Choose a suitable storage method for the water and for an emergency reserve for fire protection when there are no local rivers or lakes for water storage. Show how the water-supply piping would be connected to a wet-pipe sprinkler system for fire protection of the building and its occupants. Calculation Procedure 1. Determine a suitable water-meter size for the installation Refer to a water-meter manufacturer s data for the capacity rating of a suitable water meter. The American Water Works Association AWWA standard for cold water meters of the displacement type is designated AWWA C700-71. It covers displacement meters known as nutating- or oscillating-piston or disk meters which are practically positive in action.
