Figure 10: Heat detector spacing
—
beam construction (plan view)
Notes:
•
Detectors can be installed on the bottom of beams when the beams are less than 30 cm (12 in.) deep and
beam spacing is less than 2.4 m (8 ft.).
•
Beams less than 20 cm (8 in.) deep are considered flat ceilings. Heat detectors must be installted on the
bottom of the beams.
•
Spacing of beams deeper than 20 cm (8 in.) must be reduced by 1/3 of the listed spacing.
