If there is a chart or list I don't think it would be simple. I tried doing a table for sprinkler requirements a few years ago, and after I got to the exceptions to the exceptions and one table taking away what another table gave, I just gave up. I salute anybody who can do it and make it understandable.

I have taken a course by the National Fire Sprinkler Association on sprinkler "trade offs" , about 3 times. At one time I had 3-4" binders from the courses, but I'm down to one now. The "binder" had almost every trade-off and nice set of height and area charts for quick reference. I would suggest trying to get the notebook from the NFSA. If worst comes to worst, PM me and we can talk about copying the note book I have.
