If protecting a corridor with residential sprinklers, I have always
calculated 4. If protecting with standard spray, 5.

Now if you need to do one for a storage occupancy, that is a pile I'm not
sure i'd want to step in...

Agreed. As builts would be nice, but never present. It's really a crap
shoot, and the contractor would need to decide if he/she was capable of
completing it correctly. I won't touch a storage occupancy for something
like this, and less likely to on a building that has multiple uses, flex
space
Does anyone on the forum have in their library a cut sheet F430 Thermal
Control Valve made by Grinnell? We found a few in an old mill building
protecting fire wall openings with spray nozzles.
Just curious if anyone had a cut sheet.
thanks,

If I remember correctly, you can convert your outlet (Flow and pressure) to
a K factor K=Q/√P then just solve for P with your flow number (Q/K)₂.

I don't see any reason you couldn't provide tie-in drains post drum drip
