Certified Fire Protection Specialist (CFPS) — Question 55

You are evaluating the storage arrangement to determine appropriate sprinkler system protection requirements. Which of the following is an important consideration when determining sprinkler system design requirements?

Answer options

• A. Building construction
• B. Storage height
• C. Type and number of fire alarms
• D. Indoor Hose Connections

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B because the height of storage can significantly impact the design and effectiveness of the sprinkler system. Factors such as building construction (A), type and number of fire alarms (C), and indoor hose connections (D) are relevant but do not directly influence the sprinkler design as much as storage height does.
