Another "failed coordination" scenario.   Can the ceiling be raised so
that 18" clear is possible?   Or taken out of the space?

This scenario does not fall within NFPA 13 limits of a minimum 18"
clearance.

Hughes Associates as done some performance based testing at their
facility.  You can contact them for assistance.  The system we have on
campus has the auto park feature to create flue spaces in the event of a
fire.  The compact shelves are tied into the fire alarm system to
accomplish this task.

I need input as to what type/arrangement sprinklers you would use over
the
top of accordion type filing cabinets like are used in offices, etc.
that
are on tracks and can be parted to create a single aisle between any two
adjacent cabinets (as you can see I'm struggling to come up with a
technical
name). The tops of these cabinets are 10" below a drop-in tile ceiling.
All
pipe is above this ceiling and using pendent sprinklers.

 

Thanks
