Well that sounds good, but did you just make that up? Or is it written 
somewhere? I seem to remember reading somewhere that a mechanical room could be 
classified the same as the occupancy it served. Light for light, ordinary for 
ordinary, etc.  or maybe I just made that up?

It's capacity for, and the historical practical application of such spaces as 
storage rooms.

Just out of curiosity, what makes the mechanical room of an office building be 
ordinary hazard?

John,

You should not have an issue with the design as described.  Light and ordinary 
are commonly mixed, no separate supply main is necessary.

Subject: Light & OH1 Hazard From Same Riser

I apologize for such a simple question, but I would greatly appreciate some 
guidance: 

I have a 22,000 sqf light hazard office space with a 750 sqf mechanical room 
that I've identified as ordinary hazard 1.  The entire ceiling space is an open 
14' concrete beams and roof deck, and the mechanical room is separated by 
sheetrock and self-closing doors.  The riser is in the mechanical room and I 
have 7 upright sprinkler heads fed off the cross main pipe feeding the light 
hazard office space.  What code allows me to design this way or must I create a 
separate riser feed for each hazard? 


Best Regards,
