Abstract

This research aims to evaluate fire protection system of educational laboratory building of Universitas Samudra in Langsa city. The building, containing chemical and biological materials that are susceptible to fire, should be protected carefully against potential fires. In addition, sophisticated and expensive equipment for practicum and research including the physical building material are also an additional factor to be preserved according to large investments budget provided. The building, served as practicum and research center will be reviewed from the aspect of active, passive, and management systems that refer to Indonesian standards and regulations. Field observations, data collection and interview were performed in observing the existing condition of the building using descriptive methods. To support the evaluation process, building model is carried out using Sketchup, AutoCAD and Dialux simulation in order to achieve more in-depth observations. The results of this study show that in general the building has met adequate fire protection system standards. The existing volume of the ground water tank is only sufficient for the daily operational needs of water in the laboratory building. However, this amount is not sufficient in a fire scenario. The addition of a new ground water tank and the addition of a Siamese connection to support the need for water imported from fire trucks is required. In addition, there is a need for a fire hazard management team in the building and the need for technical operational standards for the maintenance of all components.

1. Introduction

Recently, frequent fires of the building [1] have shown that there are internal and external factor contributed to the fire disaster namely short circuit problems [2], the use of flammable chemicals and material [3][4], continuous use of electrical equipment [5]. Moreover, the lack of fire risk management [6]

and maintenance [7][8] as well as narrow access to the building site [9], however, possess high potential

(2)

fire hazard in the educational laboratories. This hazard can cause harm to resident, equipment, and construction of building itself. There is a high amount of investment budget required to construct a laboratory building as well as pricey equipment installed for research. Therefore, the building was required to be protected safely from fire [10]. Several studies on fire protection of laboratory buildings have suggested that re-arranging the sprinkler distance and fire extinguishers [8], forming a fire emergency response team [11], periodically inspecting and replacing fire safety [12], and improving student knowledge of fire safety [13] are among the solution implemented.

Given the importance of protecting a laboratory building from fire hazards as previously described, as well as little research found related to fire hazards at the Universitas Samudra, this study aims to analyze the fire protection system in the building by referring to the Indonesian standards and regulations of active, passive and management fire protection systems [14]–[16]. The results of the study are then discussed and evaluated to identify the possible problem and best-practice solution to the laboratory manager for maintaining the building from fire.

2. Material and Methods

The building was located in the center area of Universitas Samudra in Kota Langsa, Aceh Province Indonesia. The building was constructed in 2022 and operated in early 2023. As a new building, the evaluation of fire safety should be carried out to ensure the level of security. DED (Detail Engineering Design) was collected from university planning division manager to obtain more information related to fire protection method which has been planned earlier. Moreover, interviews were conducted to the manager, operators, laboratory assistants to identify potential peril from the machinery equipment’s. Furthermore, field observation was performed to investigate the completeness of safety components and rescue facilities on site. Finally, data collections will be evaluated and analyzed referring to the technical regulation for fire protection systems in buildings and the environment.

Sketchup and AutoCAD software are utilized for modelling purposed for analysing both active and passive fire protection. Moreover, Dialux is performed to simulate the emergency lighting levels of the building. Furthermore, fire extinguisher in every room is calculated by following equation:

𝑅 =𝜋

4𝐷2 (1)

∑ 𝐹 =𝑅

𝐴 (2)

Fire hydrant is one of the important points for active protection, the required building hydrant can be determined by the empirical formula:

∑ 𝐻 =𝐴

𝑅× 2 (3)

The sprinkler system is set to be connected all over the building using water-based auto sprinklers.

In order to enhance the water pressure, primary and secondary system springkler is applied. The required sprinkler is shown by the equation:

∑ 𝑆 =𝐴

𝐿 (4)

The laboratory building is located beside the PGSD building which already has ground water tank.

In order to optimize water sources, this lab building is planned to use the existing water source and pump system. Calculation of ground water tank capacity is calculated by the following equation:

𝑉 = 𝑄 × 𝑇 (5)

3. Results and Discussion Fire extinguishers (APAR)

Referring to SNI 03-3987-1995 [17], it was found that the University of Samudra Laboratory Building was included in the Class B fire category. This was due to the large amount of flammable liquid in the building. Therefore, the type of APAR that is suitable for use is dry chemical powder liquid or dry chemical powder. The maximum distance of APAR is 15 m and floor are 816, so that the protected floor area is calculated by equation (1), the calculation of the need for fire extinguishers is shown in Table 1.

