Thanks guys, I didn’t even know about 3-26.  We will confirm everything
with FM before submitting.

When I have done “non-factory” projects with FM global (most recently a
retirement home) they were very flexible in modifying their requirements to
suit the project. In occupancies that don’t directly correlate to their
core business I have had good luck with compromises.



Cesar is right  – confirm all design guidelines in writing from FM if they
are any different from the ones spelled out in the data sheets.

Hi Dewayne.



Accord to 3-26 table 1. Both areas Seating areas and kitchen are a HC1
Hazard and sprinkler design is 0.1/1500 + 250 gpm using a 5.6 k factor
sprinklers.

Also you need to wait for FM insurance recommendations.

We are doing a small restaurant tenant in a strip mall that is insured by
FM Global.  I have contacted the GC asking for the FM contact but thought
maybe the forum could provide some insight.  1)Does FM allow reduced design
areas? 2)Seating area 01./1500 +100gpm and kitchen 0.15/1500 +250gpm sound
right?

Thanks,

Dewayne
