To expand on Mark’s comment, I tend to think start at the dust safety first, then sprinklers. I wasn’t bidding jobs, but I certainly saw some expensive solutions going the other way. Best. Bruce Verhei > On 10/15/2020 5:54 PM Mark.Phelps via Sprinklerforum > wrote: > > > What Craig said,

That design seems excessive. Based on all of the arrangements I've looked at, it's generally Extra Hazard (Group 2) due to the unknown commodities and extensive shielding. No sprinklers in the lockers as it is not an accessible space. Just the sprinklers at the ceiling level designed to discharge

Maybe you should have suggested to the ahj that it needed a total flooding inert gas system with optical detection as the primary protection system with a 6% AR /AFFF deluge system for redundancy. You just never know when someone might leave a box of Bic pens in their locker (Flammable liquid
