I'm a project engineer for a low-voltage company in Little Rock. One of our customers that has offices around the country has asked us to quote them a fire alarm in Akron.
We've done security work in this facility, but not fire alarm, and I'm curious if anyone knows of any special requirements in the Akron area. Do they just use IBC, or does Ohio have their own code, does the Akron fire marshal have his own requirements, etc....?
FWIW, I'm pretty familiar with fire alarm itself; it's about 90% of what I design, and I used to be a project engineer and installation manager with Simplex before the TYCO buyout, so fire alarm isn't alien to me; Akron just is.
I know the correct answer is "call the ahj", but it's 7 pm their time, and I thought I'd ask here. (My first post here, although I've searched & read thru quite a few. There's a lot of good info on this site.)
For that matter, even contact info for the Akron ahj would be appreciated.
Thanks for any input.
