I know I am late on this one but I have to know.  My fitters commonly
core a 6in hole in the stair landing for 4in pipe when running
standpipes.  It looks like we should be coring a 8in hole per 9.3.4.2.
Am I reading this correct?  
Thanks,
Dewayne

Subject: Pipe Sleeves

We have an existing school we are sprinkling. When we pass through a
block wall, non-rated (smoke, fire etc.) we plan on providing clearance
or a flex coupling within a foot of the wall on both sides of the wall.
Does it say anywhere we have to use sleeves for block walls? We will be
using Sch. 10 & 40 pipe as well as CPVC. I can't seem to find anything
other than NFPA 13 -
2007 9.3.4.3 "Where clearance is provided by a pipe sleeve.." But
nothing requiring one.

 

Thank you in advance.
