Spencer is correct regarding the notes, but the method shown is half again more expensive that simply installing a dry barrel hydrant where needed in lieu of this detail!

I see these used in areas where a jurisdiction wants a hose connection near a large building and for some reason or another can not provide a hydrant directly adjacent. What that picture calls “type a” is the fdc that will serve what is in essence a dry standpipe underground with hose connection outlets, “type b” in that illustration, for fd use as they see fit. The fd can open the valve to control their flow from the outlets. I typically see (2) 2 1/2 gate valves in lieu of a full fledged piv however. I agree that the illustration is deceiving and may need some tweaking...
