The rule this demonstrates

Head-to-head spacing (R1): every sprinkler's throw must reach the next sprinkler, not the edge of its spray. A sprinkler applies the least water at the end of its throw, so its neighbour has to make up the difference.

What this design does not show

Uniformity (CU) of 61.6% is an honest number, not a boast. CU says how evenly the water lands: 100% is unreachable in practice and domestic systems typically sit between 55% and 75%. We publish it because a wholesaler's quote will not show it at all.

How this design was made

The site geometry (lawn, house, paths, beds, tap) was drawn the way a user would draw it. Everything else — sprinkler placement, nozzles, arcs, zoning, pipe routes, hydraulics and the bill of materials — was computed by the IrriForge engine from the Hunter and Rain Bird design manuals. The numbers on this page are generated by a script in the repository, so a change in the engine or the catalogue changes them immediately.
