hello
in ordinary hazard sprinkler cover 12.1m2 .
i divided 4*3 m but i find out in NFPA13 verssion 2016 (Where the distance between sprinklers on the
branch line exceeds 12 ft (3.7 m) or the distance between the
branch lines exceeds 12 ft (3.7 m), the number of sprinklers
for a given pipe size shall be in accordance with Table 23.7.3.5.)
question:
1- if i use 4*3 m is it acceptable.
2- if i want to use NFPA13 instruction in which page can i find table 22.5.3.4 (Note: For other pipe and tube sizes, see Table 22.5.3.4.) or it is mistake from NFPA.
thanks

1) 4m x 3m is acceptable provided the necessary adjustment is made (table 23.7.3.5) when doing pipe schedule method for systems under 465 m².
2) Is a mistake. It's actually referring to table 23.7.3.4.
