Notes: 1. Each fireplace should have 10 fires/hour.
2. Maximum fires per shift is 480 fires. Classes
larger than 160 students can be accommodated by
reducing student fire exposure or extending the
shift.
3. Great Lakes should train additional students with
the same number of fires.
4. The propane demand is based on a gas pressure at the
burner of 7 kPa except for the bilge fire which is
14 kPa.
5. The design propane demand for the structure is
(5 + 31 + 2) x 2 = 76 L/s.
