FM global and ESFR sprinklers
FM global and ESFR sprinklers
(OP)
I remember reading somewhere that FM Global does not require the inclusion of up to two ESFR sprinklers beneath an obstruction in the hydraulic calc like NFPA 13 does as long as you pipe to the head with the same diameter pipe as the branch lines.
I scanned through FMDS 2.0, 3.0 and the 8 series but cannot find it. Anybody familiar with this that can point me in the right direction?
Thanks in advance.

"The additional sprinklers installed under the obstruction as recommended above do not need to be added to the hydraulic design of the ceiling-level sprinkler system."
