Depends how old the building was. Lots of older buildings don’t have fire sprinklers.
If you manufacture sprinklers, you wouldn’t think a building code would be necessary to motivate you to protect your business.
Yep.
5.56mm
I guess that would make sense if you manufactured fire sprinklers, but I read this as they’re manufacturing irrigation piping which might include irrigation sprinklers— an entirely different thing from fire sprinklers. It would indeed be ironic for a fire sprinkler company of any kind to burn down.
“These places are essentially part of our infrastructure and it sure feels like it is being taken out.”
After election 2020 and the Covid debacle, I can see where (too many of you) are buying into this “food production conspiracy”.
BUT, ITS NUTS!
And YOU PEOPLE attack Alex Jones?
When sprinklers are properly designed to match the fuel load they can usually contain a fire. When you have a massive fuel load like ABS or plastic pipe and it is stacked the water from a sprinkler may not reach a fire underneath. It is also easy for a large fuel load fire (like this one apparently) to overwhelm a common sprinkler system.
Plastic pipes are not easily ignited but once they do they melt and create a very intense and noxious fire.
The megalopolis of Wadena, Minnesota.
The population of Wadena was 4,325 at the 2020 census.
CITY?
It makes the “City of EVIL” (Ithaca, NY) a metropolis (it is NOT) by comparison.
“Ithaca, New York Population 2022. Ithaca is a city located in Tompkins County New York. With a 2020 population of 31,371”
Isn’t Wadena the town that was wrecked by an E5 in the movie Twister?
Wakita, OK.
Ah, thanks.
Very close memory, though! Very close.

I see that the movie “Twister” was based on Oklahoma, but did find a three-part documentary (Discovery channel) following storm chasers that concludes with them in a big tornado in Wadena.
Probably using Willy Peter as an accelerant to make sure the destruction is thorough and complete.
