Double check the occupancy classification. If it's still considered an R3 (single family), then 13D should be ok. If a different occupancy classification such as an "I" then it's no longer considered a single family but a commercial hence a full 13 system may be required. The local building and/or fire code should dictate if a sprinkler system and which type of sprinkler system is required in a given occupancy. Then the specific standard will tell you how to install it.
Building/Fire Code= Where to install sprinklers NFPA Standards= How to install sprinklers. Hope this helps.

In my state the entire building can be 13D and designed as one dwelling unit. _______________________________________________ Sprinklerforum mailing list [email protected] http://lists.firesprinkler.org/mailman/listinfo/sprinklerforum To Unsubscribe, send an email to:[EMAIL PROTECTED] (Put the word unsubscribe in the subject field)
