Safespill ILDFA Design Guideline V5.0 (Released January 3rd, 2024).pdf
Jan 15, 2025, 12:05 AM UTC
The document serves as a design guideline for the Ignitable Liquid Drainage Floor Assembly (ILDFA) intended for new and retrofit aircraft hangar construction. It outlines the purpose of the ILDFA, which is to contain and remove ignitable liquid spills, thus preventing fire hazards. The guideline specifies critical elements such as floor layouts, trench spacing, and structural specifications necessary for effective ILDFA implementation. It describes connections for liquid detection systems, flushing requirements, and emergency protocols. Each hangar zone is designed to activate flushing systems based on spill detection, with structured guidance for installation practices, including concrete slab specifications and trench configurations. Additionally, it emphasizes compliance with safety standards, such as NFPA 409, and considers the operational requirements established by the U.S. military's engineering commands. The document is an essential resource for architects and engineers, ensuring the proposed designs meet functionality and safety standards while effectively addressing fire hazard risks associated with aircraft operations. This detailed guidance reflects best practices pertinent to government RFPs and facilitates public safety in aviation infrastructure development.
