Ah, the joys of fire protection engineering questions. It's like a treasure hunt, but instead of finding buried treasure, you get to find the right pressure value. Exciting stuff!

I see your point, but I still think A) 20 psi (1.4 bar) makes more sense based on the design pressure requirements

Hmm, I think I remember learning about this in my fire protection class. Time to dust off the old textbook and see if I can figure out the right answer.

Okay, let's see. 20 ft high storage in a 35 ft building? That sounds like a pretty standard setup. But all these pressure values... I'm going to have to break out the calculator for this one.

That seems more reasonable for the design pressure.

Wait, what? ESFR spunkier? Is that some kind of new-age fire suppression system I'm unaware of? I feel like I need a translator just to understand this question.
