Engineering Calculations

Precise technical calculations and analyses for MEP systems design validation and optimization.

Verification of Firefighting Pump Selection – Seven Makkah Project

Performed firefighting system calculations using Elite Software to validate and approve pump selection in compliance with project specifications and safety standards.

Calculation Methodology

• Hydraulic calculations following NFPA standards
• System demand analysis for most hydraulically remote areas
• Pressure loss calculations through pipes, fittings, and devices
• Water supply requirement determination based on hazard classification

Software Utilized

• Elite Software FIRE for hydraulic calculations
• Excel for data analysis and verification
• Manufacturer pump curve analysis tools
• Revit for system modeling and parameter extraction

Calculation Results Visualization

This diagram illustrates the hydraulically most remote sprinklers in a fire sprinkler system, detailing their elevation levels, pipe lengths from the riser to each sprinkler, and clear numbering for each sprinkler head to support accurate hydraulic calculation.

This image displays an Elite sprinkler system output summary report, presenting detailed hydraulic calculations for a wet system with calculations performed on 13 remote sprinklers.
