Floor-Mounted Obstruction Calculator
While it doesn't come up all that often, floor-mounted items can create obstructions for sprinklers just as anything hanging from a ceiling.

The MeyerFire Handbook, 2019 Edition
This book of visual references, frequently asked questions and flow charts is the fire suppression designer/engineer's go-to book of references. It's not a textbook, but rather a well-organized reference guide to support quality design, review & inspection at the pace you need to operate. If you enjoy the visual aspects of the weekly blog posts here, you'll love this highly-visual reference guide. Coming: Fall 2019 Have an idea you'd like us to make happen? Send it below - |