Fire Hydrant

Based on SNI 03-1745-2000 and the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) [18], the fire hydrant system of lab building is indicated to light fire type category. Water discharge of the building is 400 liters/minute; water pressure is 6,9 bar; Hose nozzle is 1,5 inch and maximum water flow required is 30 minutes. The floor area protected by hydrants is 800 m2, so that the need for hydrant boxes and pillars is calculated by equation (3).

The total hydrant box required for the building is 6 units which is placed on left and right side of each floor while the hydrant pillar requisited is 2 unit that installed at the front and back of the building.

Sprinkler System

The procedure for planning and installing an automatic sprinkler system for fire prevention in buildings refers to SNI 03-3989-2000. Because this laboratory building is classified as a mild to moderate fire hazard, the sprinkler used is 1/2” with a capacity (Q) = 80 liters/minute. Hole diameter is 0,5 inch; jet density is 2.25 mm/minute; water pressure is 2,2 bar; the maximum distance between sprinklers is 4,6 m;

and the distance to the wall is 1,7 m. Sprinkler coverage area is 11,9 m2. The calculation of the required sprinklers is calculated equation (4). Hence, the need for sprinklers for the entire building is 180 units with the placement location shown in Figure 3.

Figure 3. Sprinkler layout plan 1-story

Fire Alarm and Detector

Calculation of fire alarms and detectors refers to SNI 03-3985-2000 concerning procedures for planning, installing and testing fire detection and alarm systems for fire prevention in buildings. There is a multiplier factor based on the height of the room ceiling as shown in Table 4.

11. 8,5 – 9,1 34

Source: SNI 03-3985-2000

The height of each floor is 4,0 m so that the multiplier factor is 84%. Based on the results, the number of alarms and smoke detectors required on each floor is 10 units.

Evaluation of Ground Water Tank Volume

After analyzing the number and location active and passive fire protection installation, the next step is to evaluate the volume of water availability. The water source for this laboratory is planned to use water sources from the PGSD lab, so that it is necessary to evaluate the adequacy of water. The water demand during the extinguishing process (30 minutes = 1800 second) determined is shown in Table 5.

(liters) 2 136.800 liters

Total Amount of Water Required 640.800 ≈ 641.000 liters It can be seen from the Table 5 that the water requirement of the fire protection system for sprinkler and hydrant in the Laboratory Building is 641.000 liters.

Existing Ground Water Tank and Distribution Pump

Based on field observation and interviews from the building owner of PGSD building, the existing Ground Water Tank (GWT) volume is 143.550 liters as shown in Figure 4. According to field observation in PGSD water pomp building, the pump house water distribution system consists of a suction pump from a deep bore well and a water distribution pump. The water pump used is branded SHIMIZU PC-286 BIT and is included in the Jet Pump category which is commonly used as a deep well pump. The end of the suction pipe has an ejector that functions as an increase in thrust to be able to suck and push water at high speed.

The specifications of the pump have a Pressure Tank, a Maximum Total Head of 60 Meters, a Suction Capability of Up to 30 Meters, a Plastic Fan Cover (Anti-Rust), and a Suction Pipe of 1.25". The stability of the water pressure on the hydrant and sprinkler is regulated by a jockey pump to ensure that the water jet is regulated at a stable pressure during the fire suppression process. The jockey pump used has a capacity of 10 m3/h with the Groundfos CR brand. In addition, a diesel pump with a capacity of 3000 gpm is installed to ensure that water distribution remains available in the event of a power outage due to fire. The pumps are shown in Figure 5. The three pumps are installed in a pump house which is located behind the PGSD lab building.

It can be concluded that the existing water sources from PGSD ground water tank (143.550 liters) is not sufficient to extinguish fires in the event of a fire disaster in the laboratory building (641.000 liters).

Therefore, it is necessary to implement several alternatives such as adding a new ground water tank or providing a Siamese connection instead.

Fire hazard management

According to interview with building owner, team for fire hazard organization is not been established yet. Only evacuation road has been designed as shown in the Figure 6. Based on the regulation and standard of fire safety from minister of public work, a fire protection organization is compulsory for fire safety plan activity such as inspection, replacement, repair, audit of fire safety.

Figure 6. Evacuation routes and zones

4. Conclusion

In general, the results of the planning design have met adequate fire protection system standards, only the location of the fire extinguishers and sprinklers need to be reviewed with the appropriate positioning. The design of the evacuation route needs a zoning system so that there is no accumulation of users at one exit door when a disaster occurs. The existing volume of the ground water tank is only sufficient for the daily operational needs of water in the laboratory building. However, this amount is not sufficient in a fire hazard scenario. In addition, the need for a fire hazard management team in the building and the need for technical operational standards to maintain all components.
