On the shop drawing side of our work, most contractors have been using all QR for Light and Ord for quite a while. On the consulting side, we COULD specify something other than the minimum, but normally do not- I will discuss this latest thought (QR for Dry and PA, Ord Haz) with my AHJ, a.k.a. the Boss. Thanks, Brad

Thom Subject: RE: UFC 3-600-01 interpretation NFPA 13, after '96, requires QR for light haz. Would there be any value in terms of better FP if 13 also required QR for DRY and PA ORD1 and 2? _______________________________________________ Sprinklerforum mailing list [email protected] http://fireball.firesprinkler.org/mailman/listinfo/sprinklerforum For Technical Assistance, send an email to: [email protected] To Unsubscribe, send an email to:[email protected] (Put the word unsubscribe in the subject field)
