I was present as a workshop manager in this project. The final status of the project was 1.000.000$ This project was designed to implement the infrastructure of the fire pipeline and fire alarm system. Project Summary: Sea water is sucked from the sea by a pump and transferred into underground pipes and finally directed to hydrants and fire boxes. Because we wanted to use sea water, we had to build a utility dock on the water at a distance of 20 meters from the land. Due to the volume of sea water and the long distance from the pump suction site as well as the cavitation phenomenon, the pumping station cannot be built on land. To build a pumping station in the water, we first built a metal dock and then we restrained this dock with 4 metal piles that were driven into the sea. We implemented a pumping station on the wharf and used a bridge to access the wharf. At the same time, we dug and laid polyethylene pipeline 16 times for the water transmission system and implemented fire hydrants with monitors in the required places. We also implemented dry and wet fire extinguishers in other places. This system was automatically activated by reducing the pressure at the beginning of the route. In this way, if the hydrant or fire hose was activated in a place, then due to the decrease in pressure in the pumping station, the pumps started to suck sea water. We built 4 pumps in the pumping station. 2 jockey cargo pumps to compensate for small pressure drops and one large electric pump to compensate for noticeable pressure drops. In addition to these 3 pumps, we installed a diesel pump for power outages. The fire alarm network included push buttons and fire alarm sirens, so that we installed fire push buttons in different places and when they are activated, our sirens sound. We installed a central fire alarm board in the port administration building, which showed the location of the activated fire department.
