We fit all the criteria re ceiling pockets to eliminate the sprinklers on a condo project except the local AHJ decided the wood glued to the drywall ceiling in the pocket created a combustible space which required sprinklers. Only meant an additional 20 or so sprinklers in an elevator lobby corridor so that we might protect the decorative ceiling with the pendent sprinklers. I want to retire.
