St. George, UT (SGU) is moving its airport and requiring fire suppression systems (sprinklers)to be built into either existing or hangars to be moved from the old SGU. Sprinklers are not required by NFPA (National Fire Protection Association) 409 which is the basis for both the IFC - International Fire Code and IBC - International Building Code.

My question and request: What can any of you tell me about your airports and hangars...are suppression systems required in Group III hangars? (Typically what we have <18' doors and less than - oops I forget - like 16,000'sq) Seen any with "2 hour" walls, doors, etc? Something like 4 sheets of 5/8 drywall.

Anecdotally, have you witnessed any hangar fires? Were they sprinklered or not?

Thanks, there are about 50-60 hangar owners here that I'm trying to help (myself also), your help would be appreciated very much.
