Suppression Design Charrette, February 27, Orlando

We will be conducting a unique research planning exercise at Supdet and I hope you can participate.

We are using the interactive workshop on Wednesday afternoon February 27th at Supdet in Orlando to take the first step to develop a research plan for three projects that have been on our list as projects of value to NFPA 13:V ictoria Valentine, National Fire Sprinkler Assocation, will lead a session on sloped sprinkler installations over storage; Matt Klaus, NFPA will lead a session on data needed to inform NFPA 13 obstruction rules; Steve Wolin, Code Consultants, Inc., will lead a session on high clearance sprinklers over operations (factory); Dan O’Connor, AON FPE will also lead a session on determining the equivalency between sprinklers and water mist.

The SupDet suppression program also has a strong focus on information for 13 – including exposed expanded plastics, lithium ion batteries, and Chapter 21. 

I hope you can join us in Orlando.
