A. There are many cases where NFPA 13 doesn’t require in-rack sprinklers for rack storage. The need for in-rack sprinklers depends on a number of factors, including the commodity stored, storage height, and encapsulation of products, type of sprinklers used, and the discharge criteria of the ceiling system.
