Is this above a ceiling? Did the Fire Marshal sign off on this? If
this is not at least somewhat fire retardant, there could be a huge
problem. The Station fire spread via foam on the ceiling. What you
have is probably better, but could still be a significant problem.
See if the Building or Fire departments has any info on this.
There were some hypothetical models run on if The Station had
sprinklers. If you could get a copy of that, it might give you some
clue as to how to design a system (this sounds like performance
based, doesn't it?) I don't think you can just figure on what is below.
I wonder if this could be a good application for intumescent paint?
Sounds like the proverbial can-o-crawlers

Hello sprinklerforum,
I have been ask to quote a sprinkler system in a deli/bar. During the
walk through I found out they have gone between the open bar
joist and glued
foam insulation panels to the bottom of the decking with liquid nail.
This is the 4" thick panels typically used on top of the decking. They
can not tell me exactly what kind of foam it is now that it has been
painted black.....
I am open to suggestions.
