I've got a gypsum board mfg. facility.  Several areas are unsprinkled as
permitted by the IFB due to the lack of hazard present and building
separations.  I also have hazardous storage, paper storage and offices
which are sprinkled, again in accordance with the IFB and IFC.  The AHJ
is saying that if we sprinkler anything then EVERYTHING needs to be
sprinkled regardless of what the building code says based on 8.1.1(1).
"Sprinklers shall be installed throughout the premises."

Does anyone have a formal interpretation on this sentence?  

If he has his way I'd have to protect 500,000 sf of finished gypboard.
