Nope, if you have a building that is not sprinklered in accordance with
NFPA 13 (and you don't because there are unsprinklered areas beyond
those that are allowed to be unsprinklered by NFPA 13) you have an
unsprinklered building.

It's for fire flow from hydrants. I guess I'm wondering if we can
pro-rate the unsprinklered percentage. If we use 50k sqft with no credit
for sprinklers and 300k sqft at a 75% reduction and add them together or
something to that effect.

Tables B and C of the IFC ( I think) list the flows.  An intersting
question arises..., if it is not fully sprinkled... I believe you do not
get the nice reduction?.. Is this what you are looking for ?
