These aren’t really “designed”.

You select one based on the required/desired flow and discharge throw (hose 
stream distance)  you need to deal with the specific hazard.

To include one in a hydraulic calculation you would use an Equivalent K-factor 
for the monitor.

Subject: [EXTERNAL] [Sprinklerforum] Monitors

Good evening, I have a question for the group.

Do you know if there is a chapter (NFPA) or data sheet (FM) to use as guidance 
to design / calculate Fire protection Monitors?
