What spec or drawings did you bid to?
If design-build I don't see what the problem is.
If he spec'ed "traditional coverage over the increased area" or fancy words
to that effect you probably have a problem unless you identified the
deviation in the bidding process.

Subject: Slippery Slope
I have a project we designed the Dry System with 7 SD Attic heads. The ME
wants the Area and Slope increases per 11.2.3.2.4 and 11.2.3.2.5. I pointed
out the listing of the Attic heads but all he says is " If it's OK with the
Local AHJ, he takes " no exception to that design approach" but he will not
stamp the drawings saying this, even tho he DID stamp the first set "
rejected/ resubmit"!
LOcal AHJ requires plans to be stamped by the EOR or the Architect prior to
submission, and the Architect won't stamp them " because".
Trying to build a case that what we did is " per NFPA 13 and industry
standard.
Any thoughts?
