Calculate the fire flow and duration required for a 60m by 120 m five story building. The structure is of fire- resistive construction with all interior vertical opening protected to preclude the spread of flames. Consider that restoration of the building included the installation of an automatic sprinkler system. The current occupancy is classified as having a high fire hazard. This building is well separated from other buildings in the area, except on one side where the separation is 20 meters.
