Obstructions to Sprinklers – Jay Stough
March 17, 2016
FreeThere are a lot of rules for obstructions found in chapter 8. This presentation will go over how to find your way around chapter 8 for the different types of sprinklers and their obstructions. Designers and fitters come across most of these at some time, but it always good to refresh ourselves on how to handle different obstructions and highlight things that designers and fitters tend to miss.
