalternatives and options, and provide device locations specific to the project. This guideline is also available on the UM web site.  \n9. The Owner’s Representative is the point of contact for the contractor. The local fire department will be contacted ONLY by the Owner representative, unless directed otherwise by the Owner’s representative.  \n10. Fire alarm symbols and details shall comply with NFPA-170.  \nDESIGN GUIDELINES:  \n1. This design guideline establishes the basic requirements for the design of fire alarm systems including functions, layout, industry standards, permissible systems, and materials.  \n2. Fire alarm system design includes but is not limited to all the following components and systems:  \n2.1. Fire alarm panel  \n2.2. Initiating devices  \n2.3. Notification devices  \n2.4. Mass notification systems (if desired or required)  \n2.5. Other code required components  \n3. Design calculations shall be done in accordance with NFPA 72 and the following requirements:  \n3.1. Current draw on each notification circuit with allowance for 20% expansion.  \n3.2. Voltage drop on each notification circuit.  \n3.3. Stand-by battery capacity for entire system including any power expanders.  \n3.4.
