Dear Olson: Yes. You must complete all the required sprinklers in order to
achive the calculated from the formula Number of open sprk= Design Area /
Spkr Coverage Area (rounded to the next integer number).

Roland, as I have said before, I like being right, but I love being corrected
when I am not :). I think you are right and I am wrong regarding the
interpretation
no argument from me on that Ron :), designers do create!

I had this same situation in a gymnasium, I crossed the peak and picked up the
additional heads on the other lines to maintain the required distance along the
branchlines as this would be the worst case scenario IMHO

13 does address this. I am out so I can't find the exact section right now.
But, stop at your peak and pick up additional heads on the same cross main.
Since you use AS, just put both remote areas on and see which is most
demanding.

Hey Cliff,
Hope all is right in LA. Below is NFPA 13 (2007 edition) regarding your
question.

number of sprinklers to fulfill the 1.2 requirement, the
design area shall be extended to include sprinklers on adjacent

Brad,
I may be wrong but it seems to me that the reference to 'branch lines with
sufficient number of heads' is referring to heads
The numbers of sprinklers is on EACH branch line and the plural is
used to indicate it can be more than one individual branch line in the
remote area. The objective is to maximum the amount of water flow
