Scope

This document specifies the evaluation of the fire performance of water mist systems used for fire protection of non-storage occupancies.

EXAMPLE

Examples for non-storage occupancies are apartments, churches, concealed spaces, gymnasiums, hospitals, hotel rooms, libraries, museums, offices, restaurant seating areas, schools and university class rooms, unused attics.

Purpose

There is a need to set up minimum test requirements to properly evaluate water mist systems to be installed. We would like to activate the project as our other projects are far ahead enough.
