Fire Detector Mounting and Spacing at Structural Beams

Elements

About this detail

Fire detectors are mounted on smooth ceilings with obstructions four inches or less in depth, or spaced more than eight feet apart for beams greater than 18 inches deep requiring detectors in each pocket. For beams greater than four inches deep, a two-thirds derating is applied. When beams are less than 12 inches deep, detectors are placed either in the pocket or at the bottom of the beam.
