It is subject to changes at any time. Sprinkler plan submittals shall be in accordance with the standard plan submittal as provided by the Arizona Fire Marshal Association, which can be found the website http://www.azfma.com/?q=node/10. It is designer’s responsibility to design the systems complying with the related codes and standards. A copy of this guide shall be attached to submitted drawings. A REVIEW WILL NOT BE CONDUCTED WITHOUT THIS GUIDE BEING SUBMITTED WITH THE DRAWINGS. The following items shall be included on the submittals. Place initials beside each item to indicate information is included on or submitted with the drawings. Place N/R for items not required by the code. Place N/A for items non-applicable.
