I think it would be a one head calc (assuming only one head per
balcony and they are not contiguous), but it is 5 AM and no coffee yet.

I need a quick opinion from some 13R experts.
13r condo with the first floor divided in half front to back and
then the front half is divided into 4 parking areas seperated by
fire walls. The front wall is completely open and each garage serves 2 units.
6.8.2.2 states that each compartment can nothave openings greater
than 50 sq.ft. I am interpreting this to mean openings into
adjacent compartments not to the atmosphere and therefore a 4 head
calc would be appropriate using dry heads flowing in accordance with NFPA 13R.
Thoughts please...
