How should we select the audible appliance DB rating?
I got a comment from client that product selection should not be based on Peak an-echoic DB value but based on UL 464 temporal value. I checked many products but could not come across such a thing. All datasheets of the products I checked...
Thank you.
That's good. If you are a graduate you can tell me if the online courses are good.
For starters, should I consider taking the below course.

Thank you Travis for the clarification.
You are right when you say its beyond my experience and expertise. I want to go beyond fire Detection which I currently do. I am trying to learn sprinkler systems by reading already designed systems, NFPA 13, and asking some designers whom I know. The...
Thank you Travis.
So, can we assume another hazard of EH1 in the same facility, Assume k=11.2.
Now, demand = 2000 X .30= 600 GPM. For the sake of discussion consider actual hydraulic calculation gave 750 GPM.
As explained to me earlier, the actual demand for the earlier discussed area would...
Initially, I simply could not believe it that such a small room would require such a big cross main but I understand your explanation. Most people I spoke to just multiply the actual room area times the minimum density and had been doing the wrong designs all this time.
So, in reality we don't...
I am new to sprinkler design.
Can you guide me how to do a hydraulic calculation for an area less than the minimum required area?
For example, for Extra Hazard group 2, min density and area =232m2 @ 16.3 mm/min. Consider my room is 96 m2. What will be the minimum flow for an area of 96 m2 ?
