Dennis,
I believe Chapter 8.3.1.1 of NFPA 13 2002 edition provides you with the
needed horse power to show that you are allowed to use Specific
Application
sprinklers
when shown that they can provide superior protection.

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?
