This is very similar to the discussion we had a couple of months ago, about "Outside of the dwelling unit" design in 13R, and while you'd apply 13 to the space, if it had a concealed combustible space or attic above that area, the requirements of 13 would not extend to that space.

IF it is a 13R, then the entire building is 13R and a hose stream is not required. Take a peak at the annex A.6.8.2. The TC was a tad sloppy since we had this same issue on the old wording of 6.8.2. Until said otherwise, the philosophy that the entire building must qualify as a 13R should apply and Outside the Dwelling unit is still within that building. I say IF since a garage is the main occupancy that can be separated HORIZONTALLY and be considered a separate building.
