You may need to consider it an obstruction, depending on its placement, but
there is no way currently to attach a in-duct sprinkler head to the fabric
type ducts. (Fabric Air or other) The duct is supported intermittently and
inflates as fans turn on or deflates as they go off line.

Inside the duct?

No I wouldn't.  

Is the rest of the space protected with sprinklers?

Hi there:

I just recently reviewed a set of drawings of a swimming pool facility. The
ventilation system is using some kind of 2 meter diameter fabric ducts C/W
small orifices as diffusers. Should we consider it as combustible concealed
space which requiring sprinkler heads inside?

THX alot
