It's no where in either, to my understanding. However, FM is stand
alone. So, if you want to use their criteria, it is meant to be used
with ALL of their datasheets and input from the field engineer.
If the FM criteria is more stringent than NFPA 13, then you can use the
more stringent criteria as NFPA 13 is a minimum criteria.

I have a quick question that I need a fast answer to. Where is it in NFPA 13
2013 Edition that you cannot mix the two design standards? (I.E. you either
design per NFPA 13 or FM Global. You cannot pick and choose.)
Thanks,
