Rack storage is what the building is being used for.

What is the ESFR system design basis?  Racks or other storage or what?

Subject: [EXTERNAL] RE: ESFR and Obstructed Construction

With a 36' high building, the max spacing would be 10' apart and the esfr is 6' 
apart due to the beams. This is a 60 sq. ft. coverage area.  The esfr cut sheet 
state a minimum area of 64 sq. ft.,  64 sq. ft.  x (12) esfr is 768 sq. ft. 
minimum design area, would you have to add an esfr fire sprinkle in the calc to 
meet the 768 sq. ft. area or esfr are not allowed due to not meeting the 64 sq. 
ft. minimum per esfr sprinkler?

Thanks,

Subject: ESFR and Obstructed Construction

I am looking at a building 36" high that is using beams for the roof 
construction, they are spaced at 6'-0" on center and are 24" deep.

The sprinkler design is asking for ESFR but I am not sure if this will work, I 
know we can use ESFR in obstructed construction but my understanding is the 
heads location still needs to comply with the listing.

So based on this I would need a head in every bay created by the beams and the 
head would need to be 14" or 18" max from the deck.

Am I missing something?

Thank You
