Join us for a webinar to learn about the installation and discharge requirements for sprinklers located in (or omitted from) combustible concealed spaces. In addition to a basic overview of types of construction and combustibility, this webinar will focus on the installation requirements for concealed spaces not requiring sprinkler protection including the sixteen (16) construction arrangements that permit sprinkler omission. In addition, this webinar will discuss the application of standard spray and special sprinklers installed within combustible concealed spaces. Finally, this webinar will review the design and discharge requirements where the participant will learn how to properly apply the 3,000 sq. ft rule.
