all existing exits and fire protection systems shall be continuously maintained in

the Consultant will provide equal safety. Those portions occupied by the campus
must be available for their use 24 hours a day, seven days a week during the

applicable State and Federal codes and regulations. All areas under construction
must be fully protected by installing a Temporary Fire Alarm system with heat
detectors which reports back to the existing building system, or by use of the
existing Fire Alarm system. If the existing building system is used during
construction, all smoke detectors must be changed out to heat detectors and
changed back upon completion of the project. The heat detectors shall be turned
over to the University upon project completion. All Temporary Fire Alarm system
components, and or devices added to the existing building Fire Alarm system
must be compatible with the existing Fire Alarm system and be capable of
