you do not have to assign the maximum coverage to all the sprinklers in the remote area but use the actual coverage for each one.

Good morning.
Thanks to all of you for your great answers.
I see this in my first training with AFSA in 2004 (great raining) but once
you are in the field, you have a lot of questions.
I see a lot of times some designers who use in all cases the maximum
coverage per sprinkler to do their hydraulic calculations, and when I ask them about the "As", they tell me that us the maximum coverage (based on the hazard classification) is a "Best Practice" because you do not need to find what is the largest sprinkler coverage in the hole system. With this forum,
now I know I always need to use the maximum "As" in my most hydraulic
demanding area, and that value will be used for the calcs.
Regards and thanks to all of you.
