This one is for anyone with marine experience. Ref: NFPA 13 (2013) 26.4.12.6. This is under the sub heading of Alarm Signals and Devices. “Sprinkler zones shall not encompass more than two adjacent decks or encompass more than one main vertical zone.”
The AHJ is saying that the sprinkler systems have to be separated in this manner. My thought is that this only deals with the alarm zones and not the sprinkler system. I have seen this similar situation on the commercial side where there were multiple alarm fire zones on one floor with only one sprinkler system zone. Any feedback is welcome. Dale F.
