Intake plenum? Do you mean exhaust plenum? Tony
-----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of George Medina Jr Sent: January 10, 2011 6:53 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: sprinklers in duct I had to flow heads in the pit, intake plenum, exhaust duct, etc. except the mixing room when i used to design the spray booths for Blowtherm. That's what the A.H.J. usually required. I was able to get a compromise with them allowing me to use different orifice sizes in different areas of the booth so as not to have to install a 6" riser for all the overage.

Also, there is the nebulous statement "the water supply shall be sufficient to supply all sprinklers likely to open in any one fire incident..." How does one go about determining the number of sprinklers likely to open that would be reasonable and satisfy the AHJ as well as the attorney for the plaintiff?
