I have always told people that sprinkler valves require 36" of clearance in
front of them. Now, being challenged, I don't know where I've come up with this
from. Is there a minimum clearance in the codes/standards?

There's a rule I remember but cannot find for the life of me. When is a hanger
required on the horizontal piping from a standpipe to a hose valve? I believe
it's 18" but cannot justify it.
Any help is greatly appreciated.

We use a bit of a mix but it sounds a lot like what you are describing.
Our fitters have iPads and iPhones. They get hardcopies of plans and will use
Procore when hosted by the GC to view our plans as well as Architectural,
Structural and other trades. We also have a server that can be remote
Seems silly that a threaded female x threaded female fitting in CPVC would even
exist?

Good morning Brian,
Your fitters will hate you if they have to set the main high towards the ridge.
The best way is to use a single main, hung low, with 1" or 1-1/4" sprigs to the
back to back sprinklers at the ridge. If you have a mechanical chase that
extends in to the attic, you may have to
We follow how they are listed. If the 3mm bulbs are spaced at SR, we utilize SR
5mm bulbs for adjacent standard coverage sprinklers.

AHJ's get really fun in a hurry when arguing semantics. Point this individual

I'm digging through coupling data sheets and I'm seeing that most are listed
for use in wet and dry systems even when they do not have the gap seal. Is
there a requirement for using gaskets that have this gap seal gasket or is it
more of a best practice thing?

Does anyone know of an Electrically Actuated Butterfly Valve for Fire

I am going through a very similar situation-2 story lobby with the floors zoned
separately. I couldn't find anything that says explicitly which floor to pick
this up from. One could certainly argue that it would be first floor based on
the room number following first floor numbering. I decided
By definitions, an attic is only an attic when the top side is the roof. If
it's in between floors, it's not an attic.

Check with local amendments to the code, I have seen some have 36" in front of
the pump or riser assembly only and some have 36" all sides.
