  • State-Of-Practice of Water Delivery Systems (Sprinklers) Used in the Wildland-Urban Interface
    [email protected] www.fpinnovations.ca STATE-OF-PRACTICE OF WATER DELIVERY SYSTEMS (SPRINKLERS) USED IN THE WILDLAND-URBAN INTERFACE COMPENDIUM FPInnovations April 2019 This compendium is not restricted. This is a compendium of reports published during the state-of-practice review of water delivery systems (sprinklers) in the wildland-urban interface (WUI). Funding for this review was provided by the Forest Resource Improvement Association of Alberta (FRIAA). Sprinklers are used to protect structures from wildfire during wildland-urban interface (WUI) events across Canada. Traditionally, standard forestry equipment has been used in conjunction with impact sprinklers. FPInnovations is reviewing common practices and equipment used during sprinkler deployments, in Canada, to determine if they are the most appropriate for community structure protection, or if alternative approaches should be considered. This compendium includes a literature review of the pathways to structure ignition, the results of a national survey on the use of sprinklers in Canada, a review of standards and codes specific to the WUI that relate to the use of sprinklers, the results of an equipment evaluation, a collection of WUI case studies and observations that describe actual sprinkler deployments, and a discussion on best practices and recommendations to enhance the effectiveness of sprinkler deployments. 301012735: FRIAA SPRINKLER PROJECT PRIMARY AUTHORS CONTACT INFORMATION Ray Ault COMPENDIUM Wilderness Fire Management Inc.
