Momentive Performance Materials

Texas City, TX

RAN Fire Protection Engineering provided comprehensive fire protection design and construction administration services for Momentive Performance Materials, a plant located in Texas City, Texas. The project involved the design of a new fire pump house, intended to house a 5,000 gallons per minute (gpm) at 150 pounds per square inch (psi) fire pump, along with a new 12-inch water loop and associated hydrants throughout the facility. A sprinkler system was also designed for the pump house per NFPA-20 and NFPA-13 requirements, as well as a fire alarm system. RAN’s role encompassed site documentation, development of detailed construction documents for bidding and permitting, bid phase support, and construction administration, culminating in a final site visit and punch list.

New York State Capitol Building

Albany, NY

The NYS Capitol Building houses the New York State Governor’s Office and the New York State Legislature.

Services Provided:

  • Code Analysis                                       
  • Fire Pump Design
  • Fire Alarm System Design    
  • Preservation of Historical Building

 

The building was completed in 1899 at a cost of $25 million, a modern day equivalent to roughly half a billion dollars. RAN Fire Protection Engineering, P.C. commenced work on the NYS Capitol project to address the existing level of fire protection.

The project involved the investigation of the existing fire pump arrangements to assess measures concerning flow problems. The design required the removal of three fire pumps, which allowed for consolidation into one fire pump with emergency backup power. The project also included the upgrading of the fire department hose valves on all eight standpipes throughout the building. The design increased the functionality and general reliability of the fire protection system in its entirety.

Vermont Air National Guard

South Burlington, VT

RAN Fire Protection Engineering assisted with the commissioning of emergency voice communication systems. Furthermore, RAN provided extensive troubleshooting and coordination of multiple engineering disciplines and trades to achieve success to ensure the project met all construction deadlines and needs. RAN’s services allowed for all F-16s to be sent away, in order for 20 F-35A fighter jets to be delivered. As of 2019, the Vermont Air National Guard was the first Air National Guard unit to acquire the F-35A fighter jet.
