What does the structural design notes sheet provide? Is it Seismic
Category C or higher. If so, bracing is required on fire sprinkler
systems. I don't think the seismic maps really apply any longer. You
need to know the Seismic Design Category, then you need the Ss values so
you can calculate your bracing.

Can someone with experience in the area tell me if Seismic bracing is required
in Fredrick Maryland? (21701) According to the maps I found online at appears
to be the same seismic category as central PA, but not having worked in the
area before I wanted to be sure there wasn't some local requirement.
