Answer: See attached 5 Drawings for the Fire Alarm system; After reviewing the project details, it has been determined that **no SPRINKLER drawings are required** for this particular project, the contract will be based on a parts and time repair agreement for the sprinkler system, with no testing included. This decision is based on the nature of the project and the specific scope of work involved. However, in cases where the project involves repair work or modifications to the existing sprinkler systems within the building, detailed sprinkler drawings may be necessary and will be provided at time of work. It is important to note that the absence of drawings does not compromise the quality or compliance of the repair work.
