George, I did an omni max dome a few years back so I know what you are up against. Start with checking with the AHJ & see what k-factor they require for a 60' high ceiling, thats the first problem. One way or another you have to cover all the floor area, if that can be done with heads only above the screen then you're in business.

Subject: Help!! Sprinkler in Planetrium


Dear Sprinkler Experts,

I am new to the forum. Besides a "Hi" to yall, I am desperately seeking suggestion or reference regarding the "Sprinkler installation in a PLANETARIUM" which possesses a (60ft dia) semi-spherical dome screen (made of white paint coated matellic plate with small holes). Our current plan is to keep all those sprinker heads above the dome screen. Is it a workable design?

Since we are lack of local technical reference, can anyone throw me some light regarding the normal practice, if the sprinkler heads should be above the dome screen. If yes, what other concerns/attention should be paid?

Thank you so much,
George Lau
Macau S.A.R.
