    This is very tall order. There is not enough space in here to explain all the things involved. You need to read many NFPA codes.

    In simple terms the distance between stand pipe should be maximum 30 meters.

    As For water requirement use a software to calculate flow required then check with local authorities or NFPA code for the duration
