Review of Australian Standards. To keep abreast of progress in industry, Australian Standards are subject
to periodic review and are kept up to date by the issue of amendments or new editi ons as necessary. It is
important therefore that Standards users ensure that they are in possession of the latest editi on, and any
amendments thereto.
Full detail s of all Australian Standards and related publi cati ons wil l be found in the Standards Australi a
Catalogue of Publications; this information is supplemented each month by the magazine ‘The Australi an
Standard’, which subscribing members receive, and which gives detail s of new publications, new edit ions
and amendments, and of withdrawn Standards.
Suggesti ons for improvements to Australian Standards, addressed to the head off ice of Standards Australi a,
are welcomed. Notif ication of any inaccuracy or ambiguit y found in an Australi an Standard should be made
without delay in order that the matter may be investigated and appropriate action taken.

This standard was issued in draft form for comment as DR 92189.

PREFACE

This Standard was prepared by the Joint Standards Australia/Standards New Zealand
Committee on Automatic Sprinkler Installations FP/4 to supersede in part
AS 2118 —1982, SAA Code for Automatic Fire Sprinkler Systems.
This Standard is the result of a consensus among representatives on the joint committee to
produce it as an Australian Standard.
The revisions to AS 2118 have included Standards Australia’s requirements to keep
product and installation Standards separate. When complete the series will comprise:
