Sprinkler technology is increasingly complex, with many types of equipment making an impact on the industry. Only the 2002 edition of NFPA 13 provides clear, concise rules that apply to the full range of systems. With significant changes and a new, user-friendly format, it covers automatic sprinkler systems from concept to installation.
The 2002 NFPA 13 includes a new chapter with updated extracts of sprinkler system design and installation criteria from over 30 other NFPA codes and standards. In addition to this useful information, you'll access:
New installation criteria that meets the needs of special construction features including ceiling pockets, skylights, and stepped ceilings.
Updated concealed space requirements.
Complete storage design requirements and approaches, arranged by storage type.
The new Chapter 12 consolidates rules, plus presents design criteria for protecting storage with solid shelves.
A new section on the basics for residential sprinkler installation.
A special section for designs involving specific hazards.
You'll know exactly where to look for specialized requirements--such as the new criteria for protecting plastic motor vehicle components.
Expanded tables for early suppression fast response (ESFR) sprinklers. Choose the storage and building height for any arrangement.
