Abstract:
A sprinkler regulation marking template comprising:a main member having an abutment portion, said abutment portion having a straight edge adapted for positioning against a ceiling proximate a sprinkler; said main member further having an extension portion extending from said abutment portion, said extension portion having a plurality of holes, each of said holes being positioned in spaced relationship to said straight edge whereby each hole is adapted for facilitating placing a mark on a structure beneath the ceiling such that said mark is positioned an associated pre-determined distance away from the ceiling for providing a visual indication of a spraying of the spraying area to prevent interference with functioning of the sprinkler; said extension portion having a distal portion, said distal portion having a face substantially parallel to and offset from a face of said abutment portion whereby said face of said distal portion is adapted for being positioned in spaced relationship to a planar structure abutting said face of said abutment portion when said face of said abutment portion is positioned against the planar structure; said holes being positioned to extend through said distal portion of said extension portion such that said extension portion is adapted for preventing contact of a rim around a selectable one of said holes for marking the planar structure to prevent smearing of the mark during use.
