I am looking at a 25,000 sq foot former manufacturing facility that is being 
renovated and a wet system is being provided. A storage area- 4700 sq ft. 
will contain rolled up rugs (nylon type  and latex foam pads) that will be 
stored on 12 foot high racks along with boxes of water based adhesive and 
carpet tiles. The storage area has a 20 foot high ceiling with 30” steel joists 
and masonry construction.  I was told that by an outside source that FM Global 
has design criteria for this type of material. 
Problem is the water supply is 55 static and 45 at 920 gpm residual. and 1808 
gpm  at 20 psi (this was projected by the water provider.). 

I am questioning whether this is enough water for this type of hazard. Any 
thoughts?
