Standpipe systems shall be installed throughout <br /> buildings where the floor level of the highest story is located more than 30 feet above the lowest level <br /> of the fire department vehicle access, or where the floor level of the lowest story is located more than <br /> 30 feet below the highest level of fire department vehicle access. <br /> This shall apply if the finished top level floor is above 30 feet. <br /> 14. The Snohomish County Emergency Radio System is employed by the City of Everett Fire <br /> Department emergency crews and operates at 800 MHz. Large metal-framed or metal and concrete <br /> buildings can weaken the signal so that communication and,therefore, firefighter safety is <br /> compromised. This structure must meet the requirements of EMC 16.03, Section 510, which <br /> specifically addresses required radio system performance standards in this structure. Your attention <br /> to this feature early in the planning stages will help avoid a costly, last-minute retroactive <br /> installation of radio signal amplification antennae and other equipment.
