Pretty much. Unless there's a particular part of the code I'm blissfully ignorant about, you're correct - fixed pressures / flow balanced with the A/D overhead system (unless it's a Scheme A mess). Thanks, Mike Gallello

Is this correct or have you calculated rack sprinklers using the design area method?
