Dear Sam,
Before we can really compare: where in the codes did you find a
design area of 139 m2 for the storage areas in the warehouse?

Dear Friends..
Need some help regarding foam sprinkler systems.
I need to design foam sprinkler system for a paintroom,which is a
part of a large warehouse.
I have considered water sprinklers for the rest of the warehouse and
need foamsprinklers for the paintroom area.
The problem I face is that for doing hydraulic calculations for foam
sprinklered area,
1) how much area I have to consider?
>From NFPA 16 its written total design area shall be 465 m2.
for me it seems little big as my entire room is only 500 m2.
IS this the area to be considered???or am i missing something????
why such a big difference in area between watersprinkler(139m2) and foam
sprinkler system.(465m2)?
Regards & Wishes
Sam B
