We've done 13R for NAVFAC at .05, but they required that we arbitrarily double the design area as they also do for area/density calcs. So a four-sprinkler design became an 8-sprinkler design, with a 250 GPM hose stream allowance. However, this was a subjective ruling by the Navy's FPE (same person for three projects) and I'm sure that it's codified.
