A 62 m by 80 m room in a warehouse will be protected by individual fire sprinklers spaced throughout the ceiling. Each sprinkler head covers a 4 m by 4 m area and will discharge approximately 180 liters/minute (L/min). Sprinkler heads are located in straight rows spaced at 4 m on center. For preliminary design, approximate the following: a. The minimum number of sprinkler heads requiredb. The minimum number of rows of sprinkler heads, if rows run transversely (widthwise) through the buildingc. The minimum number of rows of sprinkler heads, if rows run longitudinally (lengthwise) through the buildingd. The flow rate of the system, in L/min, based on the number of sprinkler heads
