Dear All

 

The NFPA 13 contains a great deal of obstruction rules in chapter 8. 

 

There is no mention of obstructions in the chapters relating to In-Rack. 

 

In a major warehouse I found all in rack sprinklers installed upright between 
the racks beams violating the obstruction rules of chapter 8  (As well as of 
the specific FMglobal instructions for in-racks).

 

The designer argues that there are no rules of sprinkler positioning between 
the racks and that the most important factor is to prevent damage to the 
sprinkler. 

 

Would appreciate your opinions.
